WoW!!!


I have been away for so long I an embarrassed to even try to blog. There really is no explanation---just life is busy!! Oh and I am LAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our highlight was going back to Seattle for Brian to do a wedding for Melissa and Nick. It was a beautiful time to see friends and family. We had a wonderful time connecting with friends at our old hang out Torreros. YUM. The company was awesome and so fun!! It was Brian's first trip back in two years. He was a little overwhelmed but I think in a good way.

Our trip was planned before we knew that Brianne and Scott were expecting! So it was such a treat to spend time with them and try to soak in all the Baby Vibes we could before we had to return home.

Life in Kansas goes on!! No twisters yet, here anyway. Good news that!! We have been BUSY updating the Youth room and the Children's Church room. Sometimes I still dream I am painting. The great news is that we have 45-50 kids coming on Wed. nights!! That's a Praise! Makes all the hard work worth it. Warren and Linda came for a visit right before the open house and true to ministry tradition we put them right to work assembling furniture.

We do have something I never would have NEVER foreseen and I mean NEVER!! 3 DOGS!!!!!!!

Of course you all know about Daisy, she is Brian's baby. Then there is Sadie a German Short hair that he rescued and sent to hunting school (she points the cat?), and one of Brett's friends who stayed with us a bit this summer brought us home Heidi, a Wiemereiner, she is sweet and beautiful. But really 3 dogs---WOW!!

We are anxious for little William to make his grand appearance, approx Feb.23rd. Poor Bri has had queasiness all through out but she is a trooper and Scott is taking wonderful care of his family. I am happy because I get to come up in Jan. for a baby shower and the turn around and come again in Feb.!!

Brett is doing great. He is in his last year at Tabor. He is ready to be done and be out in the workforce. Maybe someone should tell him it's not so great---nah--he'll find out ;-)
He had an awesome opportunity to visit New York with Scott and Bri in Oct. a babymoon! They all had fun and saw the sights. Brett brought home lots of goodies-Tshirt's, several watches, a purse not sure what else but I know that Kelly enjoyed her gifts and Brian his watch, me well :-)
Miss you all. so lame not to stay updated--will try harder--

Nice to see an update! I have been slacking off on my blog too-so much to do! It was great having you and Dad visit!
I do believe you got a $200 skirt the first time Scott and I went to NYC, and... if you really do want a Central Park Rollerdancers tank top- I'm sure it can be arranged!

I have been thoroughly chastised!!
You are right. I still LOVE the skirt by the way ;-)

I didn't check the blog for a week and there is an update. Is this like a watched pot?
I was great seeing you both in Sept and hope to see you soon.
Bri looks great, hope she is feeling better.
