Well, Tim got into his 1st apartment on July 1, 2008. Good sized place on the inside and perfect for his needs. We’re all excited for him and hoping him the best. Tim is off today, but after staying up until wee hours of the morning we’re all sleeping in. We plan to go get some food in for Tim and some more basic staples. You don’t realize the conveniences you get used to.
Keep Tim in your prayers that the Lord will protect him coming and going to and from his apartment. Also protect his home from any intruders be it human, insect, or rodents. 
He has a nice place to call his own home. Love ya Tim!!!

Well, we didn’t make it out to church today because Luke was scared that he’d get in trouble by his Home Supervision Officer for some reason. Even though we were told he was good if we call him out. Since we’ve had many things going on helping mom and dad bowman Friday and Saturday and we weren’t home for him to meet up with his Home Sup. Officers we decided to stay home to connect. Sure enough around 1pm he arrived and we were able to ask him all our questions and make sure everything is ok to go to church etc. As long as we call and let him know we’re taking Luke with us to Church he’s good. We do need to connect with his PO also and get permission for things, but it seems like the PO is busy and getting approval isn’t real easy to do. The Home Supervision officers are working with us though and helping with getting the info to the PO. They’ve given us approval for Monday’s trip to New Port area and said they’ll speak with the PO. If any problems, they’ll let us know. So Luke’s mind was put at ease. He doesn’t want to do anything to get himself back to Juvie, if he can help it. We’re good for now. Hopefully the PO and Judge will gain favor for Luke’s efforts to abide by the rules and not want to take chances to get in trouble. I’m impressed that he cares to make sure. That is definitely a change in Luke.
So right now we’ve got Luke’s home arrest, Mom and Dad’s computer went out and Russ had to set up their new mac, travel up to Newport Area for Russ’s work on Monday and then off to see Tim Lord willing for a few days after that, and financial frustration in between waiting and watching to see how the Lord helps us through it all. Please keep us in your prayers as we face a lot of changes.

Wednesday night Russ and I barely slept a couple hours. Not knowing how the juvenile court procedures go or how traffic would be to get there by 8am, we decided to leave the house early. We left about 6:30am to be sure to get there. Fortunately traffic wasn’t too heavy and we found the courthouse with minimal difficulty. Doors don’t open til 7:30 am so we decided to go over to a taco shop and share a breakfast burrito. Our nerves were on edge and stomachs upset just imaging all the possibilities of what could happen. Russ & I prayed together for the Lords wisdom to know what to say before the Judge and we asked for the Lord to help and protect Luke too. The Lord brought us peace and blessed the food we ate which helped our stomachs.
