Visiting Grandma & Grandpa


Playing at Grandma's house (a little ray of sunlight fell on Rocky's mouth; it looks like he's eating a french fry...)

Playing on the little bridge

Getting ready for the 4th of July!

Rocky making funny faces

On Thursdays, we usually visit Grandma and Grandpa (Amy's parents). Gracie loves to play outside; they have a little wooden bridge that she likes to walk on. Praise the Lord, my dad is done with chemo and radiation now, and the tumor has shrunk quite a bit. He also had a clean catscan (the cancer hasn't spread), and if all continues to go well, he will have surgery on July 7th. Please keep him in prayer as this is major surgery (it's supposed to take 8 hours!!!). God has taught us all a lot through this. We have continually been reminded that God is sovereign, and He is trustworthy. He has been (and continues to be) so faithful through all of this. How wonderful it is that God can and does use every circumstance for His glory!
