Hi-de-Ho!Its been awhile since I actually blogged. Marc is doing such a fantastic job so I just let him at it! Love the b-day greeting, are'nt I blessed?! Alot is happening and will be happening in the next few months and I dont know how much time we will have to blog but I want to fill in a few blanks just now.

IWT is snowballing and the teams will be here around the 19th of Oct. ready or not! The stage will be set and we are expecting God to do some awesome things! IN THE MEAN TIME... there are loads of projects to get done. Kilmarnock just came through a time of "Transformation" seminars that were IWT organized and we are already getting some exciting feedback from christians there and some awesome stories of people sharing their faith like never before and personal lives transformed. At one of the nights when Mark Anderson (our International IWT Director and founder) was speaking he challenged the church (19 participating churches btw and whoever else gave ear) to make Jesus Lord COMPLETLY of our lives... to examine what I actually believe ... to lay down EVERYTHING at the cross and make an effect on our generation... to be the witness that God intended and to be thankful for allowing us to participate in His salvation of people for Eternity. From my seat it seemed like an easy 2/3 of the church responded! Amazing night!!!

In other news... MOM IS COMING!!! We are soooo excited that she will Lord willing be here next week and will stay for a few months. We havent had mom time in over a year and look forward to just hanging out with her and not recovering and being sick this time! Hopefully it will be a much needed break for her. THe kids are beside themselves with glee and with a little luck Erin will be saying Grandma by that time. :) I couldnt resist this cute picture of Erin. She just decided to start posing and luckily I could actually find the camera before she got tired of saying cheese.

Here we go... Kayleigh had to research some facts about Scotland and this was her star fact chosen by her teacher. "The highest recorded temp. in Scotland was 32.9 c at Greycook on 9 Aug. 2003. Prior to that the record was 32.8 c (also 89.6 F) at Dumfries on 2 July 1908!" Go figure! It was warm here then too! :) Rainy today but amazingly dry and sunny lately. Its off to research the Isle of Iona now for homework. How cool is that?! More Later... love to all, Julie
