Today is our getting ready day - ready to head to North Carolina for the CEF International Conference. Our plan is to leave after my HSMA band rehearsel tonight, drive to Kings Mt., NC to see my sister, Deb, and her husband. We will spend the night there (Tuesday), have brunch with my niece and her husband who live in Charlotte, then head to Asheville, NC Wednesday afternoon. We plan to do laundry, pack, plan, and rest before we leave tonight.
At this conference, there will be CEF workers from around the world. We will challenged, refreshed, and encouraged as we listen to the speakers, attend workshops, and fellowship with other CEF workers. It is always a great time.
While we are gone, Philip and Bethany will be at home - as they both have classes to attend at LCC and jobs to go to. Joanna is staying with a friend here in Lansing who is also homeschooled and participates in many of the activities Joanna does.
On our way home from the conference, we will be staying the Bob and Linda Seever, friends from Detroit who moved to Springfield, OH to work with CEF, although they have not been involved in the work for many years. We will arrive home sometime Tuesday, May 6.
