lucky.

Do you ever think about your life and wonder, "how in the world did I get so lucky?" (and then to realize

that blessed is a more accurate word to describe your life)

I do.

I wonder that a lot.
Take Trevor for instance. He works so hard to provide for our family, working many hours. He loves his

kids and his wife (me) and his dog. And his country (that just seems fitting to add right now).

He has been gone most evenings this week and everyday and so having him home tonight just reminds me of

that. And it reminds me that sometimes I take advantage of his dedication to us.

After working a lot this week, he came home to a party with 6 girls (a just for fun party) and decided to take

the boys out to dinner and to spend some time with them. After that they came home and cleaned out the

shed to get it ready for some chicks.

And he's planning on spending time with me a little later tonight (wink, wink....).

EEEWWWW GROSS!

Jeez, we're just going to eat some chips and salsa, guys!

Chill out....!

I never say 'lucky' or 'hope'...instead I say 'blessed' and 'pray':)Two words that are more fitting:)

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
