 I finished doing some things around the house and then went to Melissa's to help her with Nora so she wouldn't get tired out.  She has her long awaited dr. appt. today.  She also has a sports banquet tonight.  I thought I could do things for her so she could rest and save her energy.  I took Nora outside and we had fun jumping on the trampoline and swinging.  Bruce came home to take Melissa to her appointment and had ice capps in his hand.  I told him he sure was a sweet husband to Melissa.  He surprised me and got one for me too.  He is a sweet son in law too. Bruce and Melissa took her wedding ring in to have a small diamond put back in and also have her mother's ring resized.   I stayed with Nora while Bruce and Melissa went to see her new doctor.  Nora was sleeping so, i made a couple of beds up and folded some laundry.  I was so happy when Melissa got  home and told me her appointment went great and she loved her new doctor.  She got the right medicine she had needed from the beginning.  He was very kind and so was everyone in his office.  She liked him so much she told me I should switch to him.  I am thanking God.  He is setting up therapy to start on Monday.

Baby opossim in the our yard.

I walked almost three miles on the rail trail this morning.  It was such a nice day to walk.  Worked on weeding around the rest of the house so I could put prune down.  Melissa and I went to Chili's for lunch. We each got potato soup and a turkey sandwich with avocado.  It was delicious.  We could only eat half of our sandwich because we got too full.  Picked up the kids from school and took them home.  Jack was really excited about his Presidential Award Metal. I am so happy for him.  

When I got home, I put Preen down around the house.  This baby possum was in the yard and I screamed when I saw it because it startled me.  I took some pictures and also a video.  I was nervous because he went in where I had put the Preen.  He was sreally cute.

We took the kids to play games at the tabernacle field.  The people in charge said they were going to take them to the park.  We packed up to leave while they were gone. Wes and Gayla left, then Vikki got the kids and left.  Hailey rode with her.  We left a half hour after Vikki.We got back from BayShore and got the camper unpacked.  Melissa called and wanted to know if we would like to come over for a cookout.  Of course we said yes.  Bruce had made a great cut up veggie salad, macaroni salad, and cut up fruit.  He had chips and potato salad too. He grilled chicken, burgers and hotdogs on the grill.  Everything was delicious. We had ice cream sandwiches for dessert.  We sure had a great time and it was an absolutely beautiful day.  I love my family!

5/27/18..Ate breakfast, went to church service, swam, Visited with Wes, Gayla, Roger and Judy for a while.

Isaac up in front of church worshipping...Love that boy and how he loves to worship

Ate breakfast and got ready to go to church in the morning.  After church we ate and then had free time.  From 1:30 to 5 they had free time to do all the activities.  Hailey and Mia went canoeing.  Peyton and Isaac said no way so we didn't go.  We swam and then when Mia and Hailey got back, they came in the pool with us.  It was a hot day, but we sure had fun.  At dinner time, it looked like it was going to rain, so we decided to go the the Dairy Barn for dinner.  We all ordered our burgers, nachos, etc and went to the pick up window.  We saw Wes, Gayla, Roger and Judy and went to their table to talk to them.  It started getting very windy and dirt was blowing in our eyes.  We ran to let them know to make our order a to go order.  Wes and Gayla went back to the campground.  Roger and Judy left for home and we waited for our order.  It started pouring out so we were sitting in our truck...Bill, me and Vikki in the front and Peyton, Hailey and Isaac in the back.  Our stuff came and we headed back to the campground.  It was hailing a little on our way.  When we got close to the campground it got sunny out and was very nice again.  We noticed everyone had their awnings up and were a little concerned about ours.  Wes had gone over and put it up for us.  We were so thankful.  He is such a great friend.  Happy he just had to push a button.  We went to the church service at 7 and it was a great message. Then we had a 30 minute break.  Vikki, Peyton, Isaac and I went back for the worship service. Bill, Wes and Gayla stayed at the camper.  The group Freed was playing.  They played a song and then invited adults to come forward if they wanted to.  No one went up.  Isaac went up and was worshipping though.  After that all the kids started going up.  They helped with the rest of worship and their voices sounded amazing.  Isaac led worship for the song, Good Good Father.  He did great.  Hailey sang up there too.  All the kids sang out loud and sounded amazing.  We were all blessed and our hearts were touched.  Thanking the Lord for this awesome experience for the kids and us. Mia and Hailey played tonk and  Mia sang along with our videos of the worship we took.  Mia spent the night in our camper with Hailey.  They slept on the loft. Such a fun night
