We love visitors... and the beach


We were so happy and excited to have Rob and Katina, Benjamin, Kayla, and Maya come visit us and spend Thanksgiving with us. We sure love this family. It was the kids first time at the ocean and they absolutely loved it. I wasn't planning on getting in the water but my little buddy Kayla talked me into it. It was a really overcast day, but we were able to play for about an hour before the rain came down. Even then, we had to drag the kids out. They absolutely loved it and spent a good part of the next day (Thanksgiving) also playing in the ocean. Thanks to our great photographer- Mike. Takes after his dad!

Hooray! How fun to see Robert and Katina and those darling children on their first trip to the beach!

Jen raved about how fun it was to be together with family for Thanksgiving. Thanks for hosting such a great party. She loved seeing cousins.

Heather, what a great job you did on not only having "My 3 Sons" and their families to Thanksgiving dinner but photographing it and sharing it!!! I've been getting calls this morning from my sisters. "Hurry up and get on line and look at the great job Heather did on reporting Thanksgiving on the blog." You worked really, really hard to pull all this together and you never gave up. I appreciate it more than you will ever know. Love, Sharon

What beautiful pictures. I'm so happy to think of you getting together. I know what it's like to live away from family and the joy of getting a visit from them. I hope you all had a grand time.

There's a hole in my heart. Well, there's one in mine. Seriously. Anyone who has known me for the last several years knows that migraines have been the bane of my existence. Enter: new neurologist. He tells me that there is a correlation between women with migraine with aura (weird visual sensations) and a specific kind of heart defect called patent foramen ovale. He suggests a special kind of EKG called a bubble study to rule out the defect. I go have the test done and what do you know- I have this heart defect. (My mom really likes this. I keep telling her that she made me defective)Not only do I have a hole in my heart, but the doctor told me that it was SO large that it was quite likely that I would have had a stroke if I had carried a pregnancy to term. WOW! Really! I know my heavenly father loves me. How do I know this? He gives me answers. Maybe not always on my time table, but they come. Why do I suffer with these debilitating migraines? Why haven't we had a baby? B...

This is me... on Plavix

Pretty, huh. Especially since I live in the land of perpetual summer and the accompanying bare skin. We all know that drugs have side effects. Just watch t.v. for a while, but really, do I have to have every one? Sorry, little bit of a pity party, but I just so want to feel healthy and NORMAL. Two nights ago I layed down for a nap and slept from 5 PM until the following morning at 7 AM. I have been achey, dizzy, fatigued, just overall felt nasty on this medication. Aaahhh.... Enough. I have missed a ton of work, but luckily I have such a kind, understanding boss who has worked with me through these last few months. I am taking this medication to prevent a blood clot in my heart and I have to take it for 4 more months. My doctor said he has never seen anyone really have a problem with this drug like I am having. They even tested me for swine flu. I am just trying to keep in mind the end result. A healthy heart and a healthy baby. I know dealing with this medication for the next four mon...

Blogging again!

I have decided to start blogging again. The purpose is to serve as a journal or record for my girls. My posts might be a little out of order or all over the place for a while as I attempt to get caught up. While the audience I am writing to is my two daughters, those friends and family who have read and would like to read our blog are welcome to! Share in our joy! For truly it has been the most joyful year of our lives where many prayers were answered and heartaches were healed.
