Thanksgiving


WOW!!! Thanksgiving came and went in a flash! After spending 2 weeks sick in bed, I lost an entire month. My favorite time of the year, I love pumpkins and decorating in warm fall colors. Above, you will see the extent of my fall decorating...I've obviously been preoccupied with things like being able to use my hands and walk.
We had a great Thanksgiving Day, the whole wekend really. Morgan and I cooked from about 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. and we were through eating in about 15 minutes! Then we walked to the park and enjoyed the 45 degree weather, leftovers for supper and peach cobbler!
This year I am most thankful for the fact that I don't know the future, don't even have to worry about it. My thoughts and imagination is so limited that I never would have imagined God would have us here being blessed by these precious kiddos. I am slowly learning that we continue to be blessed, even more so in hard times. Through sickness, bad behavior, temper tantrums and fussy babies...we have been blessed through people we barely know, test results, hugs and even being called mom and dad.
I am thankful I do not have to worry about my babies dying of Cholera, we have awesome doctors and insurance to help us pay them, church friends who went above and beyond anything we could have imagined to help while I was sick, and most of all...a husband that was sent into my life by God, my perfect match!!!

Belated Halloween Post

OK...So Halloween was a whileback. Thought I posted some pics but not sure. Below are a few pics of the kids party with the babysitter while we were at the Pogressive party. I thought the treats turned out pretty cool!

Bones...
Fingers...
Thinking of using this for the Christmas card...

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! I will post more soon...


Ok, so I am up

Bad Week

I don't have a lot to say just now...have been sick for over a week. Initially my doctor thought it was the "mini flu" (actual diagnosis). 4 days later I was still having severe joint and muscle pain. Friday Albert took me to an ER clinic. My blood pressure kept dropping so they sent me to the ER by ambulance. I was there all day. No fluid around my heart, blood pressure stabalized, no answers. Now i'm home, still in pain. ER doc said to be tested for Lupus.

Prayers appreciated.
