"Hey it's good to be back home again" (John Denver)

Greetings Everyone,
Well we made it through the big 10 day trip! Janielle went to Topeka for a while and I was in Grantsburg, Wisconsin then Duluth, Minnesota. I was at the Lutheran Outdoor Ministries Administrative school and conference. What a beautiful part of the country. The trees were in full bloom and the color was incredible. Another added attraction was that there were 10,000 cranes migrating, and we got a chance to see them too. It was hard being away from the little guy for so long, but all is well now that we are all back together. I hope all of you are well and enjoying the cool fall weather. Take care and God Bless.
Peace,
Ben

The Fulton Men

Greetings Everyone,
Well today David and I had a little outing to the college. We went and had pizza with the other ministry minded students. David as usual was a hit and everyone loved him. We met Professor Bishop and got to play with Miss Brenda who has become one of David's favorite people at the school. Dad and David got to dress alike for the first time and we even had the same kind of hiking boots on! Not long before David is bagging peaks in Colorado with old pops.
Peace,
Ben

WE MADE IT!!!!

Well Friends,
We made it out of our first Hyllingsfest ALIVE! That is a miracle. I worked at the coffee shop Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and it was CRAZY! I have never seen so many people in our little town. It was a good turn out though, and everyone seemed to have a good time. Grandma and Grandpa Fulton came up and walked around with David and Janielle, and David got to see his very first parade. It was a good experience, but we are happy to be back to the small town life where a traffic jam consists of four people at the one four way stop in town at the same time! The pictures are of David and his first haircut this week, David adn Grandma Fulton at the Hyllingsfest, and our cute little guy just yukking it up! Take care and I hope to hear from you all soon.
Peace,
Ben

Hyllingsfest Weekend

Greetings Friends and Family,
Well Friday starts the beginning of this Swedish festival called Hyllingsfest. I will be working at the coffee shop for most of the weekend, and it is expected to be super busy! Life here is hectic as usual, and it seems that this year is just zipping by. I do have some prayer requests though. A professer here at Bethany College has developed cancer, and he and his family are really struggling. His name is Roger Bishop, and he has been a good friend and teacher to me. He is a Psychology professor, and has been at Bethany for Years and Years. Please keep him and his family in your prayers. Thanks and I hope all of you are doing well, Please leave me a note and let me know how you are.
Peace,
Ben
