Dear Mr. Obama

Dear subscribers, readers, friends and family :),

I was planning on posting pictures of all the fun I had this past weekend  down in Peoria at the Reformation fair but....my laptop has a rebellious streak in it, and has decided not to let me get online. :) So I have decided to point you to some other blogs of note that have more obedient computers.

~Churches 10 anniversary camping trip

sadly our camera died about 8 min. after we first got to Erbers house Friday night so we have like no pictures of that fun weekend (so if there are any of you who would like to share some with us that would be great)
But we did enjoy camping out under the Erbers trees (in tents) and making "moments"
