PRAISE GOD!

I posted last about our friend Dave, and Ben just came home from the appointment that he went to to meet the neurologist. He is our friends brother, which is such a comfort! Also, they have discovered that the tumor is not on his brain stem, which is where they originally thought it was, it is actually just inside of his ear! PRAISE GOD! Please continue to pray for him, as his surgery is on May 15th... and includes an obviously long recovery...
Praise the Lord~ So amazing!
Peace

Our Friend Dave

We got some really terrible news this afternoon. Ben's childhood best friend Dave, just learned that he has a brain tumor. He asked to be put on our prayer chain, but I wanted to post here, so please please pray for him. He has a daughter named Grace who is about 10 months, and a fiancee... We don't know too many details except that they are planning to operate (not sure when) and when they do, he it will require that he spend one day in the ICU, and one week as an inpatient at the hospital, and then 8 weeks of at home recovery. Please pray for their finances also at this time because he and Danielle both work. Anyhow, I just wanted to post this so you could pray along with us for healing and salvation for our good friend.
Peace

The kids having fun!

Just wanted to post a pic of each child, doing what they love the most. Adalai LOVES her baby, she will hug her, pat her and kiss her, it is the sweetest thing, and she loves to rock her in the rocking chair! And the one of Wyatt is at Dori's while Adam and Kel were here and he took out all of the cars that she had and lined them up in a row! SO SWEET!

Weekend fun

Left for Christophers house after Ben got off work on Friday. It was a late ride, but nice as the children slept, and Ben and I were able to just chat and enjoy some time to just catch up I guess you could say. We stayed in their trailer with then because they are doing a huge renovation project on their farm house. We had a great time catching up with our nephews and nieces! George is soooo cute and speaking so well, he just gets into everything! Wyatt loves to hang out with him and they went puddle jumping together in their gollashes on Saturday. SO cute, wish I could have gotten pictures! Ben and Christopher worked together to help two of his cows give births to calfs. They are super cute! So, they didn't get as much done on the house as they had set out to complete, but had a good time nonetheless! On Sunday, Wyatt woke up and was sick... Threw up actually, which is so wierd and caught me completely off guard. Not sure what that was about because later that afternoon he was running around outside like crazy! I was so thankful that it was just a short time of being sick. Poor guy. His uncle took good care to send us home well equipped with meds and a bucket just in case ;) Anyhow, it was a pretty nice ride home. The kids were worn out so we had a quiet nice ride and stopped for some yummy lunch. Worked out good too that we were able to head home a bit early because we got to cook out on the grill last night! So yummy, we made corn and brats... mmmmm Today was super gorgeous outside, so we ran to a trout fishing stream in Palmyra and I took the kids for a really nice walk and we hung out there for the afternoon. I got put on my heart monitor this morning and have to wear it until 11:15am on Wednesday morning... So that is kind of stinky, but my prayer is that if the Lord wants us to discover what I was feeling that it will just show up on this continuous EKG that I have going on. I think that I am stressed about it though because I have felt some heaviness in my chest today. Hopefully that can be detected too!
This week isn't so busy for us which is nice. We are going to try and sneak to the park tomorrow, but it is supposed to be rainy. I have still been doing a lot of spring cleaning and weeding through things. It is really helping me to declutter... woohooO!
Kids are heading to bed super early tonight (like an hour early for Wyatt) because they have been crabby all afternoon from not having a nap. Ada has quite a head cold, so she has been feeling stinky lately... So, bedtime in about 15 minutes! I rented some movies because I have decided to really look at the type of TV I was watching for awhile, and change some choices of television that I was feeling conviction over... So, tonight I am going to watch movies instead of reality shows (and that is what I am going to do all the time now instead of reality shows ;))
Have a great week!
