Fun but short weekend!

John and I made a quick trip to Lansing on Saturday and got to spend a couple of days with Joel, Wendy and Jake. He's five months old now and has such a sweet personality. He's sure growing too! We enjoyed going to church with them this morning and hearing Joel lead the worship band; singing and playing his guitar. He played for all three morning services so he was really exhausted by the time we went to lunch. It is always so great to spend time with them...just wish we were closer and could see them more often. They had a real disaster in their kitchen this week. Two of their cupboards fell off the wall! Almost all of their dishes were destroyed and it also ruined their ceramic-top range! Fortunately...Wendy moved fast enough to avoid serious injury. The contractor had only used two screws in each cupboard...evidently cutting corners. So now they have to have their cupboards replaced, the others reinforced and buy all new dishes! Fortunately most of it is covered by insurance. Here's a photo taken right after the crash.





Jake's growing up!




Beautiful Betsy!
