Father's Day
We hope that all of our readers who are Fathers had a fantastic Father’s day!! My [Chauntay] Father’s day and weekend passed by fairly uneventful. Thank God. I enjoy my busy lifestyle, but sometimes it’s just nice to spend time with your family do you know what I mean? My aunt and uncle are missionaries (Showalter’s) and they were in town this weekend, and their son and family. So Friday night was spent on the campgrounds at youth camp (14-15 yr old), which btw did you know they were little pranksters? Well, they are. Anyway, Saturday morning I got to meet my mother, future sister in law, her mom and four wedding coordinators at the church to discuss wedding “stuff” and visit the wedding site, what a joy. Then I got to return to church to attend our Azusa Street play meeting, also a joy :). THEN I got to go to my aunt and uncles house to visit with family for the rest of the night. Father’s day was nice, we had church and then as a family we went to my dad’s favorite Mexican restaurant. I love my family, they really are the best!! All in all a great weekend!
My [Alicia] weekend was spent in St. Louis visiting my dad. My brother, Arlen, and I left after work Friday night and had almost made it to the Mississippi River when Arlen hit a ROUS (rodent of unusual size for the Princess Bride fans). This creature came out of nowhere and gave its life to try to cross the interstate. The impact resulting in the car immediately making an abnormal noise and we pulled over. No flat tires and no visible damage but looked like something may be leaking underneath. We continued driving to my parents and I attempted to read his owner’s manual to determine what might be leaking. I started to smell something weird and then thought there was damage. The smell was the plastic on the owner’s manual. Happily, the ROUS had just torn the mud flap which caused the noise and was easily repaired.
The rest of the weekend was fine seeing friends, eating Imo’s Pizza, and hanging out with my parents.
My dad is still battling cancer and is supposed to start a new chemo treatment today. Please say a prayer for my dad, Rudy Becton. Thanks.
