A weekend full of driving

So here I am at the beginning of my last session of the summer. Only two more grueling weeks left and then I’ll finally have a free summer ahead of me. One thing that kind of upsets me is that I won't be at camp this summer, but that may be a good thing judging by what's going on up there thus far this year. I'm excited to see what happens; hopefully it won't be as disastrous as I think it will be.

This weekend I went to Albany with Corrie to see my grandmother who is not doing too well in the hospital. When we saw her she didn't look too good. The sad part about the trip is that I probably won't see her again. I really don't know how to deal with sympathy either. People say that they're sorry that this has happened and I don’t know how to react. My abrupt, blunt, tactless self says whatever but that's not what I mean. I will be devastated when she passes, not only because she has done so much for me and the family over the years but because she is not saved either. I feel hopeless in this because there is nothing that I've ever been able to say that has gotten through and now she really isn't coherent enough to listen. So if you're reading this pray that the Gospel will be presented effectively before she passes. On the brighter side of things, I got to see Elliott the big fat baby this weekend too. He is such a happy baby. He's always smiling, and is hardly ever cranky. Corrie and I got to spend a lot of time with him so that made the weekend a lot better.

Corrie has been planning a lot lately for the wedding. I'm starting to get really excited about it. I'm starting to see different parts come together like the photography, the order of the ceremony, the reception etc. Only 215 days left and we'll be married... It doesn't get much more exciting then that.

I better start paying attention now. The pictures in this post are of my nephew Elliott... isn’t' he fat and cute and happy. Ok bye.
