A very weighty week!!

We have had a great if busy week.

Ray helped a church out at the weekend with their youth programme at a Church weekend away. It was great catching up with friends and the kids had a great time in the pool. I am sure that Bethany has been diluted!!

The place we were staying tried their best to help out with Caroline's diet, in truth there was not a lot she could eat. But at least there was cheese and porridge!!

Caroline has found eating a lot easier and she has put on a whole 1kg in weight!!! She is developing some kind of appetite!! she even helped me out trying to sus out why a spreadsheet wasn't working!! So all is well.

We have been invited to a garden party at Buckingham Palace!! (not too sure why -but hey!!) Caroline is off to a hat!! The only snag is that the party ends at 6pm and Nathan has his prize giving service at school at 6pm!! So we are planning to leave the palace early (with our heads).

Nathan has got his SATS results in and he came top in his school in every subject (Maths, Literacy and Science) getting level 5's. Caroline is much better than me at remember the specific numbers, but I think he got 95% in Maths, 91% in Literacy and 17 out if 19 in Science. I have not got clue as to where he gets his brains from!! (Nathan is convinced that intelligence is hereditary and skips a generation!).

The children have raised an amazing £105 for Sports Relief. Bethany did the conga for a mile and Nathan did a 3 legged race for 2 miles!!

Points for Prayer
  • Caroline to continue to put in weight.
  • For the Garden Party - that our plans will go well to attend both the party and Nathan's prize giving.
  • Remember Ken (Caroline's uncle) in your prayers. He very recently had a stroke. We are not sure of the prognosis. I am sure you will know what to pray.
  • Ray would appreciate prayer for Church Army. The numbers of potential applicants is low -so please pray that God will call more!!

Cheers Ray

Hey Guys

Hope you are all doing well. I just wanted to say to all of you how lovely it was to see you last week. It has been too long and I know Daniel loved spending time with Nathan as well.

Caroline the weight news is fantastic I am so pleased but we will keep on praying for a good recovery for you. As well as all your other prayer topics.

Enjoy the garden party and remember Ray behave with the Queen or else you could end up in the Tower.

Lots of love to you all and I will be keeping this Blog on my Favourites list so we can keep up to speed with what is happening.

Love and God bless to you all.
