A Quickie

Hello, all. This is going to be a quick update, since I have to head out of the apartment soon. But, my friend's grandfather past away yesterday. She seems to be handling it fairly well so far, but please continue to pray for her family and for Christ to be revealed to many of them through this occasion.

My aunt is doing okay. She is having a hard time remembering everything the docs are telling her, and my uncle is evidently in denial and choosing not remember a lot of things (not good), so my cousin is going to all the appointments with her now so she can know what's going on. They are starting chemo this week. She will get chemo for four months and then radiation for 6 weeks. The cancer is slow moving, but this also means harder to treat. She has been diagnosed in Stage 3 (out of four). I'm not sure what that means for a prognosis, but we're praying for the best. Please continue to pray for her and for the rest of my family as we deal with this.

I'm heading off to Royal Family Kids' Camp, a faith based camp for foster children, today. I am SO excited that Joey is going this year, along with a bunch of our friends. We are going to have a great week, and I really hope the kids will too. I am leading music this year, which is a new thing for me. I am super nervous about it, but I'm sure God will work it out!

As far as wedding stuff is concerned, we got Save-the-Dates mailed this past week. And we settled a few other details-such as a pre-marriage pastor. We're taking a planning break to dedicate ourselves to camp this week. Then we're going on vacation with my family, so I don't know how much planning will get done then either. But that's ok. I'm not feeling rushed about anything. Five & a half months to go!! So exciting!

Well, I'm off to finish getting stuff packed & such. I'll blog again next weekend. (We get back Friday). Love ya!
