Alison left to go back to Baltimore and I will be here with Mom and Dad this week. Jenyl and Alison have done a fabulous job with Mom's wounds and they are healing nicely. We have had some wonderful adventures since I arrived. Mom wanted to try and go to the 4 pm bible study at the church today and we were able to accomplish that. It was great for her and Dad to be able to fellowship once again with their church family. Bill Hallier was over yesterday and went out to the barn with Dad to help him get some stuff done out there... I think Dad just wanted to have some guy time in the barn and get away from us women for a while! Thanks Bill. Our next adventure will just seem a little crazy unless you are a Steeler fan... you will then understand the undertaking. Upon turning the TV on to catch a little Steeler action we realized there is still too much snow on the dish to get a local signal... this dish being located higher on the roof than the other, I of course decided we must try so began the trek out to the garage to get the ladder, then out to the barn to get the long handled push broom then trek across the back yard to the side of the house and attempt to get high enough to knock of some snow. Did I mention it is now dark outside! Needless to say I am a little vertically challanged even on the ladder so while I managed to knock alot of snow off the roof onto my head I did not get enough off the dish to pull in a picture. Sigh...trek back through the snow and return the ladder and thaw out. I am bugging Scott on the cell phone to get the game highlights. GO Steelers!Sunday, January 18, 2009
Oh What Fellowship, O What Joy Divine....

Hi Heidi,
Thanks for the update. How nice for your mom and dad to get out of the house.
The Steelers felt your love radiating from the ladder. Yay Steelers!
Love,
Kim
Huh....waddayaknow....we saw the game just fine down here....in San Antonio....in January....yeehaa! (get cable)
It is a real answer to prayer to see the progress Marilyn is making. So glad you were able to enjoy some time out of the house.
We also see the work the three daughters are doing (with their "helpers")as a true blessing. Heidi, I wish I had been there to hold the ladder for you! Isn't it great that we have one more Steeler game to watch! Hopefully the weather will improve enough to melt off that snow. Keep up the good work and know that you all continue to be in our prayers.
