Summer Vacation

Every year we take our summer vacation at Ocean City, Md. We always have lots of fun being together as a family. With me having ALS, it makes things a little bit harder for me but with some adjustments we get by. I love spending time with family and the closeness I feel when we are all together. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful and caring family surrounding me. They are there for me when I am having a hard time and their love and support really does make a difference.

I had a good time even though I couldn't go out on the beach. I listened to music and took cat naps while the others were out playing on the beach and getting sand over everything. Now be are back to our normal routines whatever that may be. God is good!

4th of July Week-end

Saturday evening we went to Chad's apartment for a cookout and had an enjoyable time with Chad and Noelle, Clint and Tanya, Mom and Dad, Noelle's parents Hans and Debbie, and Emy and myself. The food was good thanks to master chef, Chad and all the trimmings provided by the women.

We are grateful for the freedoms we share in this country. They should never be taken for granted and the sacrifices that were made by those who fought for those freedoms.

I thank God every day for the sacrifice Jesus made for my sin. May we never forget the debt that was paid so that we can be free.

Happy Independents Day!
