Blanche turns 92!

Yesterday was Blanche's 92nd birthday and she's already planning ahead for her 100th!  We had a delicious dinner at The Fish House and added a few books to her Kindle. 



We pick up Connor and Kelleigh shortly from their week at church camp.  Originally Kelleigh was adamantly against going.  On Thursday night, her birthday, she called quite late which is very unusual given they never have in the past.  She was excited to share with us that she had accepted Christ and was being baptized on Friday.  She went on to tell me that she had cried a lot, had a lot to ask forgiveness for, and she was the happiest she has ever been.  It was as if I was talking to another child!  She called again last night to tell me about her day, asked three times if I could set up an appointment to see her counselor today, and about the new friends she had made.  While she is a little homesick, she has had an amazing time and wish it wasn't ending!  She is anxious to share her news with Ryan as he is allowed to have us visit on the 13th.  We serve a great God!
