Kristy & Brian's Trip to Wisconsin

Kristy & Brian made it to Wisconsin for their weekend visit to Maranatha. They had quite a time on Thursday night because of bad weather in the Cincinnati area. Their departure from Chattanooga was delayed and that caused them to miss their connecting flight in Cincinnati for Milwaukee that night. When they finally got to Cincinnati they had a difficult time getting a place to sleep, and, of course, their baggage was not available to them for the night. So, when they arrived in Watertown on Friday morning they were glad to go to the Jackson's house for a quick change before going to campus.

The rest of their day on Friday was a whirlwind of meetings, greetings and eatings. It's sounds like it was a very profitable time. They will appreciate your prayers for them in the days to come. There are decisions to be made by both the College and Brian.

On Saturday they were able to spend the whole afternoon with Kirk, Chad and Jen. Through the wonder of the internet they were able to send some pictures for all of us to enjoy below.

While the kids were playing and partying (well, eating), Connie and I were working. Connie has decided to strip the wallpaper in our Master bathroom in preparation for a new paint job. Then she also intends on redoing our bedroom -- in time, but I think that will be sooner than later. During all of this activity, I had the joyous privilege assembling our annual tax information for Corey Pfaffe, our faithful and favorite tax preparer.
