Prayer request

Aunt Linda & I

Linda and her son Jamie


Please say a prayers for my Aunt Linda. She just found out she has a brain tumer. She wasn't feeling good and thought she had a stroke. When she went to the dr. they found the brain tumer. It is growing and already pushing on things and causing trouble. Her left hand wasn't working right and she couldn't type was the first thing she noticed. They are going to be running alot more tests this coming week. They are now looking for the primary tumer. Please say a prayer for her.
Enjoy the moment, don't worry about the future. It will take care of itself and there is nothing you can do to change it. If you spend all your time fearing what may or may not happen, you will look back on your journey with regret rather than joy.

A little of this and that...

Wednesday I was out running some errands early while Kyle had the boys and stopped in to say hello at therapy. Got to see everyone. I really do miss them. Not the therapy though. Mary thought my hand looked pretty good. She was disappointed they couldn't do the surgery on my wrist. That might have allowed me to not have to wear this splint all the time. Anyway, it was great to see Mary and all the gang. I hadn't been in in over two months. I was needing some stuff to wear under my splint and needed to find out where to get it. They may have to special order it at therapy since my arm is so little. My CRPS is doing pretty good when I eat a strict diet. Otherwise it will act up and I can't take care of the little people I love. So to give up some tasty treats is nothing to being able to enjoy life with Kyle and the boys.

I am enjoying the summer with my boys! I don't remember last summer... They are so precious and I love spending time with them. We go for walks and bike rides, park, library, swimming and lots more. They only have 5more weeks out of school. They are looking forward to school starting. Yes, my boys LOVE school... I am glad they do. I never liked school and it's hard when is like that... Jeremiah will be in 5th grade and moving to the next school. Jonas will be starting Kindergarten at public school. He attended a private k last year. Malachi will be attending preschool 1day a week starting this fall.

I can't wait for my MOPS group to start back up in Sept. I am also going to do childcare for 2 other mops groups 1day a week. Kyle has some dates he is going to be speaking starting in August or September. He is hoping to get more speaking dates set up soon.

All in All we are doing good. Having a rough time finding our spot in ministry and the devil really hits us hard when we get close... We have both been hit hard this week. Please pray for strength for us to stay strong... It's really hard to stay focused when you are getting hit at every turn.

Mini Golfing




After church last night we took the boys mini golfing. It was lots of fun... Then we went and hit some balls at the bating cages. I proved to myself I can still hit a mean ball. ;-) Feels good to be able to still do some stuff...

I Love America Pictures!!




The boys are enjoying some ice-cream!

They were attaching poor daddy!

We had a great time at I love America last night! We got there a little after 5pm. We first ate some supper we had brought in our cooler and then we played games for awhile. Then we headed for some ice-cream and to listen to some music. The boys loved the fireworks. Well 2 of them anyway. Malachi did hide under the blankets part of the time. ;-) After the fireworks they had the group LeeLand come on stage and they were awesome.

Me and my adorable boys

Jonas had a great 6th birthday today! He started his day off with getting to go up on the top bunk bed since he is now 6years old. ;-) Then he went to VBS and had a blast. This evening we had a pizza party for him and then came home for cake and present. He was very excited that he got a Star Wars ballon and Star Wars Legos. He also got calls from all his grandparents to wish im a happy birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONAS!! WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH...
