Bad News

I have a cold!! A horrid cold that has kept me awake most of the night, and makes me feel miserable during the day. What else am I to say? Nothing, the plain fact is I'm sick. Oh well, I just hope baby Isaac doesn't catch it!
Hope you all are better then I am at the moment,

News

Blessings on this fine day! Here are some pics of the baptism of Isaac, and our family with our friends the Majors and Father Francis.

And here is a letter to our old friends back in Oregon.

Dear Ace Students,
Oh how our family journey has been! Our way has been long, but very blessed. On April 18 we welcomed baby Isaac into our family. He was 10 lbs 9.5 ozs. He is now a month old, and doing great. So far we have been down to Abbeville, Louisiana once, to see what it was like and meet every one down there. It was a lot of fun, and it confirmed our feeling that we were called to missions. We spent time in prayer and community with the many missionaries that were with us.
We got back on May 11th to get ready for our grandparents who were traveling from Oregon. The Sunday after they arrived we celebrated little Isaac’s baptism and Rachel’s first communion. As of now we are waiting for when we feel its time to back to Louisiana. So as we wait we spend time working and living as a family.

AH!!

Yes, I know, I know, this time I promise I will announce winners, I just have to make it a little longer. June 1st. I really am sorry, its just we may have to leave, any day!
Also I would like to post about something I am going to try and do.
Check this out! Cool huh, a writing challenge!!!! Please join if you like to write!
Blessings,
Lizzy

Is today the 17th?

"Cause if it is I am SO sorry! I will not be able to announce winners today. I'm going to change the day to the 24th. Again I am so sorry!!!! I have been so busy......
P.S. Thanks to my cousin for reminding me.
Blessings,
Lizzy

Grandparents

Another piece of happy news is that my grandparents from Oregon are here to stay four days with us! They first went to see my Aunt Lacey who is a nun in St. Louis, MO. We went to the airport around 10:00 to pick them up. Now they are here at our house. Needless to say today has been wonderful!

I hope today is blessed for all of my readers too!

Blessings,

Lizzy

EMMA!!!

Okay right now I am literally jumping up and down with excitement! My Grandmother just bought the 2009 BBC Emma movie!!!! I have been wanting to watch since last year, and now I can.

So cool!

This was just so good I had to post it! I found it on Cassie's blog.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone."
