Made pancakes for breakfast.  Isaac had requested them yesterday.  The kids went to Impact and Vikki and I went to Brian Pruitt’s morning class. It is so good!  Bill is home cutting the grass and taking Max to an appointment, then coming back.   We had our cookie and coffee break under the tent, then went in to the Tabernacle for our next class taught by Jayson Comb.  We had to get in a group afterward so we joined a lady whose name was Marsha.  She was so nice.  We prayed for our churches together, then shared what we had been asked to.  Then we just talked and got to know each other.

We came back and had lunch, relaxed in our hammocks, went swimming, showered and then went to the store.  We listened to the boys talk about the ping pong tournament excitedly.  Visited a while with Joel and Vikki got to see Wes and Gayla’s new motorhome.  Prayed over Ronnie for his back and legs to be healed .  Came back to our camper and had dinner and went to the evening service.  Bill came shortly after it started.  Had ice cream after and then Wes and Gayla came over to play 3-13.  Bill was the winner.

Wished my sister, Brenda, a happy birthday.  Ate breakfast and went to class.  Brian Pruitt from Saginaw was teaching.  His twins go to school with Peyton and Isaac, our twins.  He was happy to see all of us and gave us big hugs.  He is a great motivational speaker with much wisdom from the Lord.  We had our cookie break after class, then went to our next class on Jonah.  

At noon we all ate, then it was quiet time in the campground at our campers.  At 2, Vikki took the kids swimming.  I visited with Becky for a while, then went to the store in town.  Bill took Melissa home to stay with Max so he could do some schoolwork.  And be home for his appointment the next day.  He was planning on cutting the grass Tuesday too, and taking max to his appointment.  He drove their van, then will drive Bruce’s SUV back.

We went to the evening service which was really good, then came back and put worship music on and worshiped, then watched another movie in the series.  Called my Jacob to make sure all is going well.  He is doing amazing.  I knew he would.  I still like checking on him though.

 

Sunday, 7/30/23, Did a motorcycle church visit with CMA chapters, fun day at family camp, good meSage from the pastor of River Church at the evening service

Great church service and awesome worship.  Lots of old and new friends there.  Heard an amazing testimony about God’s miracle power.

 Fun day at BayShore.  Couple of pop up rain storms.  Cooler and in the 70’s .  Melissa and Max came up today. Max wants to camp with Vader in the tent by their camper.  Vikki and Peyton went on the bus to the beach. The BayShore bus was broke down, so they went on a nice tour bus.  They had fun!  Jack, Evan and Isaac hung out together. They ate hotdogs with us because Bruce, Melissa and Max didn’t get here til after we got back.  The kids are all having fun hanging out together!  

At night we watched a movie from the Love Comes Softly Series.  Called Jacob and talked for a while.  Always happy to hear his voice and know he’s doing good!  I missed going to his concert tonight.  Will be going next Sunday again the Lord willing.

We packed last minute stuff and left at 10:15 for BayShore.  We stopped for muffins at Tim Hortons.
We got to BayShore and it had rained lots.  Our truck and camper got stuck.  Some guys were really nice and helped get the truck unstuck. We got things set up and then walked around. It’s always good to be at family camp.  It’s our 18th year!  
Evan and Jack came over when they got here and ate lunch. Hailey came after they left and she had lunch. They all came for dinner.  Then we all went to church.  The kids all went to Impact.  It rained really hard when we were in the service. Bill ran back and closed up the camper, brought me a sweatshirt and umbrella. Hailey had to leave after church to go home. She is going back to Spring Hill in the morning to work.  The service was really good.  It stopped raining just in time for us to walk back and not get wet.We went with Wes and Gayla and had ice cream afterwards in the dining hall with friends.
