1 Year!!!

Hospital Free that is. Sunday the 6th, marked our 1 year being hospital free!! It is the longest stretch in Blakes LIFE that he has not been in the hospital!!! I am SOOO thankful for this, as I'm pretty sure all those hospital stays has taken a few years off my life. We have only even had I think just one bad spell in the last year. We are right in the midst of the bad season though, so we are praying and hoping our spell is not broken!

Here it is, finally. I know I've been saying I was going to do this forever. I believe we finally have the water thing fixed, after 13 days we came back here, then 7 days later, dirt showed back up in the water. I think we are good to go now though! I have to say before you see 'The Plex' there is still things missing on some walls, and you get to even see 'hell'. I thought I may as well give you the good/bad/ and ugly.. (no there is not a picture of me on there) Some of the things you'll see though are my valentines gift from Blake this year. I'm not much of a valentines person, but Nick helped Blake make me a present and I am VERY grateful for that I love it!!! (look on the table) The paint job in Blakes room could of NEVER happened without the help of Mike and Kim! Or the painting in the rest of the place. We (I say that very broadly) have painted my room, both bathrooms, kitchen/dinning, and Blakes room. The rest will come later. We are trying to get all settled in and just can't wait for it to warm up so we go to use the baseball field across the street! Enjoy.

Newest news...

So the newest news with us, is that we currently are residing at my parents house. Last Sunday Jan. 30th, while I was doing dishes, we ran out of water. Like literal water stopped coming out of the faucet. So I try the breaker box etc... Nothing wrong so I call my landlord (the joys of renting) and let her know. A lot of very long stories later, I still do Not have water, or at least when there is water is is NOT livable water. There is so many 'floating objects' and just overall dirt in the water that there is NO way I'm going to stay there. So as they were finally going to have a well company come out today to look at it, but that didn't happen. They tell me that they hope to come tomorrow, but with our predicted weather they are not sure it will happen then either. I LOVE paying for a storage unit. So I do still promise that I will post pictures of it, that is if/when we get to move back in. It's just been great, but Blake has thought it's pretty freaking awesome to stay with G-ma and Papa this many days, not to mention he gets to sleep with me!!!

Update

Hey so I thought I'd send out an update. I am Not going to be taking classes this year. At the December board meeting the board changed their mind and they are not going to train but one person, so one of the hearing impaired teachers is going to be taking the classes. I am very frustrated by this I was VERY excited for the opportunities it was going to bring me, but I guess God has some crazy plan for me right now, and someday (hopefully soon) I'll see where he's going with all of this. Anywho I thought I'd also share a few pics with you!

Alyssa and Blake created monster puppets and then put on a puppet show for us. Loved their creations and watching thier little minds go!!



Blake and Alyssa LOVE playing Dodge Ball with each other, and just thought this one was cute so I wanted to share. They also love to hang out in thier PJ's all day when we let them!!



Well you can't really tell here yet, but we are planning to grow Blakers hair out and just see what we get. We've NEVER had it longer at all,but we have no holiday's no pictures nothing coming up so we'll see how long it gets before we give up, but maybe you'll see it grow on here. This is about the longest it's ever gotten (before that first haircut I guess)


Hope you are all doing well, and I promise I'm going to try to get some pics of "The Plex" on here soon, but I'm still trying to get stuff hung on the walls so it won't look so bare in the pictures. Just never got stuff up before put up Christmas stuff, now I'm trying to figure out what I need and where everything will go.

Sledding

We have gone sledding two different times. Once with Papa Donnie and Grandma Connie at their house being pulled by the gator. Which I then realized when we took him to go down a hill with the Hunters that we had never been sledding down a hill before. He was a little scared at first, then decided to go with me the first time. I think he would of loved it, had we not crashed and tumbled the first time down.. Yeah go mom.
