February 2013

Happy New Year....a bit late but non-the-less...may God bless you in this year ahead.  My goal setting last year went really well!!Continuing on in the card making/sending goal...continues to be fun both to make & let someone know we are thinking of them.  My other goals have gone really well also-other than my blogging monthly...not accomplished to the end yet, but all works in progress!! My "secret" goal also is moving forward!!

We are expecting a grandchild....a precious little girl! Our daughter is expecting again after experiencing many losses, and she is almost 24 weeks along!  God has kept His hand upon both mommy & baby-things are progressing along very well!. Lisa needed surgery a few weeks ago to keep little Amarisa Marie hidden away as snug as a bug til the time is right to make her appearance!  All is going great.  We are continuing to pray she stays put as long as possible.  She is healthy & growing as drs want. She is due in June!  God is great! 

Oh how I appreciate running water and sewer sytems!!!!  Our septic tank quit working last weekend...how quickly we take things for granted until something does not work right.  Flooding floors, backed -up tubs, a yard all dug up and small amounts of water to be used until working again. Fortunately, after pumping, STILL not working and snaking out the lines, we are back to normal. Well, almost!!!  The tank is very old and has a super large lid-which fell in.  So this weekend my sweet hubby will be trying to pull that out and close up the gaping hole! He has three projects now going in the yard.  All of which involve large, long gaping holes in our pretty yard! The grass WILL grow again!!

Spring has sprung early for us this year.  Flowers, weeds, roses are sprouting, budding & blooming.  Way too early for us in this area.....worried about my flowering trees and the fruit trees in our area.  Too early to bud out for sure! "Yard work break" is coming to a grinding halt!  Happy Spring everyone!!
