July 29 - Back From Beyond

This will probably be brief - we're all exhausted this evening - but I wanted to pop a quick post on here to update you. Barbara and I have been in Clay City (IN) this past week for our church conference's family camp. I've gone every year of my life, and since we've been married, Barbara has grown to love going there as well. We had a wonderful time. It was so good to see our many friends. And I could tell it was really good for them to see Barbara. Most, if not everyone, had no idea she would be there. Thanks to a last minute blessing, it worked out for us to go. God blessed us with one of His earthly assistants who gave us a great queen size bed that is perfect for Barbara's needs. I will try to give more details in the days ahead, but for now, I will leave you with a few pictures from the week. For now, I'll just say that Barbara did VERY well despite the fact that we've both come home with colds! This trip to camp was a second goal that we set after Jackie's wedding, so it was a real answer to prayer to be able to go. Here are the pics...
