August is here!

(Katie fascinated by the Lunar Module of Apollo 11)Hey friends and family! Well, Randy and I just got back from a trip to Washington, DC. Maggie currently lives there so we figured we'd take advantage of the free lodging to go see Maggie and the sights of DC! It was a good time...got to see lots of museums and monuments, etc. It was extremely hot during the day! However, going out at night didn't help either. We were out at 10pm and it was still 98 degrees! Here are some pics of our trip...

More to come soon!

It has been an emotional week. Randy's papa died on Saturday morning, June 23rd. I was there along with his sister and parents ushering him into the kingdom of God. It was precious. Randy was able to be by his papa's side for 3 days prior to his death. He ministered to him and has precious memories that he will think on often. Here are some pictures of the time we had with papa.

Summer time!

Summer has been anything but restful so far! Randy has been busy at the hospital while I have transitioned from teacher to summer camp director! We've been spending more time at Randy's parent's home since his papa was diagnosed with lung cancer. Praise the Lord that he accepted the Lord a few weeks ago--God's mercy is so amazing!

I leave for space camp on Friday afternoon. I am very excited for the experience!

Friday, June 1st.
Today was my last day of official work. I have one week off and then summer camps begin. I am helping out with Bruiser Camp at GPS and will work for 4 weeks during the summer. I am also attending educators space camp in Huntsville, Alabama (really excited about that one...)!
Randy continues his work at the hospital. We are anticipating a summer off next summer...
Check back often!

Officially a blogger??!!

Yeah, I know...I have a masters in instructional technology, but that doesn't mean I know everything about computers and technology (sorry, dad!). Since our families and friends are so spread out (and after I looked at my friend Erin's bog), I decide to create this to stay more updated with each other! So, here it goes. The Barnett Family update!
