Monday was a FUN few minutes as Wayne accepted the 'ice bucket challenge' for ALS! He was nominated by David Allgaier. This is to bring awareness to the ALS disease and to raise money. He was a good sport.....but the cold water felt good on a HOT Georgia August day!
Tuesday found me back in Dr. Cribbs office for another shot in my eye! I kind of look forward to these shots because I feel they are helping to stabilize my vision from getting really bad!! At least I hope so.
From Dr. Cribbs office we headed to a Zone Conference in Roswell with the Georgia Atlanta North Mission. It was a very FULL afternoon seeing about 16 missionaries! We didn't finish until about 5 p.m. and then had a 2 hour drive back to Peachtree City!
As missionaries we always SING a song to those who have prepared our lunch for us! We LOVE to do that. It is typically "Called To Serve" but on occasion it could be another church hymn.
On Wednesday we had another Zone Conference in the Sugar Hill area for the Georgia Atlanta North Mission. It was a great conference and a great day. The lunches that are served are always sooooo good. Today a Sister made Elder and Sister Sugar Cookies!!! How adorable they were....and soooo good! Wayne was again very busy. After the conference we drove to the South Carolina Columbia Mission.
And there you have it.....SOUTH CAROLINA!
OH MY HEAVENS!!! We never excepted to see Elder and Sister Winward here in the mission field. We knew them when they served twice in the Washington D.C. Temple as Temple Missionaries. How good to see them here.
We were in the Simpsonville and Spartanburg, S.C. area for 2 different Zone Conferences on Thursday and Friday. When we finished on Friday we drove to Anderson, S.C. where we spent the night. We were treated royally by Patrick Kay's parents, Steve and Lynn, who owe a very, very nice Boutique Inn in the heart of Anderson called the Bleckley Inn. What a great treat for us!!
And here we are with Steve and Lynn. I will be making Lynn an afghan! She was excited about that. They really were wonderful and so warm and friendly with us!
And just like that we are back in GEORGIA again!!
On this trip we crossed the 100,000 mile mark on our 2011 Honda CR-V!!! We are surely putting on the miles!
We got home Saturday afternoon in time to attend a ward baptism......2 people being baptized. It was a very nice service. When we came outside the chapel we were treated to a very special sunset!!! It was gorgeous!
I was able to finish an afghan for ERIN TRIMBLE! Hopefully she will like it. It has been a fun one to make with such bright colors.
And this concludes another week and almost another month. I don't know how the weeks go by so quickly! Just amazing.......
