Games Re-do


Keilah played with her Warriors in a volleyball game in Council Bluffs late yesterday afternoon at 5:30. We drove to Council Bluffs for the game and arrived in time for the beginning. The small crowd lined the edges of the floor in this small gymnasium and loudly supported their teams. The Warriors proved not to be up to the challenge but did their best. The two game event was quickly over.
Gas expenses - $4.00
Admission - $6.00
Watching Keilah play - priceless

So while we have been here in Omaha, we have attended five athletic events and another that was canceled due to wet fields after we arrived. We got to see the twins play in two games, Susannah in two, and Keilah in one. James plays baseball and basketball, and this is not the season for either of his sports. How our kids manage their busy lives to get these events in and everything else that they do is mind-boggling to us, and we admire their abilities to be so organized. The grands benefit from the many activities, and we benefit from being able to see them grow in their abilities and sportsmanship among other qualities.

It has been fun to be here, but we leave tomorrow for a two night stay in Denver to visit with good friend Terry and then on for a stay in Albuquerque before returning for the winter in Texas. Happy travels.

May the Lord keep you safe as you travel on and leave us once again.

When will you be back? Thanksgiving, maybe Christmas??
