We bought an above ground pool and set it up at the farm, but it wasn't used much because we are still at the rent house and haven't been to the farm very often. SO, we moved the pool. Drained the water and loaded it onto a trailer and hauled it the 7 miles from the farm to the rent house. Oh, don't mind them, that is just the Warrens moving their swimming pool... People around here are getting used to seeing us and have come to expect us to be somewhat different. They like us in spite of that, I think!
We had an amazing surprise a few weeks ago! Barrett and Devin told us that they are going to have a BABY!!! YES, you heard me correctly! A BABY!!!! Now, you all know by now that I am not easily excited (ha ha), but a BABY is something to get excited about! I think you could hear my shout of joy all the way down the block! (Again, don't worry, it's just the Warrens) Pray for our neighbors! We are not a very quiet family and I am sure they are wondering about all the noise that proceeds from our home! Anyway, back to the baby announcement! We were getting ready to pray for our Sabbath meal on Friday night and Barrett said, "You guys will never guess what we saw at the camper (they live in a camper on the farm) last night!" We were all guessing mice, spiders, frogs, etc. He told us they had a picture of "IT" and handed us their phone/camera. It was not a picture of anything we had suggested, but it was a picture of a pregnancy test and it actually said "pregnant!" (These new tests amaze me, they actually write out the results) Needless to say, we are overjoyed and pray protection and blessings over Barrett and Devin and this new little life!
We also had our annual family reunion at my brother's house. Such fun we had!!! It was hotter than the blazes, but we found if you eat enough and hang out in the pool the heat isn't so bad! It was a great weekend of reliving old memories about loved ones who are not with us anymore, making new memories with family that is here and dreaming about all the memories to be made with future family members! Our family isn't perfect. (I know, it is a shocker) We don't always see eye-to-eye on some issues, but we are FAMILY and that means we love each other no matter what! It was a great time!
I hope that all of you are having a terrific summer and I will talk to you soon!!!
