Amazing Sharon!






Papa is ready for the wedding!


Sharon and I got Dad to go and get measured for a new suit for Christy's wedding! As we walked in the door he said, "I think I've been had!"

Kyle is in the house!





We enjoyed our ever social, Kyle. Surprisely, he made friends in Huntsville!?!?! We had such a great time with him!
John David was with us while Emily was gone on her Mission trip. He loves Papa!

Sharon,
We need to know how this couch looks in here. (It's from our sitting room)

Tuesday, July 3, 2007



It is Tuesday morning, July 3 at 6:15, Mom has made coffee and her and Dad are reading the paper in the side courtyard. I'm "blogging"! It's a quiet morning, until.... everyone (Scott, Kyle, Seth, John, David & JohnDavid - Emily is on a mission trip to Slovokia) wakes up!





Well it all started yesterday morning, when Kyle and Seth said they were going to "pick up" some info at the Lexus dealership. It is located about 2 miles from our house. They called and said come out to the driveway - a saleman drove it for them to see. It was love at first sight - although they had 2 to choose from and mom chose the white with beige interior. They will really enjoy pulling it in the garage right up to their door out of the weather!

The joys of being a grandparent!

Dana & Ward White came by with Millie, Dana's step mom. Millie lives in Huntsville. It was so good to see them!

Welcome to ALABAMA! Yes, we have EGGS!




Thankfully the frig had EGGS! The barley colored room is Seth's bedroom. It is above Mama & Papa's apartment. They were tired after their goodbyes and trip. We are thankful Kyle was able to drive them down. God has been so faithful to direct all of our steps in this move!

They're HERE in ALABAMA!

Passport Miracle





The passport miracle! Seth's passport arrived about 24 hours before we were to leave on our Ukraine Mission trip. God used a friend of Scott's in New Hampshire to make it possible. The issue date on it is JUNE 8! So everything was done on Friday and then we tracked it online and it flew all night and was in the FED-EX delivery truck at 8:26 this morning and it arrived at our door at 11:30am. God is good - all the time! May He use us in a special way to share His Story these next 11 days. We will be holding a VBS in 2 villages and also in 2 orphanages. Our men will renovate a building into a church that our church has purchased for a group of believers in the village. What a privilege to represent our LORD! We appreciate your prayers during this trip.





Well, next week the addition is ready for the cabinets, grout for the tile in the bath, sinks (kitchen and bath) and it will be close to being finished! We used the same color walls, carpet, tile and hardwood that we did in our house. It really ties it all in. I can't wait for all the family to see it! Hopefully the mover can just go ahead and set up Mom and Dad's bedroom when they come on Tuesday.

House is SOLD!





Mom and Dad's Saturday morning breakfast crew - the ladies gave mom a charm bracelet with each lady giving her charm with a special meaning. Also we celebrated mom's 75th birthday! Yes, every day is a gift, right, mom? We missed Pam. She had already planned a trip for that weekend. What special friends mom and dad have! Also, Lawrence Swicegood was visiting also. Oh, the stories we can tell about growing up with the Swicegood boys!


Hardwood and carpet going in today!
