Grams update

Although I haven't actually seen her yet, I have heard that "Doms" (which is what my kids call her) is doing really great. I am so thankful! I am so blessed because the Lord is good in helping her to heal so well... I can't wait to see her!

We are getting prepared today to go camping with George and JoAnn (and maybe my bro-I-L/fam) for the weekend. I am kind of excited, but nervous at the same time, as it has been increasingly cold outside and the kids have never camped before. I have actually not camped for a few years either! My husband and his dad have a woodburning stove in the tent that we are going to be sleeping in, just not sure how comfortable it will be for the kids and I. I am sure we'll do fine, and I can't wait to go to the apple festival that we are going to hit up on the way home. Yay for yummy apples! I am going to try and snatch up a bushel to make some treats for us... My friend Katie gave me a good idea last night, she was making apple butter and butternut squash soup... mmmm sounds great!

Psalm 127 v.3-5 and Mathew 19 v. 4-6 !!!

Pennsylvania--a couple pics!



I have been wanting to post pictures, but have forgotten until now... The one of Wyatt is on a turtle is at one of the malls that we visited while we were in PA... Adalai decided to crawl up into Kelly's comfy chair and snuggle up and go to sleep! She is so funny!
Anyhow, I wish we could go back there to visit this week. Ugh... This week is going to be hard... Grams is having her surgery in a couple of hours. They aren't sure how well the chemo/radiation secluded the tumor that they are removing, so they aren't able to even really tell her what to expect as an outcome to her operation. Please pray with me today as Grams goes in. I am exhausted cuz of the weather, which doesn't help things, but we are heading out to Waukesha right now to have both of the kids check ups. I am actually really excited because I want to get suggestions from our new pediatrician on Wyatt's eating habits (or lack there of!) and have some questions answered on sleep/potty training. Anyhow, it is good for me to have this appointment scheduled for this morning in particular!
