This is beautiful Julie. I’m actually a bit envious, having ended up in mid Tulsa for our unexpected move, so visualizing your country surroundings sounds lovely! When we visited beautiful Louisville one fall, the history was fascinating and the old church I visited with Tom & Robin Scott (former FamilyLife) was wonderful. What an incredible testimony of God’s mercy, grace, and protection on John Isaac. (How can he be in college.) Hal will be doing the Scottsdale WTR in June, if he’s around and needs a dinner, or? Embrace your forties. I only wish I’d known how young that was, and I’d enjoyed them more. Every day is a gift and, we’re as young as we’ll be on this earth each new day He grants. Take care, and if you ever get this way, we’ll leave the light on.
Julie, you are amazing. Thank you for sharing real life with everyone and helping others to feel good in the place they are in (moment). You have a way of letting others know you can live through a lot and still be OK. Best wishes for surviving the upcoming kitchen remodel which I am sure will be a thing of beauty and efficiency.
As a new “friend”, I felt a little like a peeping Tom reading all this “newsy” stuff. But I persevered and am so glad I did since I now have the opportunity to comment. Julie, I feel incredibly blessed for the opportunity to serve alongside you at Valley View. With all your positive attributes, I can’t see anything but good things ahead for your family and our Valley View family. BE AT HOME!

Always fun to hear from you, Michele. Thank you for the well wishes. Looking forward to spending time with Lauren & fam in a few days!
Love this so much! Glad to have met you through Valley View! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year!
