May 9th - 22nd

In Our Family the Past TWO Weeks...
* worked daily on getting the dining table built and the kitchen chairs redone! It has been a lot of hard work, but worth it!
* Dad went on a business trip with the owner of Rain For Rent - it went well!
* More unpacking of the house and hanging pictures
* lots of yard work!
* August and Seth have been applying to jobs... we're hoping by this next week, they've got one secured!
* Ben returned to us after being at Grandpa and Grandma Vogt's for 2 weeks

Spiritually Speaking...
I think there are a lot of times in our lives that we don't necessarily "see" or realize how prevalent the hand of the Lord is in our day to day living! While these past two weeks haven't necessarily had heart stopping experiences - we have had several incidences that when I look back on, I can see that we have been watched over! For instance:
* Ben has been wanting to get a new suit (the one he's been using doesn't quite fit him, but he is adamant that he wear a suit each Sunday) so off to the thrift store we went and... found one IDENTICAL to the one he's been wearing but in his correct size! Price: $5 and in perfect condition!
* While at the thrift store found another new-looking 3 piece "Modern Fit" suit in Seth's size and picked it up for just $9!
* While Seth was weed eating the yard, he stepped on a board that had a nail protruding. The nail went through his shoe and IN BETWEEN his toes and he walked away injury free!
* Yes, Ben did tear his AC Ligament but it could have been worse and actually broke his collarbone!
