Well 2013 has started, we have had many celebrations and heartbreaks already.
In January we celebrated Hugh's 51st birthday with all four of our children and a few family members. In true Hugh fashion we celebrated for a full week of meals, cakes and fun. He tells us he is now over 50 and can say and do anything he wants and we can't say anything about it. He brings such laughter to the family and as you all know there is never a dull moment with Hugh in the room.
Brian gave us a little worry back in December when he developed a blood clot in his leg. During the night of his second day the blood clot went to his lungs. The Dr's have his medication on track and he is doing well. Thankful for the wonderful blessings of his girlfriend Julie and the many nights she stayed with him at the hospital. Julie is a wonderful addition to Brian and a blessing to all of us.
Hannah continues to work at the daycare and is living on her own. She is enjoying life and singing in the choir at her church. She doesn't live alone but has a puppy and a cat to keep her company. She is doing really well and having the time of her life being in her 20's.
Tyler is just being Tyler and enjoying is Junior year of high school and hanging out with his friends. I wish that he viewed his school work as important as he does Sunday night Ping Pong Tournaments. So very proud of him for getting so involved in church and his youth group.
Noah had to have ear surgery and will not be able to finish out his freshman year of wrestling. What a heartbreak for him and for my dad. Noah was doing so well this season with a 22-14 record when it was cut short. 31 stitches out of his ear now and recovering but still upset that he will not be able to wrestle at State with Dan. So his eyes are on next season and making it to State next year.
I am still looking for a job but know that God has great plans for me. I am so thankful that I have the time to spend with my parents to help them around the house. Enjoying the time that I have with them.
