I love this photo of Jessica & Robert. This was B.E. (before Elizabeth). And this one just made me laugh.

Yes, we are keeping him away from trees :D
We are SO, SO proud of him. He is graduating from Basic Training tomorrow. And it hasn't been a piece of cake for him either. Not too long into Basic he broke his finger. But then he couldn't do the push-up part of his PT, which is needed to pass to graduate. He's been working tremendously hard to pass and HE DID!!!! Woohoo!!! With lots of prayers, we KNEW he would. But then last week, coming back to base from a 7-day "campout" he was bit by a brown recklous spider. YIKES!!! Talk about freaking out a Mom! It was treated in a timely manner and he's on anti-biotics and healing really well. It was just nice to talk with him yesterday without much of a time restriction. I'm sure Jessica is getting in LOTS of talk time too. He heads out first thing Saturday morning to Georgia for further training.
Here are a few other things that just made me happy yesterday!

The clouds at sunset last night

Warm, fresh homemade biscuits

Halloween decorations on my fireplace mantle

Plus Rob is coming home this afternoon from his trip to Calgary. It's another happy day :D

Wow -I'm glad Robert is doing okay after the spider bite. We had a man in our ward got bit by one this summer and spent 8 weeks in the hospital.
I'm glad mommy got some talk time with him, too!
So that is the kind of spider bite that Celina had as well. I couldn't believe the doctor didn't spot that. She finished her antibiotics last Friday and is doing fine. :o)
Glad you got to connect!!
Glad to hear Rob is doing good-I HATE spiders!!!
