An Eventful Week

*** Note: I typed this post on Oct. 25th, but am just now adding it on the blog (0n 11/2).

Much has occurred since our last entry. Most significant was the passing of my (Amy's) grandma last Thursday, 10/16. She had been sick for some time. The funeral was very nice. Mom spoke and shared some things about Grandma, including memories gathered from her children & grandchildren. She also shared how Grandma had trusted Jesus before saying she was ready to go. Here is the link to the slideshow that was played if anyone is interested:

Last Saturday before we left for the funeral in Macon, David & I took the kids to the Oconee Fall Festival. Then John went to his first UGA game.

Wednesday, the kids and I went to Atlanta with my mom who was on Fall Break. We met up with my sister, saw her house, toured Fernbank Museum, watched the planes take off and land at Peachtree Dekalb Airport, then visited longtime Orlando friends, Jeanice, Mona and Jodi Young & kids. Quite the day. As I type, I can't believe we fit all that in, but it was fun.

Last night, the kids spent the night at my mom's and David & I drove to Atlanta to see a sweet little patient of his who has been through a lot lately. Though I won't give details, feel free to pray for her body to work correctly, heal, and get stronger (God knows who she is).

Today we went to Washington Farms. We have been there several seasons, but this was the first time we did the corn maze. John thought it all looked the same, he kept saying, "We've been this way before."
