Mike's coming! I am so glad; I miss my baby boy (now the father of three!). He's doing the raw experiment for 30 days, and so far, so good. I'm gonna make him some fun, yummy food while he's here. And I've lost 11 lbs. in 25 days--not too shabby! I'm pleased, and I'm enjoying myself.
Baby Grace and her family were here last weekend for Christy's shower, which was a lot of fun (both their visit and the shower). (And THAT was a poorly-constructed sentence!) Little Luke has lost more teeth than Ian, who's a year older. Interesting. I love the toothless look (just on kids and hockey players) (are you out there, CC, almost CH?).
Gotta get to sewing! I have five dresses to make for the wedding, scheduled for August 2nd. Greg's gonna marry them (doesn't THAT sound weird!), and he's getting things ready for that. She'll get married where Sarah did, which is fun. And yours truly is the photographer. Yikes!
Hopefully we will see Paul again this weekend. And Leilani (correct spelling) was a joy. Beautiful girl. We made some fun food together.
And our pastor is blessing me like crazy preaching on my favorite account in the Bible--the Canaanite woman with the possessed daughter (Matthew 15:21-28). This week will be Message #3. You can hear these on http://sermonaudio.com/aashepard and they will be under "Crumbs Undeserved" and "Intercessory Prayer for the Lost." I am a learning woman. And I continue to pray for my babies, and my baby grands, and all those related thereto. God is good!
Well, now that I've left you with the most interesting post ever, I'll sign off. My Faithful Four (and you know who you are)--please leave the required comment. Love to all!

oh enjoy my husband and send him my love, so happy yall get to spend time with him and ofcourse that he gets to spend time with you all!
mom, i really wish you would come up here for a week and make the dresses with me. (speaking of the dresses, i need to measure the girls but abby is asleep right now. remind me later, please.) thanks for being so hospitable to the kids and i. we love visiting you guys.
Have I (we) mentioned how much I (we) love and appreciate you? Well, I (we) do!!! Thank you for all you are doing and have done. All for the cause!!!!
And yes, I too am quite fond of the toothless look. When done correctly, it can be most appealing. You know, I took a hockey puck to the face vs I ate some hard peanut brittle. You guess which one is more cool.
Love you!!!!!!!
