Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. and the peace of God which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

Today's Happenings

Today had a little of this and that.
We did try to get most of our school done this morning. We finally decided why stress it when Dad and Drew are gone tomorrow, we will finish. Made the day a lot more fun for all of us.
So Hannah and Grandma made monster cookies this afternoon. These are Davids favorite and he will be traveling tomorrow, so it will be a special treat for the boys in the car. These cookies are mostly peanut butter and oatmeal, no flour, and one of the only sweet things that will tempt David's non-existent sweet tooth--wish I had that problem!!
And I caught Drew and Caleb working on fixing bike tires. Drew was not happy with me taking this, so I missed him testing out Hannah's new tire on her purple bike!!! Yep, he rode it across the street and back--that would have been a great picture!
David wanted his tire fixed so he could ride his bike some in Eugene tomorrow. Drew will be taking his first college visit to the University of Oregon. It has the best running program in the nation right now, and he has some good friends there who are living in a Christian House and really want him to come up next year. We are all praying like crazy for the Lord's leading in this big decision.
I finally set up an appointment with the doctors on Monday. Need to have confirmation that my self diagnosis of plantar fasciitis is correct. I am fairly sure it is what is going on, but the pain levels are not really settling down like they should with all the self treatment. So we are praying for some big relief this weekend or we will just get it x-rayed to make sure.

Off to get dinner ready for one of David's out of town running buddies and his daughter, then maybe off to softball tonight with the little ones.

Hey Friend,

Don't have your email address on my laptop. Sorry!

Hope you're still planning on having us crash at your place tomorrow night (Sunday). We are hoping/planning to arrive late afternoon, if that works for you.

I don't have your phone # or address either. Smart woman, I know. :)

So, could you either email me tonight with phone #, address, directions, etc... (I'll check emails in the morning before we hit the road.) Or ... could you call me during the day (360) 303-4986.

Looking forward to seeing you and your sweet family.
