Tomorrow I head northeasterly to Cedar Rapids, IA with 16 teenagers and 5 other adults to help those who were effected by the ginormous floods of summer 2008. I just found out last night that we'll be working on two homes - one needs exterior painting and the other needs drywall hung. I've never hung drywall, so I'm hoping that I'll get a chance to put the paint brush down and give the big sheets a try.
On another note, today is the last day of the ugly backyard contest...finally! We're really not sure what will happen even though we lead by almost 200 votes. Evidently there are other "factors" they take into account. I would guess we'll learn more the beginning of next week.
Elsewhere, Melissa and Owen are doing pretty well. Owen continues to grow and learn new things. He's walking all over the place and loves to annoy Denver. Usually if Denver is lying by the couch, Owen will step on him so that he can get on the couch. Clever young lad wouldn't you say? Melissa is continuing to be a great mom and wife. She's a busy bee and does all she can to keep up the with little guy.
That's all for now. If I get internet connection in Iowa, I'll be sure to post. Have a great week!
One last thing, please pray for my parents as they prepare for the move at the end of the month. It's an emotional time. I'll post more about Leoti in the future.
