Finally..
Finally, an update from g-rap.....
we were very excited to be the one and only barlow reps in michigan for josh and la nae (correct me on spelling please!) wedding celebration. this is jon's "little" cousin, also known as one of the michigan barlows, who was married in colorado in may. for all the people in michigan who were unable to attend the wedding, the barlows held a reception in michigan for josh and la nae. it also gave me just a little glimpse of how much jon is still loved and adored by all his cousins ( i hear him and his siblings were quite the entertainers when ya all were growing up).
the boys were absolutely loving all the trees in the backyard and uncle bruce and auntie linda's house...they wanted to climb them, but we insisted that they had to be able to get up and down all by themselves before they could go up in the tree. so they settled for being little monkeys.
i love the photo of grandpa and grandma barlow with keio. this was one of the first times they met him in CT this summer. grandpa is over 90 and this past week was experiencing shortness of breath and chest pains. he was brought by ambulance to the nearest hospital, and quickly transfered to another hospital where it was discovered he had a heart attack. a stent was placed in his heart and but it is not certain if the heart was damaged or not. we ask that you would join us in prayer for his healing and strength at this time!
the cute little blond is our niece linnea. just reminiscing of the summer fun we had with josh, jen and linnea! we anxiously await the next little barlows arrival in march?! : )
PRAYER REQUEST:
*almost two weeks ago there was major flooding in manila. my best friends 1st floor was pretty much destroyed and many
of our furniture and appliances are ruined....more importantly pray for the almost 300,000 who have no homes or clothes
or medical supplies!
*possible job for me (melissa).
*we will be meeting with the mission board we hope to go back to the philippines with tomorrow Oct. 9, 2009. Pray that we
will have some answers to our questions.
*jon as he is an absolutely amazing father and staying home with the boys this year!

Hey! I wanted to tell you about Savings Angel. I love it and yes, you do buy stuff you normally wouldn't buy because it's free or on sale. In my case it's been name brand stuff because I usually buy generic :-) What they do is take the sales inserts from the Sunday paper for Meijer, Family Fare, Target, Walgreens, etc. and tell you where to find coupons for all the stuff on sale and you get it for super cheap or free. It's not all processed junk, I got yogurt, tons of cereal (like literally 8 boxes), cottage cheese, cheese sticks, etc. for next to nothing. Just look at the inserts to see if that's stuff you eat, and the nice thing is you can do it and if you don't like it you can quit at any time. If you sign up use my number: 19252 and I get money for it :-)
