October = colored leaves, pumpkins, cornstalks, apples....

Every month we have a different person put in a unique showcase, which is in the front of our church in our foyer. There are 12 different ladies that enjoy being creative. This month was my month...and here are a few pictures of what I put in!



























This darling little scarecrow was given to me several years ago by Jason and Elizabeth...ususally he is sitting on my front porch, but this year, he's in the showcase!

Packing up and saying Good Bye


How fun it was to spend Monday night and Tuesday with Jason and Elizabeth.... they are just about ready to move to North Carolina on Friday!

















Their pastor and family in Lapeer came over on Monday night - they are sure going to miss Jason and Elizabeth.

Tonight our area is under a "tornado watch"...the clouds have beeen getting thicker and darker, and we are now seeing lightning and hearing thunder....it's moving quickly though our area....I'm so glad that "even the wind and sea obey HIM!"

New Tribes Bible Institute - Jackson, Michigan















This is the president and his wife of the school.


This morning, Bob and I had the privilege of speaking at the New Tribes Bible Institute. There were about 400 students there - and I spoke to the girls, and Bob to the men. Most were freshman/sophomore college kids ... either desiring to go into missions, or just wanting a 2-year Bible education. It is a beautiful campus, and we enjoyed the students so much - eating breakfast and lunch with them!

Our Bed and Breakfast - OPEN!


We had some unexpected company that came on Friday afternoon, and stayed overnight and had breakfast with us....they are missionaries to Haiti - Wallace and Eleanor Turnbull. They are the ones that started the Baptist Haiti Mission, of which Bob is a board member.



Our beautiful trees on the road behind our home...fall colors!

From "old" to "new"

Today we said "good bye" to our great little Malabu, and got our "new" car - a Pontiac Bonneville. It's silver with charcoal grey interior. It's a beauty!

Mike Huckabee for President in 2008???

Rebekah and Brock went to see Mike Huckabee during his campaign in South Carolina. Rebekah made this shirt for Brock to wear.
Mike Huckabee's testimony is wonderful, and his stand on issues are Bible-based. Check him out when you can.
This is picture was taken, and put on his web site!

This is what it said on the site:
Our Sentiments Exactly!September 25th, 2007
The shirt reads ” Good Luckabee Mr. Huckabee”.
Could not have said it better ourselves, glad we had the “Duck” there to capture this on film for us. Thanks!
