Common Courtesy

Hello everyone out in blogging land!
So I guess it's time to make a few rules here on my blog. It happens no biggie! If there is something that you would like me not to share on the blog please let me know. Also If I say something offensive to someone in my blogging please take it up with me via email or phone call. I do not mean to say offensive things or over step boundries of propriety. I just get excited when I hear good news that I want to share with those who've been praying for others across this country, that I don't normally get to talk with on a regular basis. So I apologize if I over step in anyway.

Now onto fun news!! Went camping this weekend, pictures to come later. Kids & I found a nice spot along the river about an hour from the house. The kids had fun playing in the sand and water. Had to chase down Shane since he didn't know we were at that spot. The kids didn't go to sleep very well but that happens sometimes. Woke up around 7:30 a.m., went to bed around 11p.m. We headed home around 8:30 a.m. and had a quite rest of the weekend.

Got a beautiful blanket from Shane's cousin Julie who just returned in the last month from teaching in Brazil with her parents for the last year. They are missionaries for New Tribes Missions and have been serving in Brazil for I honestly don't know how many years at least 30-35 years I think. She is home again studying more to return to the mission field someday. Thank you Julie, we are going to get a card out to you this coming week. God bless you and your work. And the work your parents & siblings are doing in Brazil.

Whew! Break for update

Long awaited update, we have made it through 7 weeks of school both for the kids and ourselves. It's been a productive semester, God has been guiding our steps and we're continually thankful for that! He has also been growing us and peeling off bandages of hurts I haven't dealt with. Through it all He remains faithful and I am most grateful for that. We've had a slew of birthdays roll through our house these past months. Dakota had hers on the 30th of January! She got some really pretty outfits from Grammie & Grandpa Aunt Nelma,Uncle Paul, and Cousin Steve. She also got a coloring book and sunglasses, another little doll, crown from cousins and neighbor kids, sorry if I forgot anything. We had a little party for her with homemade pizza! My little girl is now 5 years old, scary when she was once so little. My little boy Seth turned 3, February 15th. We had a family party on the day of his birthday. He got some great outfits, and cool cars from Grammie ...

Month in review

Image
As always it's remained busy for us this last month. We enjoyed a few days away from Portland at the end of March with Dawna, Kurt, and Girls; and Neva, Jason, Thomas, and Katherine. They are all getting so big, it was a treasure getting to spend time with all the nieces and nephew. Unfortunately, Kelli brought headlice home from school. Ugh! We are still battling this with the kids. I'm remaining vigilant. We had a great Easter with sunny weather, and school friends coming over for dinner. The kids dyed some Easter eggs Saturday afternoon which was fun to do. They all looked great in their new outfits. School is gearing towards the end of the semester so we are staying busy. It's been a good year thus far and we are looking forward to the journey of continuing.
