Joshua and Abby are taking a "Dora, the explorer" break :-).
In October, Nathan and Pam had the opportunity to take a little vacation. Paul and I drove to South Carolina to stay with the children. While we were there, my mother had an accident. On October 6th, she fell and broke her hip and leg in three places and had to have emergency surgery that night. We were so thankful that Kirsten stayed with her during that process. Melinda flew in the next day and Christine came from the lake and they along with Kirsten helped Mom during her difficult days in the hospital. When we returned, Mom was sent to another hospital for two weeks of rehab. She is home now and is still having a difficult time recovering. We are praying for her to regain some of the strength she had before her fall.

Halloween 2007
This Halloween the place where my mother lives had a special luncheon. The dining room was decorated in Fall colors with pumpkins, fall leaves and a few ghosts and goblins. The residents were encouraged to come in costume. I decided this was an event that needed to be shared so Kirsten and her children and I picked up my mother-in-law, Catherine and drove to Dallas. The children wore the costumes they were going to wear that night at a party at our church. Emily was "little Red Riding Hood", Alex was an FBI agent, Cassidy was an angel and Zachary was a knight.
