Good time with Mom Emery

We had a good time with Mom Emery here last week. She came up to see Sue in the Sound of Music, and had a good time with the kids and me while Sue did her thing with the play. We celebrated Mom's 76th birthday while she was here, baking a cake and taking her out to Up the Creek in McDonough. Hope things are going well in your part of the world. Drop us a line or call when you can!

Sue's sister is divorcing her husband

We have sad news: Sue's sister Nancy has chosen to divorce her husband of 29 years. We ask that you pray for the situation as they go through the painful process of severing their life together. Sue and I are saddened by the situation, and we will weather this as a family.

Happy Easter!

Well, we are celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ this weekend, and wish everyone a Happy Easter! Sue and the kids put on an Easter Egg Hunt at our house for the kids in our neighborhood, and I took the kids to our church's Easter Egg Hunt today while Sue went to a funeral. We're going to color eggs tonight and have a good time at worship tomorrow! Hopefully everything will go well - I put together a video clip for the service, so it'll be interesting to see how it is received. Hope this Easter finds you doing well and enjoying life!

Life is busy but good

We're doing pretty well here in Georgia. Sue is busy with play practice two or three nights a week, Jacob and Megan are keeping us running around with their activities, and work is keeping me busy all day every day. But we're doing good. Hope you are too!

Blazing along

Well, we are blazing along here in Georgia. Sue is in full swing with play practices for two plays (interpreting one, acting in another!), which means I'm taking care of the kids more than usual, which is a fun change. The kids are doing well, nobody is sick right now, and we're all having a pretty good time in our day-to-day activities. Life is good! Hope things are going your way, too!

Ice in McDonough

Whew! The ice storm this weekend was a pain, but we handled it OK. Sue's sister Nancy and Sue's mother had to endure the pain of ice, snow, and no power with us, but it was fun time. We don't often get to stop and play games by candlelight with Nancy and Mom Emery, so it was a rare treat! :-) I'm glad they were able to come and surprise Sue for her birthday -- they made the whole event that much more special!

Now the power's back on (praise the Lord! it was off for about 24 hours), so we should be OK. The kids are grumbling because school will probably be happening as normal (boo!), but that's a good thing -- they need to learn as much as they can. I hope the weather isn't messing you up in whatever you may be doing!

Back to normal

Now that the holidays are over we have gotten back to normal here. Sue is busily going here and there with the kids, the kids are busily doing homework, practicing piano, going to gymnastics and basketball, and I'm busily working. Ah, it's good to be back to normal!

We will be celebrating Sue's birthday later on this month - call or email her if you get the chance. Hope everything is going good in your part of the planet!
