Java is doing much better. After a little scare on my part of her not eating or drinking, we took her back to the vet and suddenly she was much more perky and of course no one believed me haha. But I was glad to be more safe than sorry. She is eating and drinking again. Still not as much as she is used to but much better. She is getting her strength back too which is going to make things hard for the next week and a half. She already wants to play with her toys outside and we have to keep her on a leash most of the time so she isn’t tempted to take a dip in the creek. Poor girl! This morning she even jumped on the bed to tell Justin good morning (like she normally does) and then she was too scared to get down but we were able to get her down ok. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Just wish us luck in the next week and half to keep her as calm as can be.

I would like to wish a very first Happy Mother’s Day to my sister Erin. Also, to wish my mom, Justin’s mom, Meagan, and everyone else that reads my blog that is a mother. I hope you know how much you mean to us and your children. Enjoy your special day.

I also would like to wish Cary Caldwell a very Happy Bday today. I hope it’s been an awesome day for you.

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.

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 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!
