Les and I were just back in Nicaragua again. What amazing times we have there… Except Les got a superficial scratch (so we thought) and it turned into nasty cellulitis. What a battle that’s been to handle.
My crazy birthday came along again — those of us with Halloween birthdays are a special species. I can’t help but act up…
And now I will have to settle down again as we get ready to go to Cuba for three pastor conferences. I’ll be taking wedding dresses, sweet little dolls made by Grandma Darlene, some new shirts and ties, some wonderful children’s flannelgraph Bible lessons — and more. Les will teach, alongside one of his colleagues, and another new friend is going to be with us, too. We look forward to this next trip and what God has planned while we are there.
Grandchildren and friends are our great joy — we love every moment we find with these growing up and wonderful young people. Daniel is here at the University of Miami. 
Our youngest Miami grandson keeps us entertained with all his ball games. Right now it’s football — and their team has won 6 of 7 and David’s quarterback skills are making the news. 
So, even though birthdays make us older, life is wonderful and we are so blessed. The Lord has given us way more than we could have ever imagined.
Until next time,
Grandma Carolyn
