We have recently begun our "Last Things" before departing for Helene - a short but sweet visit with our oldest son Dan, his beautiful wife Denise, our Grandson Kyle and Grandaughter Kendall in Ohio. This was the last time we will see them until we return from our internship on Helene. :-(
Kyle starts Kindergarten this week, so he and grandma played school - he was the teacher, of course. He was also wrapped up in the Olympic Spirit and performed his own rendition of several olympic events - including hurdle racing, spring board diving and a new event you may not realize was olympic - the "Slip-N-Slide" championship - where he won a Gold Medal!!!

Here Kyle is reaching for the Slip-N-Slide Olympic world record - marked by a sand castle form.

Earlier, in the picture above, Kendall was on the water pistol range setting new records for water consumed while competing!!!
After a long day on the field of competiton, the athletes and judges gathered for interviews and pictures with the Press Corps.
Another highlight from this weekend in Ohio was a re-connection with some dear friends from our college years - yes ...... some are still alive & well!!!! We had not seen them for over 20 years. It was exciting to learn how God has blessed them with both physical and relationship miracles. God is faithful and has restored so many of us, our friends and families through His never-ending Grace and Love! Hopefully you will be reading some of Ben and Sherry's postings in the near future. Hopefully, they will not share everything they know about Henry!!!!
Three weeks from today we will be on Helene. Until then, our "Last Things Before Departing" list will continue to grow.
What are you looking forward to with great anticipation and excitement in your life????

Henry & Terry
