Hannah and Emily went with Deanne, Sarah and Chris to take this class. Emily had a WONDERFUL time, she is even hoping that maybe we can set up a wheel class at CRC, she enjoyed it so much. Hannah had fun but found it frustrating!

I know you will be happy to hear that Kenny's baby girl was bron healthy and a whopping nine and a half pounds. :-)

I thank God this baby was saved from abortion, and I know God is so proud that you and Sarah Leland helped protect her little life by supporting her mom when she needed it most.

On a sad note, the twins Chelsea and COurtney's mom died from a drug overdose on Thursday...it is so sad.

love, Kas
