Spaghetti Dinner Update

Our weathermen were wrong this weekend and the temperature never dipped under freezing - so we were able to have a successful fundraiser with no weather problems.

Spaghetti with Ice Anyone?

This weekend is our Student Ministry's annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser weekend and of course the weather is cooperating wonderfully. The forecast is rain, freezing rain, and snow. Unless we get a nice surprise, I'm sure we'll have pounds of left-over spaghetti if anyone's interested.

Poked and Prodded

We took Harper to the doctor about a week ago because she couldn't kick a small fever she had had for a few days. They diagnosed her with a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). Her doctor wanted to run some tests (kidney and bladder scans) to see if she had any reflux because he said that UTIs at such an early age with a high ecoli count were fairly uncommon. Well, we spent the morning today at the hospital (Harper was a trooper) watching our little girl get poked and prodded in all the wrong places. We won't get the "official" results until her doctor has seen the results, but everyone today said that all her "plumbing" looked good. So the infection is probably due to "normal" little girls stuff (poo getting into her urethra). We are quite relieved at this preliminary news as the alternative are way worse.

Gamma & Papa (from KY)

Carter's, Camden's, and Harper's "Gamma" and "Papa" from Kentucky (Trae's parents) were in town a couple of weeks ago to love on some babies. It was a wonderful visit.

Who's the Messy One?

So ... are the twins messy eaters or are their mommy and daddy messy feeders? It seems, that is the question.

Church Fire

Yesterday afternoon our Youth Building at Church (New Covenant) caught fire. No one was in the building at the time of the fire and the investigators have yet to determine the cause. The initial assessment is that our Youth facility has suffered a total loss, but we will know more in the coming days.

Here is a news story that aired as the building was burning ...
