This will be a completely new experience. I'm sure it was hard to leave the people of Campur, but reflect on all that God accomplished through you all! I'm sure you made God look good, which is the main goal.<BR/> Trent, Mari has a tournament tomorrow in Northfield and then we are off to Wisconsin to bring her to camp. Dad and I will stay there for a few days and then come home. Wednesday I'm going up north to bike with Daisy, so we are staying busy. <BR/>Scott went mountain biking and had a blast, he also did the rock climbing and won the race when they competed on who could climb the mountain the fastest. He's having a blast. <BR/>I am so excited about what God is doing in both of you and threw both of you. <BR/>I'm so greatful for all the wonderful supporters that sacrificed so that you can have this experience. Make them proud.<BR/><BR/>You are loved more than you know!<BR/><BR/>Mom and Dad StensrudAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29112661.post-77177161968330782452007-06-14T12:59:00.000-05:002007-06-14T12:59:00.000-05:00Ashley - It was great to see another note from you...Ashley - <BR/><BR/>It was great to see another note from you.

I am glad that it appears that you still have all your digits and have not drilled a a hole through something you need while working on the construction project. Baylor is really homesick and needs our prayers, please pray for the Lord to comfort him and give him confidence. We have not heard from Nash but Heather has a phone site and everyone seems to be having a great time in Colorado. The house is REALLY QUIET with all three of you gone. Did you feel the earthquake? Grandma called and said that it was "a really bad one - the worst of all" but it sounds like there was minimal damage. Have you had a chance to read the book I sent with you? I am sure that you and everyone will be blessed and be a blessing glorifying the Lord Jesus Christ in His service!<BR/><BR/>Love Dad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29112661.post-76280756477293255242007-06-14T07:25:00.000-05:002007-06-14T07:25:00.000-05:00Hi Trent!It has been so fun to see your face in th...Hi Trent!<BR/>It has been so fun to see your face in the pictures!

I think Colin missed an evening practice while I was gone to ISU with Bret. We returned this afternoon after a Nike outlet store stop. I think the trip was successful for Bret (they put him in the honors program(!!!) and he has an 8am class three days a week)...alot to tell you. Kyle is doing a good job with the kids. I have done a little Boards studying...very little. We were busier at ISU than I anticipated. <BR/><BR/>Question- do I need to do anything with the accounts? You didn't say anything and I have written several checks (our account, not business). Please advise.<BR/><BR/>Bret is out on the lake (big surprise). Cameron had soccer practice. Kyle is out with Amy. Colin is spending the night with Jake from his team. He told me soccer tryouts are going very well. It has been hot and a little humid here, making soccer tryouts tough.<BR/><BR/>Please convey to everyone that all of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
