It was fun going to the high school football game tonight. The boys, Mom Emery, and I all piled in the van to go see the first game where the band put on their halftime show. The show was great! The kids have a big sound with 120 in the band, and they played and marched very well. The game was fun, too - we left when our team was up 30-0 - woohoo!
Today is my mother's birthday! We hope you have a great day relaxing and celebrating, Mom!
We drove out to Arkansas to go to Sue's sister' memorial service over this weekend. It was very nice - both of Sue's brothers came, and we took Sue's mom with us. It was amazing to have almost all of Sue's family together, and the service went well. Sue's cousin Dawn officiated, Sue signed a song, Megan sang a song, and Sue's brothers and sister-in-law read different things. The whole sevice was very nice. Afterwards the family went out to dinner, then went to Sey's house to have dessert and hang out. For being a sad occassion it was nice to gather as a family.
We received word today that Sue's sister Nancy killed herself today down in Costa Rica. We are getting more details every hour and are all saddened by this. Please for strength as our family weathers the waves this event will cause.
