Chicago Fun

We had the opportunity to visit the Temple in Chicago yesterday, it was so awesome. We also meet up with our good friends (neighbors)from Wyoming, the Hadleys! We had a wonderful time. We walked the mile of shopping (stop a couple of places) and then went to it at "Shaws Oyster Resturant"! YUMMY! It was so good.

Cassie' in BAND

Cassie joins up with the Marching Band.......3 weeks ago they asked Cassie to join the band.......she did...The work is very hard both physical and mental. She performed Friday night at the football game. She did a great job! She is so cute........

It has been so long.......

Hi! I am back.....what a crazy summer we have had. We are all doing well. We finished the basement and everything is set up! YES! We have our office, computer, scrapbook area, TV (entertainment), stereo, pool table, ping pong, darts and another game table....I am so happy and excited. Everything looks so wonderful. My husband is the greatest.....he worked so hard on everything.....and it paid off!
Cassie is doing swell....she had a fun summer - She went to EFY in Hiram Ohio and had a very special experience. She passed her driving test! Played on the Goshen College BB league (they won the Manchester Tourney)! She joined Marching band this year! She starts school on the 19th! 11th grade.........WOW!
Elder Johnson is doing wonderful. He loves his mission and has grown so much. His amazing testimony just keeps growing. 4 months and he is home. We are so excited...we can't wait.
Mike and I are doing well. We are enjoying each other, taking walks with the dogs, riding the Harley, sitting on the patio, and playing pool. I am not very good, but I try.

I about forgot, yes we got another dog.....his name is "Willie"! We love him, he is a blast.

My family is the greatest! I am so very blessed to have such a wonderful husband, and two awesome children.........
