Just a little update!

Hello, I just thought I would do a little update.  Things are going okay here, just getting through one day at a time and trying to not get to down.  I do have a little good news to post.  My oldest daughter is engaged, and I like her fiancée!  His name is Matthew Sage Alsup, and he is a real nice guy.  His family is great too, I like them all.  He got his whole family together and me too, and asked her to marry him in front of the bonfire that we were all sitting around and it was just so sweet.  Everyone knew what was going to happen except Becky, though I think she had her suspicions.  They are planning for October 31, 2010, yes that will be Halloween.  They both love Halloween and going to costume parties and stuff, so their reception might even be a costume party.  It will be wonderful no matter what.  It does my heart good to see her so happy.  It has been a while since I have seen her smile so much!  I will try to post some pictures I took of them soon.

Friday will be hard for me, so please be praying for me to have the strength to deal with it and keep on keeping on.  It would have been John’s 14TH birthday had he not passed away.  I find myself wondering what his interests would be and how he would be doing in school and stuff.  It is hard sometimes to see kids that he would be in school with, or that he called his friends.  Love you kids and let them know how much you care while you can, because you never know what tomorrow will bring.  You never know if you will be able to tell them tomorrow or the next day, so don’t put it off until some other time.

Well, that about does it for now,

May God bless you all!

Okay, so it has been a while. Sorry :-(

Okay, so I have been a bad girl and not updated my blog in a while.  I am sorry if I worried anyone, I just don’t like this time of year much and I didn’t want to complain and be whinny.  So, what has been going on.  Let’s start with the bathroom.  The bathroom is almost done.  My husband just has to build the vanity for the sink and get it installed and it will be done.  Here are some pictures of how it looks so far.

This is the  makeup vanity that used to be my Grandmothers, and the  tub/shower.  What do you think of the color of the walls?

     

This shot doesn’t need any explaining but it really shows the floor and wall color.

And this is the beautiful  linen cupboard that my husband built for the bathroom.  He is so talented, at least I think so.  My husband and his friend did the whole remodel and I am loving it. 

Other than this, it has been about the same.  The only excitement is that B.J. now has her drivers permit, and is learning to drive.  Can we say more gray hairs are coming?  I am proud of her, but it is scary too.  My baby is growing up.

September is a hard month for me to say the least.  John would have been 14 this month, on the 25TH.  I keep looking at kids at church that are about his age and wonder exactly what John would be like and what he would be doing had he lived through his FA and BMT.  I know he is in a better place, but that still doesn’t fill the empty place in my heart.  I miss him so much. 

So that about does it for this post, I hope all is well with everyone out there in blog land.

May God bless you each and everyone,

Judy
