Wow.<\/p>\n<p>Seriously, it was a good weekend.  We really enjoyed being back at <strong>Cremona Country Fellowship<\/strong>.

We were invited out for lunch, and even got to take part in an Easter egg hunt.<\/p>\n<p>Shari&#8217;s parents and her sister were around, so we enjoyed some time with them and her brother&#8217;s family.  I uploaded a few pictures from the weekend, and even made a little video, so they can tell the story better than me!  <a href=\"https:\/\/cottrillcompass.com\/gallery\/main.php\">Check out our recent pictures.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now we have another crazy week &#8211; every day is packed full and we&#8217;re off to Saskatchewan on the weekend to speak at the <strong>Maidstone Baptist Church<\/strong>.

Fun stuff!<\/p>\n<p>This weekend Hannah and Nathanael got new Bibles.  They each got their own, and they got a nice Spanish\/English Bible to share, which means we all have bilingual Bibles now.
