Sunday, 9/6/26, Happy 15th Birthday Peyton and Isaac! We love you!

Happy Birthday Peyton and Isaac!  We love you and we are missing you!  Thinking about you and praying you have a great birthday celebration

Melissa told Hailey that Vikki was sick and couldn’t make a cake, so Hailey made a cake from scratch for the twins.  So sweet of her!

YUM!!!

Bill got a little bit of rest in which he needed.

God used Bill to touch a lot of hearts.  He is so good at welcoming people, leading the services, and is so kind to everyone.  I am very proud of him.

Jay gave a great message tonight.  He is a wonderful evangelist.

Bev and I making the announcement of how much was made from the bake sale for Run for the Son

The kids sang a couple of songs and did the motions.  They did a great job.  Wendy and Sean did a great job teaching them.

Fun doing the bike and golf cart games earlier in the day

Guys lined up to do bike games

Somehow on the blindfold game where the driver is blindfolded and the person behind directs her, they ended up under the water balloon game.  They were supposed to stay on the other side of the line on the left.  We all had a good laugh

Bill had lots of fun taking kids out to play the games.  It was so nice to see kids so involved.

I guess he’s learned to love that donkey hat lol.

Riley and her mom doing one of the games

Bill’s license plate was upside down so he changed it in between bike games

I guess he’s learned to love that donkey hat lol.

Jack asked Kaylin to homecoming and she said yes!  He was so happy and so was she!

We sure missed being home to see Peyton and Isaac on their birthdays.  We couldn’t have gone inside the house because of Vikki anyway, so looking very forward to when we get home and can see them.  Vikki thinks she has the same thing Kimmy had.  None of us want to catch that.  

We went to Bible Study at 7:20.  Then I met Bill in the dining hall again for breakfast.  We sat with Jay and Jane.  Jay gave a really good message at the service in the morning.  In the afternoon we joined in on and watched the bike games.  It was a beautiful day and lots of people participated and lots watched.  Bill and I had fun doing the road kill game.  We came in second.  I got the tiger which was the only animal worth 5 points so that helped us.  Everyone had a fun time and we had lots of laughs.  We did lots of cheering too.

The evening service was good.  Joe shared about our CMA booth and what happened in Akron and Gary shared a testimony of how God helped him smuggle Bibles into a closed country.  Then Jay shared a really good message.  We went and had free ice cream after that.  

Lots of people went and the dining hall was full.  It was fun visiting friends and enjoying the yummy ice cream.  They gave really big portions.  Bay Shore ended up donating half the money that was collected on the first two nights to Run for the Son.  They are always so good to us.  

I worked on my blogs some.  I’m behind so trying not to get too far behind.

Bill and I played a game of 3-13 and dice.  He beat me in 3-13 and I beat him in dice.  We had fun.
