Update on Busy Times and Our Anniversary!

Well we had a great trip to Shipshewana. I really enjoyed myself and had a very peaceful time. It is really a beautiful place and I look forward to going back there again someday. It is a very religious community and all the people that we encountered were very nice thank God for that. Now I will have to say that the only hard thing about the trip was being without my girls and Johnny. I missed them and I am sure that they missed me. I think it will be a long while before I leave them again.

Well now we are in Aurora, IL. We are staying in a really quiet hotel with a pool and right now Johnny is gone to his classes and we are here alone. We plan on going swimming later and just hanging around here. Before we came my girls both had a round of the stomach flu and thank God it didn't last long because JoHannah came down with it the evening before we left. But with the Lord's mercy it all worked out and here we are.

Now today is our 8th Anniversary. We celebrated Friday evening with dinner and a movie and we had a really nice time. I am so thankful for the life that the Lord has blessed me with. We have had a really wonderful 8 years and I hope for many more. I have told Johnny that I want him to take me somewhere for our 10th so we have that to look forward to (if the Lord dosen't return first and that would be wonderful).

Busy and Getting Busier

Well things have been really busy lately, good busy though. We have truly been blessed over the last few weeks. Last week my husband was told that his company was getting bought out and would be under new ownership as of May 1st. We were a little concerned but all in all we know that the Lord will help us through what ever so we just prayed and we have been truly blessed. The company that Johnny is now working for seems great and they have big plans for him and we are very thankful. They have assured him that his job is safe and they have far better benefits which is something that we have been praying about along with out brethren here for a really long time and God has truly blessed us. We have a desire to have another baby if the Lord is okay with it and all of this has seemed to come at the best time. We do need prayer in this so if you think of us we would love to have your prayers.

Now to the busy stuff. A week from tomorrow Lord Willing Sis. Sondra and I are going to take a trip to Shipshewana (this is the first time I have really been away from my girls). We will be leaving on Sunday and return home on Tuesday evening. We are really excited to go if and hope that we are blessed with good weather and a nice peaceful trip. Then when I get home I am going to be packing up and heading out on a trip with Johnny and the girls to Aurora, Illinois. We will be gone for a week Johnny has to take some classes for his job there and his boss said that we could travel with him so that is what we are planning. So we are going to be busy in the next few weeks not to mention our 8th Anniversary is the day that we leave for Illinois. So lots going on here and I hope that I will still be able to read the blogs and if we do anything exciting for out Anniversary I will post about it later. I hope that all is well with anyone who reads this until next time.........
