Sausage, onions and peppers over rice. Yes, I made it and I ate it! This meal reminds me of our good friend Ed. He used to come over and make it for us, and any homeless person around at the time. I miss Ed.
So, as you see, our baby is cuter by the week. This is of comfort. We have a check up tomorrow.
We're headed for Washington state in a couple weeks. First we have to go to LA, I should say, get to go to LA and hang with the Eshelmans around the time of the ordination. That will be great fun. Brian is flying out as well, so it will be nice to be with him again, and Rev Lanning is to be there as well, last I heard, so it will be nice to see him again too. We get back here on a Monday and then drive out on Saturday, after Shawn gets off work in the AM. We have till Wednesday the 25th to get there so Shawn can get oriented the following two days. This contract is for 6 weeks. We hope (at this point anyway) that we will have an opportunity to extend as it will be possible for my sisters and fam to come down from PG to visit. YAY! Also, it sounds like Shawn has an unbelievable schedule! Mon to Thurs, and then off ALL WEEKEND! This idea makes us giddy. If you can imagine Shawn giddy, ok, I am giddy. There are several cool churches that we would like to visit, namely, the RP in Seattle, the Free Reformed in Seattle, and we'll likely visit Mars Hill Church too, theres a sattelite campus near us. So that will be fun. AND we have friends in WA. The Tarons and Harrs are there. So we look forward to getting together with them, and with Philip and Michael, who will be only an hour drive from us ( I think).
So I found these pics and wanted to post them. The one of our moms was taken at my bridal shower. Mom and Vicki got along like they were, hmm, sisters. The other is of Amanda when she was pregnant with Joshy. Shawn makes me laugh.
I had a good Lord's day, sadly Shawn had to work last night and tonight, so he slept all day. Great sermon http://www.marshillchurch.org/media/trial/temptation-from-sin . Good discussion. I had a friend call me, we had nice chat. I look forward to seeing them in Grand Rapids when we get back.

Hey, thanks for posting. I'm glad its getting better. Good to know where you're going, too. I hope Shawn's schedule IS so cool.
Did you see that LA can possibly be on your route to Washington....it is. I looked. Guess you will have to plan accordingly so you have to visit again....:) I would be giddy about not working weekends. I have not experienced that in my life...ever. Gotta love healthcare. (ps--do you then plan on driving from Washington to GR?!)
That was lyd....btw.
We're looking forward to seeing you too, it'll be fun to be close-ish again.
