~Phillip is home from Colombia, Our friends Leo and Caro are here, my Birthday, ...Happy Thanksgiving!!~

 For those of you who do not have FB, I will catch you up!  

Phillip was able to get a new passport in MI, on November 1st, PRAISE JESUS!!

On Thursday, Nov. 3rd, Phillip and Elijah flew safely to Colombia!  

They were BUSY while there running from City to City preaching, teaching, and being with our Dear people! God gave them a very profitable trip!!

Thank you for your prayers for them!  

God brought them back to us Safely, this past Monday, Nov. 21st!!  

More about their trip to Colombia as soon as I get time to Blog after Thanksgiving!

~LEO AND CARO COME TO VISIT!~

Some weeks back my dear friend Caro from Argentina and I were chatting back and forth on Messenger and she told me that they were going to be in Miami in November!  

(We taught their kids English while we were in Argentina and they were among our Dearest friends in the Chinese Church there!)

I wrote her back and told her that they would be in the USA over Thanksgiving and 

OH, HOW I WISHED that Miami was CLOSER so we could see them!!  

She said that if I was serious, then they would come and see us!  We said, COME ON!!!

They just arrived at the airport tonight, Thanksgiving Eve!  We are happy to have them!

My Sweet Moma and Daddy arrived Tuesday evening to spend Thanksgiving with us as well!  

We miss our other kids... but are happy that Josh and Sarah are with his family in Crooksville 

and Chris and Kimberly are in NC with his family!

~My Birthday~

A few weeks ago, I had a Birthday.  I turned 49!  Wow! Where has time gone? 

But I Love my Life being a Happy Mommy and Wife! :-)

Our coffee maker was having trouble...so one morning a few weeks before my birthday, I wrote this poem and read it to Phillip!

Our Coffee Maker has almost DIED!
So Many a Morning We've Almost CRIED! ;-)

Our coffee Maker is almost DONE...

So I'm praying in a Bunn!!  :-D

There is a website or app called Fast track or 

Bidfta where you bid on things that you want.  

Phillip bid on a Bunn coffee maker for me and for this comfy chair 

(I have not had a comfy chair since I sold mine to go to Colombia in 2004).  

He won the bid on both of them and got them for a great deal!
