Daniel and Cassie brought the kids over for a little photo shoot, just for the fun of it. They came over just as we were finishing up taking pictures of some good friends of ours, the Lazenby family. I'll post a few their pictures a little later (after we finish the touch ups.)

As for me, I am still up near the Seattle area and should be home by the end of this week. My time here has been busy and sweet and I am thankful for it. As for the family, they are waiting on some meetings to take place in order to find out whether or not they will get the house they won the bid on...so continued prayer for them would be appreciated. The dad is doing better each day, the biggest concern being his blood pressure going up too high.

" O LORD, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance. I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; My heart also instructs me in the night seasons. I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved."

Psalm 16:5-8

For the past three weeks I have been up in the Seattle area helping out a lovely family as their husband/dad came home to recover from a stroke. Praise the Lord he is improving daily and each improvement is celebrated with the children, wife and himself rejoicing in the Lord. Their biggest hurdle now is finding just the right home for a family of 7, 1 dog, 1 cat, 2 rats, a piano and a layout that helps, rather than hinders, in the dads recovery. Please keep them in your prayers.

The video is of the 2 youngest children singing one of their many songs. It was a blessing to sit at their dinner table and hear the entire family sing and pray before the meal.

"Let Your mercy, O LORD, be upon us, just as we hope in You."

Psalm 33:22
