Saturday was a good day..the girls were pretty good all day and stayed mostly quiet..jon kept working on his speech..i put him into his bed at 7pm and he continued working on his speech-
we ate captain crunch for dinner - jon had 3 bowls of it!!
Sunday is good so far..we woke up at 815 late to get ready for church- but with the help of the Kennedy's who always come over to help we made it to church not terribly late..
its now 2pm..my friends invited the 2 older girls over for lunch and a church movie..so nice!!
i made my list of things to pack- and of course its forever long..but i can get it done now that i have a list to work off of!!
Jon is resting after his 2 bowls of spaghettios- i know so healthy! captain crunch and spaghettios- he's easy to please!! im going to start packing everything up and get it into the car..Robert, Sandra and Scott will be here shortly to help..Sandra will stay here with the girls and then head down to OC for the day while the painter finishes up painting the trim on the flooring..then bring them back and meet us here late tomorrow nite..OR maybe shell want to keep them at her house over nite and then my mom can bring them back for me on tuesday afternoon...
I think after dinner we'll head down to LA to the marriott where the conference is and check into the hotel room and prepare some more..
PLEASE pray super hard that jons speech goes well- that he's happy with it..that he'll be guided by the Spirit and be alert and awake and physically able to talk for 45 minutes STRAIGHT!! Last nite he said this would have taken me 3 days to do..i cant BELIEVE its taken me 6 weeks!! His presentation is not about his company..that would have made things MUCH easier- but its actually on the Geography of Outsourcing..so he's had to do alot of research and get LOTSSSS of help from family to get him thru this- and for that we are SOOOOO incredibly thankful!!!! we have the magazine FINALLY printed and ready to display and hand out at the conference as well as all the ones that got mailed out-- writing that article also took jon 6 weeks to complete..but with again help from the family- he got it done..and JUST in time too!
The conference starts at 9am to 5pm..with a lunch at 12pm with the other speakers..then there are lots of people that want to meet with jon after 5pm there to discuss business..so that will be interesting! im excited to see jon in his "element" or in "his game"..its been along time since ive seen jon the way he use to be..this has been a LONG hard road already..but he's working so hard and come so far..im excited to see him come alive as he gets back into things like this!
Well again-pray for him and wish us luck!

Jon has done his part, Heavenly Father will do the rest. It will be a beautiful time tomorrow Christina, there are times in our lives when we are witness of the Gospel in Action, tomorrow will be one of them. Oh how great will be your joy to see such a Miracle in action. To be a witness of the spirit working though someone! There has been Joy in the Journey, thats the best part.
Like Jon said,..What would have taken him 3 days now took 6 weeks.I am sure the journey has been a blessing of a different source. Like i have said before, he may not have his movenments in his legs and arms completely but he still has his Voice, and tomorrow it will be heard!!
Way To Go Jon Hales!
