Hi!
I hope you are surviving this heat... I am hanging in there - thankfully cocooned in our bedroom and basement living room. I have never been so blessed than by the window air conditioner my in-laws put in our bedroom window. It keeps our bedroom nice and cool and even helps the living room from heating up too much. Poor Eric is left sleeping with a few quilts while I can barely handle the sheet. But thankfully only 2 more weeks and then we can return to normal, at least temperature wise.
This past weekend we were so blessed to get to travel up north to Escanaba where we were able to share at Lakeside Christian Church. It was wonderful to get to meet the people there and share with them our heart for the youth and young adults in Somerset. The congregation was so welcoming and encouraging. After we shared our vision we had a time of question and answer, I was really excited to hear the questions and interest that the families had for us. It is always great to get to interact with the body of Christ. We felt so loved and uplifted as we drove home (well Eric did the driving - he's my hero).
We are excited to build a relationship with the church and hope to see them again before we leave. Plus this gives us a chance to introduce Stephen too.
Side note: On the way home we stopped in Marionette, to grab some lunch. We stopped at this small hometown family restaurant. They had great food but the best part was they served homemade rootbeer in a frosted glass. Eric was soo excited! We decided he should buy a refill (sometimes treats are worth it) when the waitress came around and refilled his cup for free.... oh he was a happy guy!
I love that we get to have these small little moments on this adventure of life.
Also just to note, newsletters are out slightly late this month, sorry about that- between Eric finishing his last class (HE GOT AN A!) and the doctor appointments for baby we got a little behind.
God Bless,
