Just a quick note to ask for everyone to pray for Aaron's mom. She walked out the door of Amber's (Aaron's sister's) house last night into the cold with her little dog Ziggy. She refused to take her cell phone with her. She was gone all night and no one has seen her today. Amber was going to go report her missing to the police so if they see her they can pick her up and take her somewhere warm. Aaron's mom is bipolar and she left Amber's house because she got mad at her because Amber didn't have money to buy her cigarettes. This is obviously really stressful for the whole family but there is not much anyone can do at this point. Reporting it to the police is about all anyone knows to do. Several family members have gone out looking for her around the neighborhood and Aaron's aunt called the homeless shelters but they would not give her any information although they did say no dogs are allowed so it is very likely that Aaron's mom did not stay there last night. Just pray that his mom will find some safe warm places to spend the night and that someone will find her soon. She said she was having bleeding when she went to the bathroom before she left. We don't know for sure if this is true but if it is, it is even more concerning that she is out wondering around when she probably needs to be in the hospital. I'll keep everyone updated if I find out anything else. Thanks for your prayers.
Back in April, we decided we needed to do a short family getaway after the semester was over.

We found Beavers Bend State Park close to Broken Bow, OK and decided to go there. We booked a cabin in the state park and eagerly awaited the day we could take off for our getaway. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed through Tuesday afternoon. It was short, but so fun and relaxing. We had no computer and no cell phones while we were up there. We just got to enjoy being around each other and the beautiful scenery. We built a fire and roasted some marshmallows. Also popped some jiffy pop. Aaron had never done one of those before. This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building t...
