Friday AM

We are still thankful...no problems in country at this point.  Although we have heard from many different sources that they will erupt. It's nice when so many are wrong in this way.  We are still praying that nothing happens. 

Vero and Shannon made it home safely last night.  They sat at the airport in Port ALL day, waiting to get on a plane to come home.  We had our thanksgiving dinner once they got here.  Abbie was so wound up about the "Thanksgiving feast" that it was hard to keep her down.  All I kept thinking about was "This will be so much worse when Christmas comes".  She had Don and I up at the crack of dawn to have the feast.  At school they had talked about the pilgrims and the feast they had with the Indians. 

Again I ask you to keep Barb and her boys in your prayers.  I guess it's more than just them, it's the spouses and grandkids, too.  Our hearts are still heavy for them.

Today, while Abbie is at school, we hope to get the Christmas decorations up.  Don't know if it will happen, but we are going to try anyway.

As this election draws near things are getting wilder and wilder here.  We even have the candidates calling on cell phones telling you to vote for them.  Before it was text messages, not it's recorded messages.  So, the states have nothing on us with that now.  Had a plane flying over dropping photos and "vote for me" messages the other day.  Had to clean our yard out with those things. So we'll be really happy when this whole mess is over.

We are living evidence of how God works daily in people's lives.  It seems there is something big each and every day where His presence is made visible.  And that makes it so awesome to work for Him and have His guidance and care obvious.  I hope you are in that same place with the Lord, where you can see and feel Him working with and through you on a daily basis.  God bless and keep smiling.
