It is almost unbelievable. I know for sure that God has a sense of humor! We got to Pella on Monday evening in very nice weather! Tuesday it BLEW from the south. Wednesday it BLEW from the north. Thursday was very cold and rainy. The worst of it is that it is the big TULIP TIME in Pella, IA. No parades! We did go get poffertjes from the downtown stand for lunch. This morning we woke up to several inches of snow! Predictions say it will change to rain. So no parade again! I feel so sorry for all the people who plan this event; for all the buses of people who come; for the food stands that depend on this event for their fund raiser; for the queen and her court! Yesterday, when Lyle waited in the van for the bus, with the boys, he said that God was in control. Cooper chimed in with, "Yeah, it is not our decision!"
