I figured that since I’ve been on a roll with my blogging lately, that I couldn’t stop now. I don’t really have anything new and exciting to share but I am excited that last night, for the first time in forever! I slept really really well. I might have woken up once at the usual 6am time but other than that, I slept right through. So good that I had sheet marks all over the place. I think I’ve been doing better at the sleeping thing because this week Heather and I have started back walking together after work. We walked only 2 times this week but once for an hour and the other for an hour and a half pretty fast paced. Justin and I have also been trying to remain active after work while it’s still daylight. We spend much of our time outside with Java or home improving. I love the Spring daylight!

One of the many perks of being Justin’s Wife
Yesterday, afterwork, Justin and I went to Pastor Stan’s house. They took us out to supper and then back to their place. Stan recently bought a new computer (with Justin’s help) and needed his assistance in copying files over and setting things up. I got to come along just for fun hehe. I got to play Uno with Destinee (their grand-daughter/daughter, long story). I tell you what, that girl is good at Uno. She is quite sneaky. All in all it was a lot of fun.
Surgery a Success!
Thank you all so much for your prayers for my friend. His surgery went really well according to the doctor. Hopefully he will be able to have a full recovery and no more relapses. Thanks again! God is awesome!
Prayer Request
Hey Everyone! I know that you are all such good prayer warriors so I am asking for prayer for a really good friend of mine that is having surgery this morning. I don’t know what time the timestamp will say when I post this entry but it’s about 10:10am and he is scheduled to have surgery at 11:00am. Will you pray for him and for his doctors that everything will go smoothly. Thank you so much!
Happy Easter!
Hey Everyone! Just wanted to wish everyone a Very Happy Easter! 5:50am came way too quickly this morning. When Justin and I got up, our animals were so confused as to why we were getting up and leaving in the dark. The sunrise service started at 7am. It was beautiful! We couldn’t have asked for a better service. This was my first one at Crestview. Last year Justin and I were in Russia for Easter and the years before we both went with our families. The animals were definitely into the service as well. There is a peacock, yes a peacock, across the street that started singing during a solo. I guess he really like the song hehe. There were birds flying all around us (even geese) and I can’t forget the cows. The cows were even moo-ing. It was a celebration that was for sure. Even all of God’s creatures were joyous. At one point during the service Pastor Stan was talking about Jesus being risen and alive and I thought it was so awesome that a little bird had pirched itself on top of the cross on top of the church and was singing as if to tell the world that Jesus has Risen! I did feel bad at the end of the service. Some EMS workers pulled up during the benediction prayer. They were just a little too late 🙁 We were then invited over to Jeremy’s house for breakfast between the service and Sunday School. It was a really great morning.
Yesterday, Justin and I were able to celebrate our family Easter time. Everyone gathered at our house this year. My dad always hides eggs for us outside. We decided to do plastic eggs this year in case we didn’t find some haha. Mike had camo eggs and Justin had green to keep it more exciting for them. Stacey and Lorraine came to join us too and although it was hot, we all had fun. Walker is getting so big! We hadn’t seen him since February 5th when he was baptized. Now he is scooting along in his walker and crawling and walking while holding things. He is just about 8 months old and I bet next month he will be walking for sure. What a smart and handsome baby boy. I love him so much! It was sooo good to see everyone again. I hope it won’t be too long til the next visit. Oh, and we went to Papas Pizza to Go for the buffet for supper. Mmmm Mmmm Good. I thought I’d spare them my cooking hehe j/k.
I hope everyone had a fantastic Easter!
Walker
Walker is 7 months old today. Can you believe it? Mom (Erin) says that he is pulling himself up to a standing position all by himself and even greeting people with a “Hey”. What a smart boy!
Java
Yesterday when Justin and I got home from church, we saw that our neighbor was down in the creek in his back yard burning some brush. We saw that Buttercup was out playing and Java (has now learned to jump up at the kitchen window and look outside) spotted her from the kitchen so we let her outside and decided to stay in the kitchen to watch them play. We didn’t think she would notice Roy in the creek but we were very wrong. She and Buttercup went zooming to the creek. Roy said that Java went over the steepest part of the bank and then went for the water. It was a good time. The dogs love playing with each other. Java loved the water (she used to be terrified of it). She even brought Justin a 6 foot branch from the water. I can’t wait til we can get our part of the backyard to look like Roy’s so Java can play more.
