Jody update

These are some more pictures of Jody on Thursday at the hospital and then Friday when we had her home.  She is feeling better but still has lots of pain.  She eats meals with us and she walks around some, so she is improving!  Thank you to all of you.  We have seen the effects of your prayers.




Thursday we walked around the hospital a little with her.

She's had quite a bit of swelling all over.  From the accident it's self. 
 There are 39 stapmles in her back.
 We brought a few of the puppies in to keep Jody company the other day.

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus

Pathfinder Camporee

This is a post that is over due but I needed to post it, because we had so much fun.  In the end of July we went Custard South Dakota for a mid-America Pathfinder camporee.  The mid-America states that came were Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, North and South Dakota, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico.  There were over 1200 kids camping.  The rest I will explain with the pictures.



 On Thursday we went on a "field trip" type thing.  We went to bear country and then Reptile garden.  It was lots of fun!

 Different clubs went different places.  Ours went to the bear country and reptile gardens but Tabby had to help Ann Wham with a different pioneering station.  So we missed her.  :(









 Then on Friday we went to Crazy horse and to Jewel cave.  I think most of us would agree that going to the cave was the most fun!  Jewel cave is the 2nd largest cave in the world!

 There was another club that went with us to crazy horse.




 It was kind of fun cooking on a cook stove.  It wasn't as bad as you would have thought.  :)

 On Sabbath us Jody, Janae, Paul, and I lowered the flag.  It was an honor to do it for the North and South Dakota states.





 Saturday night was our last program.  We went into Mount Rushmore for our last meeting.  It was really cool to have our farewell under the faces.


 Jody and I were honored to be chosen for North and South Dakota to be in the color Guard.  We carried all the states that were represented at the camporee and the Christian and the American flag, to lead the Pathfinders into the amphitheater.
