Good Friday morning!!  How was everyone's week?  Yes!!!!!  A 3 day weekend!!!!  Just wish it wasn't getting so hot again.  Since I have Monday off I will have my little buddy Tyler with me.  Woohoo....can't wait!  Wonder what kind of adventure/trouble he and I can get into next?

Congratulations to Travis and Jessica Coyne on the birth of their son Braden Travis Coyne!  He came into the world yesterday on Jeff's birthday.  We are so happy for your whole family!

I don't have a new update for you on the one little girl Electra's condition but hope to this weekend.

Prayer requests:  Prayers for little Ethan Cosio who is sick.  That he will feel better very soon.  For a friend who had knee surgery recently.  That the surgery was a success and that she will heal quickly and be back on her feet again soon.  Also for Angel Linda's niece who is still in the hospital in a lot of pain and running a fever from infection.  That she can get the right help that she needs.  And for continued gaining of strength and healing for Carl Hinshaw who suffered from a stroke.  Also for Del Asbury's health.

2 Thessalonians 3 verse 16:  May the Lord of peace himself give you his peace no matter what happens.  The Lord be with you all.

Have a fantabulous day everyone!  Today is another gift from God and He is so Good!  Remember to thank God everyday for answers to prayer and for all the blessings we get.

Question:  Do you like a firm mattress or a soft one?  Thankfully Mike and I both like a very firm mattress.

Good Thursday morning!!  First and foremost this morning I would like to wish my precious son Jeff a very “Happy 24th Birthday”!!!!!!  Okay….he is really going to kill me when he sees this but you know…..that’s what parents do…..they embarrass their children.  I can’t help it.  He was such a cutie.  Here he is at 7 months old.  We are going to celebrate his birthday this weekend.  Have an awesome and fun day today Jeff!  Your family loves you!

Update on the family involved in the car accident.  The family was able to donate the organs of their 10 year old daughter Calista, that was declared brain dead. It eases my heart just a little bit to know that some other children will be saved because of her.   The 12 year old daughter Electra, has a fighting chance to live if she can hang on until Friday.   I don't know all the details on what is wrong with her but lets keep her in our prayers for a miracle that she will pull through. Pray for her mom, siblings and family for strength.  I cannot fathom what they are all going through.  Thank you prayer warriors.

Prayer requests:  For some couples that are just having a rough time of it emotionally and financially.  The stress is causing problems for their marriages.  They are asking for prayer for God to ease the burden’s that life is throwing at them right now.
Philippians 4 verse 8:  Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right.  Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others.  Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about it.
Have a terrific day today everyone!!  Today is another gift from God and He is so Good!!!
When is the last time you ran a mile??  It has been quite a while for me.  :)  I'd rather walk at a fast pace.

Good Wednesday morning!!  Wow.....September 1st already.  The holidays will be fast approaching!  ha ha....I am so not ready to think about that yet!  This year is flying by and I know the next 4 months will be so busy......God willing a good busy.  Keep celebrating each day of life everyone!  Count your blessings and thank God for them!

So Tyler went for his first haircut yesterday.  I will let the pictures help tell the story.  Here is Tyler's "before" picture.  By the way....he had just woke up from a nap and was trying to figure out where he was and what was happening.

Tyler HC 01 

Jill Deen cutting his hair.  So far so good.

 Tyler HC 02
At this point he was tired of getting his hair cut and after offering him many things to play with, Jill had to pull out her biggest distraction.....a candy pacifier sucker.  He loved it!  So not only did he get his first haircut yesterday but his first candy too.  (He never has used a pacifier....he never liked them).

Tyler HC 03
Tyler's "after" picture.  What a handsome boy!  Thank you Jill!  You were great!  Jill also gave Jenna a certificate for Tyler's first haircut with a lock of his hair.  So sweet! 

Tyler HC 04
I will return to showing you more pics from Jeff's trip to Europe tomorrow.

Update from yesterday's prayer request.....one of the little girls that is in very critical condition has been declared brain dead and they will probably be taking her off of life support today.  The other sister is still very critical and only time will tell.  The family is so overcome with grief.  Please continue to keep them in your prayers. 

Prayer requests:  Angel Linda's niece to be healed and feel better soon.  Jobs!  There are still some people who are asking for prayer to find a job.  Please keep praying that they find one very soon. For someone who has some new health issues.  That the Dr. figures out what it is and that she receives the right treatment.   And a special request for someone who just wants prayers that life will get better.   Everyone is so thankful for the prayer warriors here!

Numbers 6 verses 25, 25 & 26:  May the Lord bless and protect you; may the Lord's face radiate with joy because of you; may he be gracious to you, show you his favor, and give you his peace.

Okay the question from yesterday had some funny answers.  Jenna.....I knew you would know the correct answer and I wasn't too far off.  I boil mine for 12 minutes.   Denise R....hilarious!, Kori W.....never heard of boiling eggs that way before,  but hey...it saves time and another pan.  My next question is......how often do you use your crockpot?

Good Tuesday morning!  Thank God for such a beautiful day yesterday!  Well Jenna couldn't hold off any longer.....this afternoon Tyler is going to get his very 1st haircut.  We were hoping to make it till his first birthday but his hair is too long and in his eyes so he is getting it cut.  He is going to look like such a big boy after it is cut.  Of course Nani will be there to take some pictures.  I will let you know how it goes.  I still can't believe he is 10 months old.  His 1 year birthday is going to be here before we know it.  Can you believe it?

Here are a few  more pics of Jeff and Angela in Paris.  This one is by the Seine River.

I am still hearing more stories from their trip and hope that someday the whole family can go.  Tomorrow a couple of pics from Amsterdam, Holland. 

I have a new appointment with my oncologist on September 16th in the afternoon.  PET scan is September 11th.  Thanks for keeping me in your prayers for a clean scan and a good report.  I am so thankful for your support. 

Prayer requests:  For a friend's cousin who was killed in a car crash yesterday.  He had his 4 children with him.  2 are okay and 2 are in critical condition and not expected to live.  HIs wife and his other 2 children that are okay really need our prayers right now.  So if you could stop for a few seconds and throw up a quick prayer right now that would be great.  Thanks everyone.

Philippians 4 verse 8:  Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right.  Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others.  Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about.

Have a terrific day everyone!  Today is another gift from God and He is so Good!

Silly question that everyone has a different answer to.....How long do you boil a hard egg??

Good Monday morning!  How was everyone's weekend?  Now that I am back to work the weekends go by so fast.  Loving the cooler weather we are having.  Hope it stays....I am looking forward to fall.   I am also looking forward to the 3 day weekend we have coming too! 

So good to have Jeff and Angela back!  We got together with the family on Saturday afternoon and had lunch while they showed us a slide show of all the pictures they took while in Europe and we heard a lot of their adventureous stories.  It was a trip of a lifetime and I am very happy they got to go. The first country they landed in and visited was France.  Here are a couple of pictures from Paris.

Here they are at the Eiffel Tower.  It had been raining that day.

More pics coming this week. 

Prayer requests: For someone who is hospitalized with blood clots in his lungs and legs.  That the medication will start to work quickly to dissolve the blood clots and to have no complications in the process.  Also for God's healing for the families who have lost a loved one.  That God will continue to lift them up and bring comfort to them and to feel at peace. 

Isaiah 41 verse 10: Fear not, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed.  I am your God.  I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.  verse 13:  I am holding you by your right hand--I, the Lord your God--and I say to you, Don't be afraid; I am here to help you.  (I can't begin to tell you all how many times I have prayed for God to hold my hand and get me through some very difficult and painful periods in the last few years.  I know He did.....I could feel it.  Thank you God!)

Have a super day and week everyone!  Today is another gift from God and He is so Good! 

Question.....Would you rather watch a sitcom, a reality show, a police drama, a legal drama, or a medical drama? Or something else?
