busy day! We had a wonderful time with Micah's family at Aunt Joy and Uncle John's house in Stevensville. We spent some time in prayer for Micah's grandmother whose cancer has returned. We are waiting to hear what she is going to do--- likely surgery. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the day. (I am going to take Andrea's senior pictures soon-- we tried out a few things here). and we rode around in Aunt Joy's new convertible. pretty cool!

I felt sick today--- I had a long day at LLPP and then I went to the Walk in Clinic in Zeeland to see if I had strep. The good news is I dont, but the bad news is my throat still hurts. I keep drinking lots of tea. Also, I had to wear a bracelet at the clinic- like I was in the hospital.

So, what did I do today? Well, I went to work, I came back home. I went to the Haworth Factory store with my mom and bought a new kitchen table (which was the test construction one) with some blemishes on it for 30 dollars. Micah and I are gonna use some polish and they should clean right up! I also bought 4 chairs (for 12.50 each). and now, I LOVE my new table and chairs. its perfect. Thanks Mom, for going with me, and helping me with this great find! (the picture is the table and the chairs, unfortunately you cannot see the awesome bottom part of this table. its very cool. I will try to get a different picture to show you soon-- or Grandma, you will just have to visit sometime! :) )

Woke up early to go to a Sexual Abuse Prevention Training event from the Children's Advocacy Center. It was very interesting to hear the stories and the ways that we can stop it from happening in our centers and homes. Later, Micah's family came over to have Captain Sundae with us, and visit his Grandma and Grandpa Vanderhill. Finially, the brought over four boxes of things micah left at their home. We went through it and I found many things that I wish he didnt own, and that I am bringing to Ditto on Monday. Pictured are a few of those things.

I had a home visit this afternoon, and then i went to buy a new hair straightener. My old one broke and does not get hot anymore! So, it was time to invest in a new one. My new one is more expensive, its a top brand, but I spend a lot of time working on my hair because it is so thick, and Micah and I decided buy one that will last and work well is better than buying a cheap on and replacing it in a year. Plus, it was 1/2 price! :) so here is to Chi!
