Prayer from a mommy's shaking heart!

I am writing this today not because I am afraid but because my heart is doubting. I ask you to give me strength as each day passes getting closer tot he surgery. I know that Doctors will be wonderful and that you will come through this very well. God I ask that you hold my hand. I am not feeling so strong in your walk and I need you to carry me. Watch over my John Micahel as he worries about his little sister that he will enjoy his time with Zoompa and not fret. Hold my Rob and give him the strength for both of us. I also ask that you keep Elise hoopers friend in your hands as she is waiting to see if her little baby is coming home to you or staying to grace her mom and dad with her presence. Thank you so much for being an awesome and mighty God and thank you so much for everything that you do for me on a daily basis. AMEN

Update on Rachel

So as many of you may or may not know last summer Rachel had to go to the hospital for dehydration from a stomach bug. While in the hospital they discovered that she had gall stones. So Sunday she started throwing up and complaining of pains. I took her to see teh doctor and he thought it was a bladder infection. Negative for that and then she threw up again yesterday. After some research the doc decided it was time to go back to Primary Childrens and se the surgery team she had seen last summer. We did today and they have decided to do an ultrasound on friday to determine whether or not she needs to have her gall bladder removed. Please pray for this one! Thanks!!!!!!

So I thought I would share my most recent knitting accomplishment. I made this cute little monster for the kids out of some extra fun fur yarn that I had and wanted to get rid of. It was way fun to make and they are enjoying it alot!

Our 4th!


So we had a blast on the 4th. Rob had to work and we normally go up to the park and ride and watch a lot of different displays form there but this year we got our own and did them in the street in front of our neighbors house! It was a lot of fun and the kids enjoyed it. We then went up on Saturday and spent the day at Lirror Lake with Jeremy and his famliy and brandon and his family. It was a lot of fun and we have decide that now we need a camper so we can go too. ANd also better bug spray!
