Extraordinary Women's Conference

Oh, what a fabulous time we had last Friday and Saturday! Super speakers: Julie Clinton, Angela Thomas, Karen Kingsbury, Thelma Wells, Stormie Omartian and the super funny and serious Chonda Pierce. Music by NewSong and Matthew West. Who could ask for more???!!! Even the rain couldn't defeat us!

As usual, on Sunday we attended Sunday School and Worship, then headed to Priceville to visit with Aunt Fannie. Cindy Scherer had asked us to pass along the gifts and pictures she had brought to town for her. Fannie loved the pictures but was very sad when see how Uncle Clyde had aged and then reading his obit. She said it was hard to realize that she had lost all 3 brothers now!

Weather has turned cool but SUNNY!!! We will enjoy it while we can, knowing that rain is predicted again for the weekend. Barron planted quite a few iris bulbs yesterday that Wanda shared from her garden. Now the front yard in lined with iris beds, plus a few more near the creek. Did I remember to tell you that he also planted two dogwood trees that he bought over the weekend? My sister Cathy also shared some Rose of Sharon bushes with us (some know them as Altheas). Maybe we can charge admission next Spring when everything comes into bloom??!!

Not too many more days until BFC trip to Dunlap, TN ... Hope to see you there!

Sounds like a great conference! Matthew West will be at the MOPS Convention this year and I'm excited to hear him.
