It has been awhile since I have written.. our family is so blessed and I know that the lord is watching over all of us.. Devin has gotten his job back and David is now working... it has not been easy for anyone these past months, but we are all moving forward with great faith that things will continue to improve...
Dee is now back at work after being off work for 3 months, she was glad that she could go back to the job she left...
Dawna is wonderfull... she is past the year mark since she had the surgery ... what a journey she has made!!!I am so proud of her..
Dannie is a proud mom and her children continue to grow and give her surprises everyday...
Devin and Jill still have there hands full...being grateful for the gifts of the children in their home..
David and Jen are finally getting their own place again ...what a joy!!!
Dave and I are realizing more and more everyday that our family is the greastest asset that we could have ... we are so proud of all of them!!!!!

Christmas time this year was great...all the kids were home and the grandkids were as happy as ever.. we decided as a family that we would do the "homemade things"for christmas to give to each other.. it is amazing what each one came up with and everyone seemed to enjoy each other.. even though we all are worried about what will happen with the world economics, we showed each other that we love them and appreciate them... it was a wonderful time!!!

Dave loves being a grandpa.. his grandkids make him so happy especially when they come to him and no one else...

This year I got the privilege of making a quilt for my sister... It has been so fun putting it together and picking the colors that I thought she would like... my sister is so special to me and I love her alot and just to make her happy is the highlight of my day...

christmas tradtion is when all the kids line up youngest to oldest for christmas morning!!
