Jamey and Sarah came to spend the night last night. Apparently there is another location on Skyline Blvd with our address and they ended up there first, but they found Alice’s Restaurant which has wifi and were able to look us up by the name of the club. Continue reading
I want to give a shout out to my younger sister, Lauryn, and my 14-year-old nephew, Nate, who just returned home today from a mission trip to Kenya. I hope to get one of them to write a guest blog about their trip. Continue reading
