Full House!

We have a busy weekend ahead of us! Bryan is arriving this afternoon from Katy, Texas. He is on staff at FBC Katy, which is our sponsor church. He is responsible for making Sterling's business cards, all our advertisement, and the wonderful post cards for the Joe Tanner Event. He is coming up to help Sterling continue to pass them out and help in any other way he can. Sterling is planning on going to Passion with him in January. He will be here through Monday. We are glad he is here. My wonderful friend Mandy, from UBC in Clear Lake, is coming tomorrow and staying through Tuesday! I am so excited for her visit. She worked with Sterling in the student ministry at Clear Lake. She is very special to us! She is coming to help us with whatever needs we have and to just spend time together. (We are hoping to persuade her to move here very soon :)!) Joe Tanner of course arrives on Monday to get ready for the Astronaut event on Tuesday and Wednesday! He is speaking at Madison's school on Wednesday. Her teacher is so excited. And Madison feels very special that Mr. Joe is coming to her class. She hopes Mr. Pat can come someday to her school as well. When Emma got her shot at the doctor this week, I explained to the doctor that Emma did not like bandaids. Emma quickly told the doctor that Mr. Pat had princess bandaids for her at his house! She misses her Mr. Pat! We are also happy to have another Emma visiting us this weekend. We met Emma at the North American Mission Board Interview. She is a student missionary with NAMB in Manhattan. We grew very fond of her in a short time. She is so sweet and has a wonderful heart for the Lord. She is coming on Saturday for dinner and to meet Mandy and Bryan! Busy weekend....Busy week ahead.....lots of opportunities....lots of fun! Keep us all in your prayers!
