Look at me I am a young yipper at the ripe old age of 20 (young) something! In fact look at how young we all look. (My bro and sis). I was preggos with R at this time. It seems so long ago, but in actuality it wasn't. I awoke today to the most beautiful sunshine. They we're calling for cloudy and rain. So what a gift God blessed me with! 30? I guess I am okay with that :P
Oh well we got new windows installed throughout the house. Our friend Mark Fisher did them, and he did a magnificent job. We also got windowsills installed. We never had them before, so this was a treat. Neal has taken on the project of painting them and all the trim to match. Go Neal!
We decided to buy a swing set kit, from costco. Believe me I did my research! It is a rainbow, and it is nice! Hubs worked on it for a week. The kids are loving it, and not just ours :)
In March I was baptized. (Long overdue) And it was Amazing. I have been a Born again Christian for 8 years now and following the lord. I can't tell you why I have let this go so long. Anyway my pastor spoke and prayed things over me that stunned both neal and I. Only God would have revealed them to him. 
When I came out of that water. I truly felt cleansed. And quite frankly I have had quite a chip on my shoulder (just being honest here). I have decided and made it clear to some. I will not carry there baggage anymore. I will not be guilty for things (from my past) no longer! I know this sounds trite. But it's where i am at. I am still diggin through the heaviness of this commitment, but also rejoicing in this "new life" that God has brought upon me.
I was asked to take over the Mom's group at church and agreed. I know some think I am crazy, but I truly want to see this go on and have had positive feedback from the pastors at my church in regards to me taking this over, so I am pleased with that. I will leave you with one last thing. And I hope to not make it so long before I post again. Our pastor is having surgery on monday they are going to remove his pancreas as he has cancer. I am starting to get so sick and tired of cancer! I am praying for complete and total removal with no cells left and that he would have a speedy recovery. As you feel led, please pray for healing for him as well. Thank You!
