Going upnorth this weekend.

We are going upnorth this weekend to see my brother-in-law and his family. I am really excited~! We haven't seen our nephews and nieces since Adalai was really little, and even then we only got to spend a few hours with them. So it should be fun! My father-in-law has a really nice trailer there on his own property that we get to stay in as a family, and it should be a fun little get away for the weekend! I have a lot to do until we leave though that is for sure. We need to make sure that we have supplies for the trailer and water for the baby's bottles and small stuff like that, but it is really important! So, I am making lists like crazy so I don't forget anything, and I am assuming that since it is -1 degrees outside here right now, that it is WAY colder up there! I pray that the weather lets us get there safely. We aren't leaving until tomorrow morning.
Tonight is the first of a few meetings with what's left of our "the journey" group. Had another couple leave yesterday. I am really sad about that. Really. Ugh, anyhow, we are going to start making decisions now for what our future holds.
Happy to report that Natalie and Ethan are both out of the hospital! I am going to email Mary and find out how they are doing, but I am so happy that they are both home now!
Today we are doing chores around the house and may make a quick run to Walmart, but I am not sure about that yet, taking the kids out in -1 weather, doesn't sound really too fun, but we'll see!
Peace to you over the weekend!

Natalie and Ethan

Little Ethan, that I asked for prayer for a couple posts back, has now been admitted to Waukesha Memorial because he has the RSV virus. My friend and I went to visit and see if we could help out yesterday and we were able to hold him for awhile and spend some time there, so that was great, I just feel horrible for Mary because she is now running between the two hospitals to her daughter, and her grandson. They have also found out that Natalie is having trouble with her hearing, and have found that she has a fracture in her skull. Looks as if though that she is going to be able to come home sometime this week, so that is really encouraging! Please pray for them!
This week is going to be busy for us, we are going to do laundry, and visit with Grams, and then babysit Sophie and stuff, and on Friday we are leaving for a trip upnorth to my brother-in-laws house. I am excited to see my nieces and nephews there. I haven't seen them since Adalai was about 3 weeks old.
That is all for now I guess, but have a great week!
Peace
