Veronica's Feis Fundraising Finale
Tonight was Veronica's Fundraising finale for getting to her Feis ("fesh"-or competition) in Arizona. She held a class recital for the day camp students. I was very pleased by the attendance for a summer Sunday evening. Our Church family loves their Alaskan summers... the fishing, camping, boating, and company! My daughter's in-laws, Don & Talitha, are visiting from Arkansas and came, as did Fr. John, Uncle Joe, KC, Ute, the Gillquists, John Morrison, Deacon Pat, and many others. Every single one of them blessed us with their attendance. (Thank you!)
Veronica has had help from her sisters and brothers, and has kept me busy helping with making earrings, sewing skirts for the dancers, finding things for the yard sales, and helping her with more than I can account for here. We're both rather exhausted, but glad that it's coming to an end ... at least for now!
Veronica's first day will be spent in Grade Exams, the next two in competition (Feis), and then 4 days of camp. We are praying her feet will hold up as she's been dealing with sesmoiditis in one foot. Last feis it was shin splints. The cost of sports and dance!
We leave early Thursday morning and stay the night for her to be settled and rested for the busy week ahead.
Sadly, I will be attending a funeral in Phoenix on Friday, representing the Marine Families Online group. Please pray for Deja and her family. She was only 4 when she lost her battle with brain cancer. |
