57 Days

We are getting more excited!
We have friends in Hawaii right now and can't wait to see pics and hear how their trip went!
57 DAYS!

We're back!

We got home late Monday night after a whirlwind visit in Omaha! All the visits with friends and family were so wonderful! It really makes the drive home hard as we discuss and wholeheartedly agree that we both truly miss Omaha! The easy driving, all the new places to shop and eat that are opening up, and of course: our friends and my side of the family.

Michelle's baby shower and Rachel's wedding were so much fun! We had a great time and it was fun to see so many people at one time!

We are excited to go back to Omaha for Thanksgiving and my mom is coming down here in 2 weeks!

Seventy plus One!

We are really amazed at how fast time is flying!
Praise the Lord we are so busy!

71 days to go!

The Road to Omaha

I love that phrase when a team makes it into the CWS! It is all over ESPN and several other stations for weeks leading up to every June for the College World Series.

We are on the road to Omaha today!

We are going up for our friend, Rachel's wedding, a baby shower for our friend from Michigan, Michelle, catching up with friends, and a myriad of errands/appointments!

Being that we're up at 4am, sleep is not on the To Do List!

God is so faithful!

It's really simple but I am still in awe of how effective prayer is!

Thank you for praying!

Today at 11am, Walt got an email about LEAD. He was not selected.

We are a little bummed as we've had several pieces of discouraging news this year but are still hopeful to get some good news soon!! It is nice to have closure on this issue! (It was a 3 month process from application to selection notification.)

Still waiting on LEAD...

Some of you may remember us asking for prayer for Walt's interview for the LEAD program. He was told he would find out mid-to-late July and he has still not heard back yet. (It is August, right?) No news is good news for right now!

Please pray that we would find out soon!

Helen

Thank you for praying for Helen! She is doing quite well. She had her back surgery on Thursday and was able to start sitting up on Monday night! She has been emailing ever since! She can also tell you which shows are worth checking out on TV or not! She gets to go back to work Monday!

Love ya, Helen!
