A new family picture, more travel plans

This past week has been pretty busy, and we have all been battling a cold. So, Saturday we decided to try to get a good picture of the whole family. Many have requested pictures, and we will be printing them out for those who would like a prayer reminder card. We took a couple, and even left it up for a vote on Facebook. So far, the attached picture was voted as the best, but I also uploaded more pictures at http://picasaweb.google.com/cowperthwaitefamily/20100220 if you would like to look at more pictures.

Thank you to all who have sent cards, gifts, provided food, and many more things to help us as we adjust to Samuel's arrival. He is sleeping well, eating well, and surpassing weight goals. Sara is also healing well and feeling up for company. We really miss having company and look forward to seeing many of you soon. Just give a call to make sure we are around. We are amazed at the blessings of fellowship and love extended to us all the time. We look forward to our upcoming planned trip and have a few more dates for those who have been asking. You can view our ministry calender online, it is on the left column of this blog.

We have been wanting to visit Mark's brother, Wesley, in Tampa, Florida for some time, and while discussing the Central Florida Bible Conference, noted that the chapel hosting the conference is also in Tampa.. So, our plan is to go to Tampa April 9-12, Lord willing, to visit CBC for the conference and get some family visiting in as well. On the way back to Georgia from there, we want to visit with Isaac and Joanna Hebert in their new home in Candler, Florida.
