Hello out there in computer land. It's been a busy several days for sure. The funeral went as well as a funeral could go. Carlos and Deborah got here safely yesterday. We've been busy already. We went to supper last night to celebrate Carlos' birthday and we had a fun time. He looked cute on the saddle singing his napkin over his head! Took the kids to see Santa today. Zachary was so excited to see him and Sadie could care less. They took a great picture though. Caleb and Caitlyn will be here in a little bit and we'll go back to see Santa after all 4 kids are together. Not much else is going on so I'll go for now.

Dear Friends and Family, I just got back from Phoenix visiting my aunt and cousins. I had so much fun!! When I get time to put the pictures on the computer, I will so you can see the beautiful mountains. I helped my cousin put up her Christmas lights. They turned out beautiful. I'm sorry to say that I lost my friend that I've known since about 5th grade. She had cancer. I hate this disease!! Her funeral is tomorrow. I was with her mom this evening for the viewing. I'm speaking tomorrow during the funeral for several that can't be there. They wrote out what they wanted to say about Patti. It's rainy and cold and poor Carlos and Deborah may freeze!! Well, I'm going to go to bed as I'm exhausted!!! My love to you all.

Gee, I can't believe how long since I've written here!!!! Time has flown for me for sure. The month of October went by so fast, I didn't have time to blink. I was with Larry for a few weeks while he had his open heart surgery and then Kimberly and the kids and I took a few days and went, where did we go? San Antonio, that's right. forgot for a minute. I've done a lot of traveling in the last couple of months. I'm excited though because on Wed., I'm going to Phoenix to be with my cousins and my last remaining aunt for a few days. They lost a member of their family-my cousin David and I couldn't be there for his memorial service so I'm going to spend time with them. I know they hurt and maybe God will allow me to ease their burden a little for a few short days. I'm praying that way anyway. One year ago this time, I had been in the hospital and had no hair! Praise Jesus and what a difference a year makes. I have a scan within the next 3 weeks and we'll see if we stop Herceptin and "declare victory" as my Dr. says. Be glad when it's done. I'm battling another sinus infection right now. I hate these things. Cough cough. We're excited because the kids will be down here for all of Christmas/New Year's break!!! Christopher's kids!! Zachary and Sadie are growing so much. Sadie has 6 teeth and is beginning to crawl on hands and knees. She's been 'army crawling' for about a month now. She's such a sweet baby. I'll have to include a picture of her and I and she's wearing one of my baby dresses. It's such a sweet picture. I really love it. Beginning to get Christmas shopping done. Not doing much this year because of economy but will do some anyway. The true meaning of Christmas is Chris so will concentrate on Him. Well, I'm going to try and go back to sleep for the rest of the night. God Bless and have a great week.

This picture was made before the kids had to go back to Maryland. Miss those babies so much. Such sweetheart's!!
This is Sadie's Dr., Dr. Eastman. I worked for him many years ago and he was both Christopher and Kimberly's Dr. The kids really do like him a lot and he's so good with the kids.

Hello to everyone. Such a busy week or so but it's been great. Bryan and I went to East Texas for a few days and it was really fun. We had a nice time at the condo. Kimberly and the kids came down for a couple of days and we had fun. I have my Herceptin this week so it should be an interesting week. I think I see Dr. Brook's also. There's a lot going on for the next few weeks so I'm not sure how much I'll be online. My brother is having open heart surgery in Houston on October 3rd so I'd appreciate prayers for him. He's a believer so it's a win-win situation for him. I'll just be glad when it's all over.
Sadie has 2 teeth now. She's 6 months old and really setting up pretty well. She LOVES to eat-not baby food especially but real food!! She says, 'ummmmm' with a new food and smacks her little lips. She's such a cutie. She REALLY loves to drink from a straw and a cup also. She's growing like a weed also. I'll see if I can put a few pictures on this blog. I know I can, just have to do it. I hope you all have a great weekend.

Good morning to all of my friends and family. I'm doing awesome today. It's a gorgeous day out there. It's COOL!!!! Zachary spent the night last night. He asks quite frequently to stay. We enjoy him so much. One of these days, Sadie, will be old enough to stay. Just wish Caleb and Caitlyn were here to stay also!!! We miss those babies so much. Not much is going on right now. Just enjoying the cool weather. Speaking of Sadie a minute ago, she is cutting her first 2 bottom teeth!! One minute they weren't there, and the next minute there they are. Hard to believe she's already 6 months old. She's setting up also! I need to have some pictures of her made. I found one of my baby pictures and also the dress I was wearing at the time so I'm going to put her in the dress and have pictures made! Well, I'll close for now so take care and God Bless.
I have some prayer requests.

1st-one of Caleb and Caitlyn's relatives has stage 4 breast cancer. They found it after she had a baby. She's in Houston right now. I'll try to keep you posted. I hope she TRULY knows Jesus in her heart also.
2. My friend Patti has bone cancer now. Had breast cancer with a double mastectomy about 8 years ago.
3.My friend Rita also has breast cancer that has spread to other areas.
4. Me-seeing all of this is so scary to me but I KNOW Who is walking with me on this road. I pray He gives me continued good health in order to do His will.

Thanks so much and have an awesome day.

Friday, September 02, 2011

Good morning to all!!! I am doing just awesome this morning!! I slept well last night as I didn't sleep well for several nights with being gone. Home now for awhile but back to Houston I go in October to be with my brother. We so miss the kids. They haven't been allowed to talk to their daddy in a week. What's wrong with THAT picture?? Can you say "go back to court"? Anyway, I won't let anything stand in my way of happiness with my Lord and Savior. satan can try to do all he wants but, he's NOT defeating me or any of my family. Chrissy got engaged last week and we're so thrilled. The kids really like Staci and in fact, they were talking to Poppy while Christopher was out on the field proposing. It was a neat proposal. I know it's on you tube and I'll try to find it for you all. I can maybe send the link anyway. Today is Sadie's 6 month check-up!!! I can't believe it. She's trying her best to sit up and she does but will topple over. She can gum some table food and loves it. She's still nursing so yesterday, we kept her for a little bit while her mommy did some errands. It was fun. http://youtu.be/A8UZdZUm5-A I hope is the right way to do it. Try it out anyway. Have to run so you all have a great day!!!!

Hello everyone, the kids had to go back to Maryland on Saturday. The child exchange went well but of course Christopher had protection this time. Thank you Maryland State Police. We had such a great time with them this summer. They are so sweet and we love them so much. I just took the day off sort of. Did some laundry, prayer time, and just rested. Kimberly wants us to eat supper with her and the kids tonight at Cotton Patch Cafe so we'll meet her in a little bit. Not much else going on at this time-I'm doing well. My scans were good and my Herceptin continues for awhile. I don't know when it will quit either so that's good. I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll be more faithful to write more often.
I do have something new. Sadie is drinking from a straw now and is only 5 1/2 months old. I'm so proud of her. Little sugarfoot girl. I'll post a picture of her taking my straw and not letting go of it!!

Monday, August 08, 2011

Boy how the time has flown by!!!! I last wrote in July and now it's August 8th. Let's see, from the last time I wrote I've traveled about 3000 miles!!!! We went to Chicago-driving !!! Kimberly, Zachary, Sadie, Caleb, Caitlyn, Clayton-my brother, Freddie-caregiver, and me. Bryan flew up a few days later. Everyone was SOOOO good!!! We had a great time and the kids got to meet all their cousins that they had never met before. They had such a great time catching frogs, chasing animals, etc. My brother has a pond and 8 1/2 acres and I think they covered most of it in the days that we were there. I got back from Chicago, and then left for New Orleans to be with my brother for an angiogram. It went well and we will probably only have a minimally invasive heart procedure. Praise the Lord. Got back on Sunday night and left Monday morning for Texoma to be with some friends at their timeshare for a few days. We also went up to Turner Falls for the day. I'm going to try and go back one more time before the kids go back. They really had a great time. I have my next PET scan on Wed. and will have the results by next Tuesday. Then I have my mammogram and visit with my breast surgeon. I'm wondering about where we go from here as far as my treatments go. I feel the PET is clear and clean, I'm just curious about what we do from here-if anything. I'm so loving my new church. Our VBS was totally wonderful. I'd LOVE to have you visit my church even by internet. The site is www.cbclucas.org. We have a video ministry and you can sign up for free and watch our sermons online. We have people from all over the world that watch. Even soldiers in Afganistan, Iraq, etc. Check it out. I'm going to go-oh by the way-pray for my PET scan please, results and then also remember our doggie, Duchess. She again has more cancer that is going to be removed Friday. She got groomed today by a friend that is just getting into the trade and she did an incredible job!!!! Thank you so much Helen. If your dog needs grooming, let me know and I'll pass on her phone number. Love ya'll!!!

Hello everyone, Kimberly wanted me to tell you the story behind the Butterfield Overland Mail. I was 7-8 years of age when we celebrated the 100 anniversary of the Butterfield Overland Mail that traveled from Tipton, MO. to San Francisco, CA. My dad was an airline pilot and when he would fly from Tulsa, where we were based to El Paso or onto California, he always noticed ruts in the ground out around the Guadalupe Mountains out toward El Paso. In doing so history, which he LOVED, he discovered that that had been a mail/passenger route used by stagecoaches "back in the old days." He got in touch with many people and together they set up a plan to travel the old route of the stagecoaches. It took several years to put together including obtaining a stage, horses, cowboys, etc. Many cities and towns along the route had huge big parades, parties, barbecues, etc to help in celebrating the 100th birthday of the stage line. Anyway, my dad was instrumental along with American Airlines-who he worked for, the Boy Scouts of America, and of course the National Park Service along with the post office to erect a monument in honor of the pioneer pilots and the Butterfield Overland Mail out at the Guadalupe Moutains, where the Piney Woods station had been. You can still see the remnants of the station there. Anyway, my brother's, dad and others were the first to put a small monument on the saddle of the mountains and then later a helicopter placed the 6 foot stainless steel monument that is still standing. In fact, if you climb to the saddle of the mountains, you can still see the monument, sign the registry, etc. I would LOVE to climb it, but I have bad knees and I'm unable to do it. 2 of my 3 brother's have climbed it in the last several years. It means a lot to our family, and if you go there and want information from them, all you need is an okay from me and some numbers, that you must give them. Anyway, I'll add a picture of my grand kids on a stage and look for some others that I can post for you. Have a great day.

Monday, June 27, 2011

These are just a few of the pictures that were taken!!! I had so much fun!!! Thank you everyone.



Here are some birthday pictures!! Enjoy.

Saturday, June 25, 2011

Happy Birthday to me!!!!! I can't believe I'm 60 years old today!! Doesn't seem possible. What a way to celebrate though today. I have my grandchildren-all of them with me, my family, friends. What an awesome day. I'm doing well, hair is growing so much. It's greyish or silver color is beautiful!!!! I feel great. Next week, we're taking another vacation. We're going back to the Hill Country with Christopher, Caleb, Caitlyn, me, Staci and her daughter Vicktoria. Caitlyn has already asked to sleep in the same room with Vicktoria so poor Staci get's me!!!! We both snore so we'll see who wins out. Ha ha. We're going to go toobing in the San Marcus River, see the bats flying, see the capitol, and a bunch of other stuff. There is so much to see and do and learn about Texas!! Do you know, those of you not from Texas, that we have dessert, mountains, tree's, all kinds of terrain here in our great state!! Well, thank you Jesus for allowing me to have such an awesome life. I give You praise and Glory because You alone are my creator and my God. Have a great week.

Monday, June 13, 2011

Hello to everyone!!! Bryan and I just got back from the Hill Country where we really enjoyed ourselves down there. We have a timeshare and it's fun. We had some friends to meet us down there for a day or 2 and we REALLY enjoyed them!!!!! We're looking forward to Caleb and Caitlyn getting here for most of the summer. They are here for 2 months and boy, does the time fly!!!!!! We have several things planned so far and we'll have a lot more to do than before. Rodeo's, and oh my goodness, so much more!!!! I hope you all have a blessed summer if I don't get a chance to get back on here for awhile. I'm doing well though. I had my Herceptin today and also a echocardiogram to make sure I'm doing well, heartwise. Well, off to bed sleepy head!!!

Thursday, June 02, 2011

Boy, I've been neglectful in not writing to you all!! I'm so sorry. Just been busy. We are having a great spring, summer so far. Christopher's kids will be here in 2 weeks!! Can't wait. Sadie will be 3 months in 2 days!!! Growing too fast. Zachary is excited to see his cousins for the summer. We have several things planned while they are here. We are all doing well. Took my brother to Galveston last month and he really enjoyed that. We rode the ferry, walked on the beach, ate at his favorite places, etc. It was a good trip. I'd let you know what all we're doing this summer but don't want to divulge everything in case weird- o's are reading. Don't want you to know when or where. Anyway, I'll post pictures after they get here and the fun begins!!!

Caitlyn and Sadie together!!
Sadie in her pretty in pink.
Sleeping beauty
Zachary helping me plant tomatoes
Friends, Romans, Countrymen!!! How are you all doing?? I hope well. I'm doing great. Part of the reason I'm writing is to show you all some pictures that we had made in the last few weeks. We had such a good time with the kids and we're looking forward to the summer. Zachary is so excited about the time he will spend with them. I ran out of room to put more, so I'll just add more.

Caitlyn, writing my name on a balloon at the Cancer program with her daddy.

The official "invitation" to the game!!
Hi everyone. I hope this finds you all doing well. I'm doing great!!! I had my visit with oncologist today and the Herceptin and then also to the gynecologist oncology Dr. So much fun!!! Everyone says I'm doing well. I believe them. I wanted you all to see some additional pictures that have been made recently at the Allen Wrangler football game. It was so neat and all the staff are such nice people. It's cold and rainy here and this will probably be our last cool weather until this fall!! It's May and should begin to warm up!! Oh me. Anyway, I also want to invite you all to the Allen Wrangler game on May 21st at 7pm. If you will buy $15.00 tickets, then they will donate $5.00 to our Relay for Life team. That is so cool. I hope you can come. Indoor arena football was very exciting to me. You have to say my name though-Marsha Johnson, if you can't remember! hahaha. Hope you all have an awesome day.

Oh man!!! Did we have a terrific Easter time with Caleb and Caitlyn!!!! We celebrated birthdays, hunted Easter eggs, went to an Allen Wrangler football game where I was the honorary captain, spoke at a cancer survivor balloon liftoff and celebrated Easter Sunday with church!!! We pack so much into our short days with the kids. We had such a wonderful time with them. Their time here is always too short. Some day though, maybe they'll be here longer. We are already looking forward to summer. I will enclose some pictures on this. I got to meet Drew Pearson also. He was a professional football player with the Dallas Cowboys back in the good ole days. I even got to put on his Super Bowl ring. Thank you to the Wranglers for such an exciting time with you all. All the players were so sweet to me. I got hugs from them and congratulations and God Blesses for being a survivor. It was wonderful. Zachary had such a good time playing with Caleb and Caitlyn. They couldn't believe little Sadie either!!! They are such special children-all of them. I hope you have a wonderful day. I smell my brownies cooking for the Wranglers so will go. Love ya.

Tuesday, April 19, 2011

Christopher is having a wonderful time in Maryland with the kids!! Praise the Lord. He's been able to go to Caleb's ballgames. Caleb asked him to go and Christopher was thrilled. Caitlyn said that she can't wait to get to Big D so Grammy can wash her hair in the kitchen sink. She's so precious in our sight!!! Caleb REALLY wanted to be in Dallas instead of Maryland for the 3 extra days but that's okay. Some day he'll understand. We're going Easter dress shopping on Friday morning as we have a birthday party that evening for Zachary and then on Saturday, we have birthday parties for Christopher, Caleb, Caitlyn, Staci so we'll be busy!!! On Sunday, it's Easter Sunday praise and thank you Jesus!!!!! Such an exciting time. We get to take the kids to an indoor football game in Allen on Saturday where they are doing a survivor event that evening and I've been asked to speak. I've been studying on a verse that my pastor gave to me. It's 2 Sam. 23:2, which reads, "The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me, and His word was on my tongue. " I want His Light to shine through whatever He lays on my heart to say. I would appreciate your prayers. Love to all!!!!

Friday, April 15, 2011

God truly works miracles!!!! Christopher is going to get his kids for the Easter break. We are all very excited that he is going to spend 3 days with them in Maryland. He's going to school with each of them and get to meet their teachers, and everyone that works with Caleb and Caitlyn. Thank you Jesus for this and we so appreciate the fact they are coming to be with us over Jesus Christ's rising from the grave!!!!!!!! AMEN!!! Have a blessed day.
Good morning world. I'm doing great and wonderful and so is my family. Christopher is looking forward to getting the kids and spending quality time with them and we're excited about them coming. So many activites for them once they get here!! Birthday parties, football games, Easter, shopping with Caitlyn for an Easter dress. We love those kids so much and can't wait to love on them. Thank You Jesus for giving us Caleb and Caitlyn!! I hope you all have a wonderful day today and write more later.

Thursday, April 14, 2011

Hey everyone. I hope this finds you all doing well. I know I am!!! I'm so blessed!!! Sadie did well on her check up today. She weighed in at 7-13 1/2 so we're excited for that. She didn't need blood this week but will next week. That will be another long day for sure. We are also excited because Caleb and Caitlyn are coming soon-like next Monday. Praise His Holy Name. Zachary can't wait to see them. I tell him everyday that they are coming. Needless to say, we're all excited about it. I've been asked to take part in a cancer survivor program next week being done by the new Allen Wrangler indoor football team!!! I'm speaking so that's scary but I'm asking God to put the words into my mouth that He wants me to share with others. It should be a neat evening!!!. We're also getting ready for Relay for Life in Allen. We have a big team from church and have raised a lot of money so far. It's exciting. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and get out and enjoy the spring weather. Love ya.!!!! Marsha

Monday, April 11, 2011

Hello to everyone this beautiful spring morning!!! What a glorious day it is. I have my Herceptin today so will be excited to see my friends at Medical City. Then I'm going to play photographer for Kimberly and Les and take pictures of them in the bluebonnets. It should be a fun day. I'm excited. We, as a family, are so excited also because Caleb and Caitlyn will be here in only 1 week!!!! So much fun. I know they are excited because they will get to meet Miss Sadie Jewell and Zachary always looks at pictures of them and gets so excited so we will have a wonderful time!!! Praise the Lord. Spring is so much fun around here in Texas. I hope you all have a wonderful day also and enjoy the wonderful weather. God Bless and remember He Is Risen!!

Tuesday, April 05, 2011




Boy is it beautiful outside!!! Awesome. I just wanted to put a couple of pictures on here so you can see Sadie. She was 1 month old yesterday. Doesn't seem possible. Can't wait for Caleb and Caitlyn to get here so we'll have MORE pictures of all 4 of the grandkids. You know we are ALL ABOUT grandchildren in our house!!! I hope you enjoy yours if they are close to you in distance. If not, I pray for you because I know how it feels for them to be far away. I love them so much. Have a blessed day.

Sunday, April 03, 2011


Good morning everyone. It's a beautiful Sunday morning and we're getting ready for Sunday School and church. I just wanted to put a picture on here of me with 2 of the grandchildren. Soon, I'll have pictures with all 4 of them!!! Praise the Lord. I'm feeling so good, I'm so blessed by my Lord-Jesus Christ!! I'm so happy to be a testimony for Him. Today is the 1st day of the rest of your life! Remember to include Jesus in there. God Bless You all!!! Love ya Marsha

Thursday, March 31, 2011

Good morning to everyone. I should have stopped to read what I had written since I haven't written in awhile. Kimberly and Sadie are doing so good!!! So proud of both of them. Sadie has actually gone a 4 hour stretch-only once but there's hope!!! hahaha. She went to church for the first time tonight to a Wed. night service. She slept pretty much through it. I am so excited that Caleb and Caitlyn will be coming over Easter-can't wait to see them. We all miss them so much. Zachary thinks of them a lot and squeals for joy when he see's their pictures or hears their voices either on a video or on the phone. Les and Kimberly are also getting moved into their new house. Everyone is settling in nicely. Christopher is doing well. His job is the same-he doesn't like have to try and get blood out of a turnip but so many people live above their means. It's not his fault they can't pay their bills. He and Staci are doing well with their relationship. I"m glad they are taking their time getting to know each other. Bryan and I are doing well. We want to take a few days away-don't know what to do but I'm sure we'll think of something. Well, you all have a blessed week and I'll keep you updated. By the way, I'm walking for Relay for Life this year in Allen with our team from church. If you want to donate to our team, go to Relay for Life in Allen TX and look up Team Cornerstone and you'll find my name. God Bless Everyone.

Saturday, March 19, 2011

Good morning to everyone!!! We are doing great!!! Baby Sadie is growing up already. She's 2 weeks old by now and did well at her Dr. appt yesterday. She had gained 4 oz in 4 days. Zachary is doing so well with her. I'll check on Kimberly's computer and see if we have anymore pictures. I don't have my computer here so I don't have the pictures off my camera. I have several on my phone but I don't have them on my computer. I'm feeling well, I see my oncologist on Monday for my check-up and also Herceptin. My hair is growing back fairly quickly. Excited about that for sure. Sadie's hair is longer than mine!!! She looks cuter in the hairbows then I do. Oh well, that's okay. We can't wait to see Caleb and Caitlyn next month. We get to have them in April for a week so we're excited. They called yesterday and we got to talk to them for awhile yesterday. Today we're going out to Kimberly's new house to help fix it all up. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!

Friday, March 11, 2011




Good early morning to everyone. Boy it's early and I'm awake with Kimberly while she feeds a little. We are so blessed to have her. I'm not going to write much as it's 2:30 and she's almost finished eating but I wanted you to see her. She weighed 6 lbs 13 ounces, 19 1/4 inches long and was born on March 4th at 7:59 AM. Again, we are blessed. She has more hair than her Grammy does! haha. I'll write again more later. Love you all.

Wednesday, February 23, 2011


Good morning to all!!! I'm absolutely grand today. God is so good. I had such a great time yesterday with a "pink party" given in my honor by Chick-fil-a. Talk about a SHOCK!!!! I was stunned to walk in and there was cow with a pink "necklace" of tulle and balloons and friends!!! Here is one of the pictures with cow. Loved it. I appreciate all the hard work. Kimberly and a wonderful friend Christy Oakes, that works for Chick-fil-a put this party together. It was such a honor and SOOOOOO neat!!!! Today is Kimberly's 37 week check-up. I'm all in pink also for the day. I LOVE pink and purple. They are my new favorite colors. So excited to meet Miss C. I dreamed about her last night!!! She had long blonde hair, was a big girl and long. It was a neat dream. Zachary has named me Mimi instead of Grammy. I'll ask the kids-Caleb and Caitlyn if they want to stay with Mimi that Zachary named me or continue with Grammy. It doesn't bother me either way. I love ALL my grandchildren!!! Miss them so much. Well gotta go, Kimberly will be here in a minute.

Monday, February 21, 2011

Hello everyone. I'm so sorry I haven't written in awhile but have been busy!!! Yeah!!!! I had my PET scan a few weeks ago and it was cancer-free so I'm praising the Lord for that. I went to Florida for 10 days to celebrate with my brother's. We had a lot of fun together. I'm back now awaiting a birth of a little girl. Should be within the next 2 weeks. Kimberly and Les will be closing on their new house hopefully on Monday. They are excited about it and so are we. I don't have any new pictures because I haven't unloaded the camera yet from the trip. I will soon. Not much else new going on but wanted to jot a note on my blog before everyone thought I'd never do it again. Have a great week.

Friday, January 28, 2011


A wonderful day today!!! I love Texas weather-in the fall, winter, spring. I HATE the summers though!!! It's supposed to be in the 70's today!!! Praise the Lord. It will be beautiful outside. I will be out rejoicing and maybe work on a little sunshine for the ole head. I'm wondering if I'll have gray hair, dishwater blonde again? curly? straight? I'm excited to see what the Lord gives me hair wise!!! My PET scan was clear so that's such a praise. I have a new picture of our little granddaughter. She was about 31 weeks along at the time this was made. The 3-D sonograms are so neat!!! Kimberly is doing so well with this pregnancy. She's not having any of the problems she had with the Z-man and we're so thankful for that. She looks healthier than he did at this time so we're praying she doesn't have the blood trait that Les' family has. Still no name for her yet-they are still discussing the possibilities. I know I will love it no matter what it is. Zachary has named me-different from Grammy. I'm Mi-Mi to him. I'll be like "flower" in Bambi-"He can call me flower if he wants to". I hope you have a blessed day.

Friday, January 21, 2011

Good evening everyone. Sorry it's been so long. Kimberly, Zachary, and I went out of town for several days. We had such a good time. We went to Galveston and just enjoyed ourselves. Didn't really do much but we had fun. Zachary had the best time himself!! It would be so much fun to take Caleb and Caitlyn down there!!! I think they would enjoy it. Can't wait to see them at Easter time. We all miss them so much. Well, I'm a little tired and going to get ready for bed so talk to you soon!!!

Monday, January 10, 2011

Hello everyone, We've had such beautiful days lately!! We got snow yesterday to the tune of about 5 inches! So pretty to watch it falling, silently, beautiful!! This morning it was so nice to sit in the plant room and enjoy the silence of the road and to watch the bluejays and cardinals eating. We still have snow today which has melted some but at least the roads are clear and it's still so pretty out!!! I just love it. I had a great cardiologist visit this morning. Dr. Hollowell is so nice and such a compassionate Dr. He said I was doing as well as could be expected with what all I've been through over the last 5-6 months. I see Dr. Brook's this week (Friday) and he's going to order the PET scan. I'm happy. We get to see Miss Baby C tomorrow and Thursday. Kimberly has Dr. appts and they will be doing 3-D pics tomorrow and then our "fun" 3-D pics on Thursday. I'll post pictures of the snow, the baby, Christmas, etc later. Love you all and have a blessed day.

Wednesday, January 05, 2011

Gosh, I can't believe it's been so long since I blogged on this!!! Sorry everyone. I don't even know if you all know that I ended up only having 5 treatments because of a reaction to some of the chemo. I see the Dr. next week and I REALLY want to have the PET scan done!!! We had a good Christmas even though we didn't have Christmas until the 30th because we couldn't get Christopher's kids here any sooner! We only got to visit with them for 2 1/2 days but that was better than nothing. We did a lot in a short amount of time! They are so precious and Zachary had such a good time with them. They couldn't believe how he was talking and making noises of animals, etc. We had a great time. I know I told you all months ago that we had joined a new church. I feel like a new christian there because I'm learning so much that I never knew before. I could give you so many examples if you want them. Our pastor is so spirit filled. It's such a blessing!!! I have such a loving church family and I thank God everyday for sending us to the new church. Well, gonna go for now so take time and leave some comments if you want.
