Monday Mupdate - well, it rhymes :-)

Yesterday, Dot and her mission's group did a car wash and earned over $600 for the house they will be building in Mexico. They had a great time, and even had a motorcycle show up. :-)
Darling said, "Love you," to Dad for the first time. So sweet!!
Dime and Drum are still hanging in there at Encampment. I am looking so forward to seeing them again, and hearing how their time went. Please pray for them if the Lord brings them to mind. Encampment is like a boot camp that lasts 9 days vs. 6-12 weeks. It is very hard, and a challenge for the teens there. They have them up and out doing PT by 6 am. They have classes with tests, PT, and inspections throughout the day. We cannot talk with them, but can e-mail, which they get every night.
This week Deer has art lessons with my brother up north. It will be fun to see the cousins.
Yesterday, we got the dryer working again. Saturday morning the lint fell down the shute when Dunk went to empty it. Papa W and I took the dryer apart and got the lint out, made sure it was working again, and then closed it up. It did work, but there was now no heat. I couldn' t figure it out then, Papa was working on the broken lawn mower, so waited til Sunday. On Sunday I took the back off the dryer again, and had Dunk look at it. After checking fuses he mentions - Is the gas on? Oh brother!! I remembered Papa and I turning it off while we worked, in case we kinked the gas tubing. It works great now!! :-) I had alot of laundry to catch up!
Dunk and Dot had a fantastic Saturday at the Rebelution conference. I'm still waiting for a full report on Dot's blog. :-)

Well, we shoulda helped each other out! I had a working dryer, but still have no working washer, lol. I am hoping to get Donnie to fix it tonight, we know that there is probably a sock in the pump, according to our repair man.
