blog break

By -
We have an extremely busy couple of weeks ahead of us and since I'm fairly regular with this blogging thing... this is just to let you know, you won't be hearing from me for a while. I'm sure I'll be able to find several minutes here or there at night, but I think, just so I don't have to worry about it, I'm going to just not post until life slows down.

PLEASE pray that I'll get well. This cold/sinus problem seems to have become a permanent part of my body. VBS starts Monday! We're very excited. Ethan got his class shirt last night and I think he officially feels like one of the big kids. We were pleased to find out the weather is never supposed to peak above 89 degrees - we're praying it stays that way, since its all outdoors. I've had to promise my Dr. on several occasions that I will stay hydrated. Next weekend we'll be out of town and then when we get back, Ethan's surgery is next on our list. Oh, please pray that he'll stay well. So far he's fine. We've been faithful about giving him his vitamins and then trying some new herbal remedies to keep up his immune system (thank you, Gina!) and they seem to be doing a wonderful job. Makes me feel tons better NOT giving him all the crud you find on the store shelves.

Hope life is treating you all beautifully. Stay cool!

quick update: some of you have emailed, asking how I'm feeling (thank you!) I am better now, finally. The kids and Jason never did get sick - please pray for Ethan. He only has to stay super healthy for one more week. :)

His surgery is Thursday July 3rd. We will arrive around 7:30 in the morning and he will go in, according to his age. SO if there are kids younger than him, he waits until they're done. Since he's only 3, she said he will probably go in by 10am.
PLEASE pray. We very much covet your prayers.

I'll blog more asap!

One Thousandth blog post + GIVEAWAY!!

By -
This marks the  one thousandth blog post   for me !  If you added the blogging over at Jastef.net, I'm sure it would be far more, but I haven't blogged over there since Kara was a baby. For my simple mind, Blogger worked out much better for me. Sorry, husband.  I've been at this blogging thing for almost 8 years and I'm still not sick of it! I like to write {never thought I'd say that} and I really enjoy interacting with people; friends and then strangers who become friends.  Its great and its been a great way for us to share our day-to-day life with our families, since we moved.  Jason and I have been mulling around what I should do for a 1,000 blog post giveaway, just for fun. Not because I think my 1,000 post is as special to all of you as it is to me. We tossed around the idea of a Kindle, since Amazon dropped the price, but it was still... too much for me. We settled on a fun idea. You get to pick the final result, so read on and then be sure to l

keeping the sickies away

Probably like most of you Moms, I've been sick of being sick throughout the winter. Its such a fun, holiday time of year and totally stinks when you're stuck inside, with illnesses. And, if you're not a fan of getting a vaccine for every little bug that goes around, you end up realizing you have to do your research to learn how to build up the immune systems and keep your brood healthy. I'm also learning that when it comes to sickness {we're talking sickness that won't cause death}, its actually good for our bodies to learn to fight things off naturally and not constantly running to get shots or drugs to cure us from ever getting sick again {which those shots don't do anyway}.  I'm no pro and my oldest child isn't even 7 yet, so I'm definitely not posting this to teach you ladies anything. And, for those of you with older kids, feel free to leave tips for how you keep your family healthy or natural ways to fight off colds and viruses.
