I'm still here!

Were you  wondering where I went?  I haven't been too excited about blogging with my blog being so difficult and mean, but I think I've fixed the issues I was having....or at least made my peace with a new layout.  I've added an "About" page above and that has taken the place of the majority of what I used to have on my sidebar.  For reasons I'll never understand, The Internet decided I couldn't have a sidebar any more.  Sigh.  Oh well.  This will work too.

I have some really great pictures to post!   But I spent my entire Sunday afternoon trying to fix my blog layout and so the pictures will have to wait a bit longer - I'm computered out. I've got to get more streamlined in my picture taking, saving, and posting.  It is such a hassle.

We are still having a great time here in 'Merica!  (That's how Paige says it.)  It snowed yet again today - loving the snow and cold weather!  Mom and I did some shopping for Indonesia clothes and I have to admit it made me miss the warm weather a little bit - but more than anything I'm now terrified of the day I have to re-adjust to that heat and humidity!  I have thoroughly enjoyed wearing long pants and sweaters for a change.  And my hair!  I can actually fix my hair here!

And, with that totally silly comment, I will say good-bye for now!  Hope to post more soon!

Maddie's Big Day!

Image
I'm just gushing over here.  My second-born took a big step today and made a decision for Christ!  We were having a talk in the car on the way to the store about heaven and next thing I know she's over there quietly folding her hands and whispering a prayer to Jesus. When she was done, she looked over at me with a big smile and said, "I have so many blessings from God, Mommy!" Indeed. Happy Born Again Day, Madison Elizabeth!  We love you so much.

If you can't beat 'em....

Brooklyn can't seem to resist writing on the walls. I finally decided to put an end to the battle.... Now she has her own special place in her bedroom to be as creative as she wants (within reason). This can be painted over and it gives her some boundaries while still allowing her to be "creative." I'm not sure she'll have any interest in writing on the wall now that it isn't against the rules but I sure had fun painting on the wall. I'm tempted to paint myself a square to doodle and scribble on.

About Last Weekend

Image
  Let me just say, everybody is fine.  But that picture up there, in Brooklyn's sweet note to her Daddy, pretty much sums up our weekend.  Blood.  Lots of it.  Flowing out of Sean's foot.    On Sunday afternoon Sean was using a weed-eater to try and tame our wild, jungle grass in the yard.  This weed-eater, rather than having a nice, docile nylon string was basically a little metal machete propeller.  Which, incidently, is not so safe when you accidently get your foot in its way.   Ugh.  Let me just say that seeing my husband's foot bleeding profusely was mighty disconcerting.  I worked in a dialysis unit, mind you, and regularly dealt with people's blood.  But when it is somebody you love, it just can't be helped to feel a little woozy and worried at the sight.    Praise God, it wasn't a toe and Praise God it wasn't any worse.  We were able to drop the girls off with our teammates and get him to t...
