15 Year Reunion! Whooohoooo

This was my HAPPY FACE!! ( if you couldn't tell)
 
This past weekend I celebrated my 15 year reunion, and Chuck and I just decided to make a weekend out of it!
 
Addy had a Vball game Friday night in Boyd and so directly after that we went to Fort Worth and ate with some friends and stayed the night in FW. 
 
This was Friday right after game and I was so excited.  Chuck has been recovering from his surgery and we needed little break from everything.  It was so NICE!
 
 
 

This was Saturday night after the reunion. So good to catch up with so many people!
Erica and I
Sharon Ham-Hopper and I
 Erica, Christina and Shauna
 Monica, Lynn, Christina and I
 
 These Girls have some great moves, it was so funny watching them!
 
I think our moves are Wayyyy out of style though!
 
 
Until next time class of '98
 
 
 


Chucks Surgery :(

Please keep my Strong Husband in your prayers!
 
He had a neck fusion on C-4-5, C-6-7 on September 19.  No certain injury was a result from it.  He just got to where he could not turn his head and we found out through a MRI that he had 2 different herniated disc that were compressing on his spine to where its was being used to less than half.
 
Directly after surgery he was in pain and has been since then.  He is back at work and all the pain is still there.  We are praying that it will just take time.  He is unable to sit for long periods of time and still just having a lot of pain. 
 
I know that Lord will sustain him and this will and has only made us stronger.    God is good and has blessed the whole surgery and we Know that His hand is every upon Chuck!
 
We believe that God is healing him each and every single day!
 
Its Trust and staying in the presence of God continually and just thanking Him and what he has already done and given us in Christ Jesus!
 
God never said that this Life would be easy, but He said I will walk with you and hold your hand!
 
 

Isaiah 58:8
Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard. (NIV)

Chuck is unable to hunt this season, but that has not let him not live through his adopted sons Ryan and Cameron!

Volleyball 2013---Addison

 
 
 
Volleyball has been so fun this year.  The girls have a done great.  This was a Tournament in Saginaw a couple weeks ago and the coach had combined 1/2 from Varsity and 1/2 from JV.  Addy is the Libero for the team.  She is a great defender and has stepped it up a lot.  We are proud of her.
 
We got 1st place out of 16 4-A and 5-A schools, and we are a 2A
 




First Day of School 2013

Its hard for me to believe that all my children are in school.  It was so bittersweet for me!  Hannah started Kindergarten this year, Brenley started 4th grade and then..... tear...tear, Addison started High School!  Yes she is a freshmen in HS.  So crazy!
 
Hannah has been my little helper at home and I miss her so much!  She loves school though and truly loves interacting with everyone. 
Brenley is doing well too.  4th grade has been much more laid back so far!  And she is doing very good. 
Addy is loving HS.  She said it is so much more laid back as well and not as much drama!
 
She is playing Volleyball right now, and they begin playoffs this Friday in Winthrost,!
 
Go Peaster!
