A Godly woman~

Do you think Mikayla had fun at art camp today?? Doesn't look like it but she had a blast doing "spray paint." She didn't want a picture, but it was cute how covered in paint she was(especially her feet), it was even in her ears!
We had a visit from the Thiesen men for the Brickyard 400(it's a nascar thing) last weekend and had a great time visiting. Unfortunately we got the sad news the third day they were here that Great Grandma Thiesen Flaming went to be with the Lord on July 26th. It was very hard, but we are confident she is with Jesus and not in pain anymore. She had been sick a lot this year and was blessed to live 89 years and raise a wonderful family. Jeff mostly wrote and read the Eulogy at the memorial service and I will try to post it as it is a wonderful testament to the amazingly Godly woman she was.

So we ventured back to California for the second time in a month to pay tribute to our wonderful Grandma and Great Grandma. It was a busy whirlwind few days, but we are so glad we were able to go and support the Thiesens. Praise God for such a wonderful Grandma and for safety in all our travels.
