Well it's Monday morning, really it's almost noon and Robyn and I are scrambling trying to get the little things done that you want done before going on a long trip. You'd thing that we would have this down to a science but we still struggle a bit. We will head out soon to meet stevie at work and say our good bye's to her. She's doing great with school and we're really proud of her.

The Church had covenant prayer for us last night and with all of the prayers that have gone up for us I can't help but be possitive about the outcome of the surgery but we still covet your prayers not only for us but for our family while we are gone. We will have about 30hrs of travel once we start this evening at 8pm. so it will be a long day for us. Once there we will have a day of rest and then my first appt. with the doctor on Thursday, Friday i'll check in and Saturday morning I'll go in for surgery. That will be Friday about 4:30pm P.S.T. when I go in. If you add 4 hrs to what ever time it is here in calif and then change your am/pm to the opposite of what you have and then add a day that is what time it is over there? :)

that's it for now.
