Headline news:
WEST SALEM, Ill — "A 5.2-magnitude earthquake centered in southern Illinois rattled homes and skyscrapers across the Midwest early Friday, causing little damage but surprising residents unaccustomed to such a powerful temblor."
Supposedly, many felt it here in Iowa too. Thankfully, I was sleeping at 4:30 AM.
On to less exciting news. It has been a very busy April so far. The month started with John's 30th birthday. The following weekend we went to a Family Life Marriage Conference in Des Moines. Excellent!!! If you have never gone, GO. Our Chapel sends six couples every year. It's such a great investment. This also happened to be our first weekend adventure without Edward. He stayed with his Grandma and Grandpa Rinehart...didn't even miss us.
This last week:
We've had a bunch of little friends over to play.
Attended a Laura Ingles Wilder play at the University of Iowa State.
Planned to go to Little Rock for the weekend, canceled the trip until next week.
Got a great surprise call yesterday saying that Sarah, Keith, and cousin Greta are coming for the weekend, YEAH!!!
Took Edward to the Dr. today because he's got a bad cold, cough, fever and he's been exposed to Strep, Scarlet Fever, Fifths disease...etc. Thankfully, the Dr. said that it's not bacterial at this point. We are praying that he doesn't get little Greta sick.
