This is a very quick update....I promise!
We stayed an extra night at Mt Hermon so we could spend more time with Spencer and other friends. Just like the beginning of our trip, we had dinner together on Sat night, the kids all hung out together playing frisbee on the meadow while I went to the Marty Goetz concert...another amazing performance! We checked out of our room Sun morning, went to church together, went out to lunch with Spencer, came back and visited with friends and then said our goodbyes to Spencer and friends....it was a hard goodbye! We stayed the night with our friends in San Jose and are just kicking back and resting up for our big drive home on Tuesday. The transition into "real life" is always a tricky one and a day of rest will help tremendously....esp for me as the driver!
We have TONS of stories from our time at Mt Hermon and hopefully over the next week or so, we can share them with everyone...like the one about Pearce wrestling an Oregon Duck alum and pinning him......in a packed dining hall!
Oh, just in case anyone was curious, the DVD turned out great. Bart, Ellen and Lauren all watched it last night and Lauren, a 25 year old business woman, said she wants to go next year and join in the fun!!! Great job, Spencer!!!
Well, keeping it brief. More later!
Love,
MBA

Thanks for the update, MaryBeth. Love you and family, MA
Mary Beth,
I hope that your drive back home to Corvallis was as enjoyable as a long drive can be. There is a lot of God's great country to drive through along the way. It was really great to have lunch with you last week, and I have been swamped with work ever since. Have not gotten to my own email and things for several days - just getting caught up.
Went to our small group meeting on Friday, and all appreciated the folder from the Memorial for Bruce. We are continuing to pray for you and your family. Our strength comes from the Lord, not from any of us, as He provides for ALL our needs most abundantly. It is often, though, that we do not see His blessings right away, but they are there anyway - making the path a little brighter and more cheerie. Thanks for keeping up the blog, so we can all keep in touch.
In God's Love, Sandy Wilson
