August Vacation

This is my Mom and I along the Missouri River in Montana.

Columbus Hospital Great Falls, Montana - Site of my birth.

This is me in front of the hospital - I was born on the 2nd or 3rd floor on the right side. This building is now used for business offices.

This is where I lived for the first few months in the basement. My parents told me we would have to go next door to my grandparents house (the green one) to use the phone. Boy things have changed.

This is the hospital my Dad tried to tell me I was born at, but my Mom just saying are you sure, I don't remember it being so close to the street. We went inside and talked to a very nice young gal who had know idea what she was talking about. So we got back in the car and drove until we found the right one.

I don't remember the last time I went to Great Falls, so this August my folks and I went to visit. The drive was long but with plenty to see. The Missouri river is so blue and in August made you wish you could float the river. On this same vacation we spent sometime with my brother and his wife in Spokane. It was there that my Dad was outside the house looking in the kitchen window and couldn't recognize me. So I guess there have been some changes.

As of today I have lost right around 125 pounds. And in a month it will be a year since I had surgery. Time has flown and I am just thrilled to be where the Lord has me. I have started serving at my church again after taking a little more then a year off. Serving the Lord is something I am so passionate about and am happy to be able to.

I need to get some pictures for October up, but to be honest the pants I'm wearing right now are to big. lol. Have a happy fall, enjoy the beautiful trees.
