Praise the Lord!

“It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High, to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night.”
Psalm 92:1-2

Update!

Well, summer flew by way too fast, and now we're back in school! All four of us are taking courses from the local technical college through a P.S.E.O. (Post-Secondary Enrollment Options) program. Katelyn is in her second year of nursing classes, while Eliza and Hannah are starting their first year in the program. I (Amy) am taking young child education courses. We're all enjoying our programs (except the homework parts!), and it is so nice to have some of our college completed and paid for by the state before we even graduate from high school! Plus, our schedules are a bit more flexible than they would be if we were still attending public school.
We're a little behind in the blogging world, but we hope to catch up now that our schedules are a little more predictable than they are during the summer. The first weeks of August were fun and busy for all of us! We played in the lineups at the Beltrami County Fair, the Clearwater County Fair, and the Itasca Family Music Festival. We really enjoyed meeting other bluegrass/gospel groups and hearing a lot of great music! Then we took a short break from performing to focus on our other various activities. We got to spend some time with our grandparents, which is always a blessing! I spent a week counseling at Camp Dellwater, where I saw God work in amazing ways! When I get some pictures from camp, I'll share more. After that, we performed for a home-style church service near Leonard, MN. Very fun! Then school started the next day! Where did the time go?
Last Sunday we had the privilege of performing at a church in International Falls. We met lots of great people, and were very blessed by their fellowship and generosity.
Well, I hope that gives you at least a glimpse of our lives for this past month and a half! The Lord has walked with us every step of the way, and we look forward to seeing what he has in store for us this fall!
