September started out with a Friday evening Game Night. There were two girls from church, and five friends from GBS, our girls and Janet. Rowen took the pictures. We had lively games of Dutch Blitz and Apples to Apples. So much fun!!!
September 3, Rick and Mary Tallman, and Mary's mother Sister Smith came for dinner. Our adopted girls, Lily and Danette were with us too.
Labor Day, we went up to West Carollton, Ohio to visit Ron and Becky Profitt. Becky had extensive back surgery the end of July.
Thankfully, since then Becky has improved so much and is back on her feet and more active.
We had a picnic on the deck at suppertime. Lily spent some extra time with us over Labor Day weekend.
September 9, our dear pastor's wife, Regina, had a birthday and we Albertson girls took her out to eat at Cracker Barrel. So much fun!

On September 10, Lily's family visited from Indiana and we got to have them for Sunday dinner.
Talent Night at GBS on September 15. Elizabeth and Emily dressed alike.
They sang a beautiful song: As Long as You are Glorified. Emily played the introduction, then plucked and sang with Elizabeth.
On September 17, Dr. Phil, Marianne, Alan, Daniel, and Stephen Brown were our guests, along with Lily and Danette. We have tried to have the Browns over for months and finally got to!

Later in the afternoon, our friends from Colorado, Russ and Bonnie Heppner and Natalie stopped by for a too-short visit!
It was so good to see them again, even if briefly, and Emily loved seeing her dear friend.
On a Thursday evening, our Care-n-Connect Friends for August-October, the Manns family were over for supper. Dear, dear people whom we love so much!

Elizabeth and other girls in the missions group at GBS were invited to the Intercollegiate Ministerial Fellowship in Alabama. It was an inspiring and helpful conference and she enjoyed it immensely.
