On Saturday we had a church motorcycle ride to Ouabache State Park in Bluffton. I have only heard it pronouced "o-BAHTCH-e" but I have no idea if that is right. :)

We have officially starting packing...7 whole boxes in fact :). I would love to do more, but we have run out of boxes for now :)
We find out on Sunday about the church in Michigan!! We are very excited for the official word!
Stephen got a different motorcycle, and my butt thanks him! (is that too much information? Oh, well...it's my blog so I guess I can write what I want :) :) ) We found a buyer for our old one almost immediately, plus we got an amazing deal on the "new" one. It is a 2003 Kawasaki Vulcan 1600 (1000 cc's bigger than his other one), fuel injected instead of carborated, shaft drive like his old one, and has all the things we wanted on a bike - saddle bags, floar boards, back rest, throttle lock, and more! The bigger bike makes it much easier for him to drive to Indy and Fort Wayne for hospital visits and such. Stephen is super excited, and I am too. I can't wait to be able to cruise with him...it makes for a fantastic date night :)
If you think of it, please pray for Jill from my office, who is pregnant and due August 2. Early in the pregnancy the doctor found problems with her daughter's kidneys, so they thought they would need to induce, but thankfully Kennedy's kidneys stopped getting worse! Well now Jill went into the doctor this past week and her blood pressure was high. They put her on medication but she went in today and it is not helping. She goes for a stress test on Saturday and may need to be admitted and then put on bedrest for a while, but still would have to be induced sooner rather than later. This is her and Miccah's first, so this is obviously hard on them, and it is very dear to my heart since I was on bedrest with both Titus and Damaris, and know how hard it is when you have to leave your baby at the hospital like we had to do with Titus - and then bring him back again, which was almost worse. Hopefully Jill and Kennedy will both be OK!!!
And to end this post, here are some random pictures...I thought these were cute :)

I've also heard it said Wabash, but the way you said is what I've heard more often.
Motorcycle dates sound fun! Congratulations!
Looks like a fun little trip!
Praying for you guys as you determine where you are going from here and for your friend and her baby.
We were thinking about and praying for you guys this morning at church in Tennessee. What is the latest news from the church?
