Trip to the cabin...
Every year we go away for the weekend with our dear friends, the Sanchez Family. We had a blast this year at Bass Lake. It snowed and it was beautiful. We are so blessed with the friendship we have with Dave, Sara and their boys Chase and Cooper.
The Sanchez Family
My sweet boys...
Best Buddies, Owen and Chase!
JJ just chillin' watching the big boys.
Me and my daddy.
and me and my mommy!
And there's me, just bundled on the tailgate, watching intently!
Our family, so blessed by the Lord!
Woo-hoo, takin' a ride.
Bundled up so I couldn't move!
Loss Hurts...
Friday, March 5, 2010
It's been a few days, but last weekend my brother lost a friend in a freak snowboarding accident. He was a young man, about 27 years young. I've know him for years because he was a good friend to by brother in high school. It has been a real struggle for me with God, for some reason it has really impacted me and had me at the feet of Jesus for many reasons.... struggling with why, the pain of the family and friends that are left behind...
There's a song that I've been listening a lot to lately and it wasn't until yesterday that I actually sat down and listened word for word and it was good for me to hear, understand, believe...
The King above all kings is coming down
but He won't say the words you wish He would
He don't do the deeds you know that He could
He won't think the thoughts you think that He should
But He is good, He is good.
Regardless of what He does or doesn't do/say/think....He is good. Sometimes it's a choice to believe this even though we don't feel it.
Believing He is good, trusting He is good when circumstances say different...a hard choice but that is walking in faith.
Please pray for the Chance family as they mourn the loss of their son Matt.
Owen turned 5!

We celebrated with a Nascar racing theme with some of his 5 year old buddies......and celebrated with family over dinner at Benihana's (per Owen's request).
Happy Birthday O-Sam!

Owen's glasses! He is only 4 1/2 but something about the little eyewear just makes him seem so grown up. Most of you know, Owen had surgery at age one to correct infantile esotropia. Most of the problem was taken care of but some smaller issues have remained. We met with his surgeon a week ago to set up a second surgery, but after dilating his eyes, she found him to be farsighted and she feels some or most of the remaining issues may clear up with glasses. So here he is, our handsome little boy with his very own handpicked glasses. He is quite proud of them and doesn't mind wearing them.... possibly because the kid is quite farsighted so he can now see sooo much better! Despite the three hour trip to Target today because he "set them down somewhere" we are adjusting.... and yes, after paging all employees, scouring the store, rearranging shelves and laying on the floor to look under shelves, we did find them after the third visit to the lost and found! I was not leaving without these sweet ONE HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLAR glasses! I don't think he will be taking them off any time soon. He has been such a trooper with his eye issues, we are so proud of him!
Belated Halloween Pictures
I finally have a minute to update my blog so here are our family halloween pics. We had a great day, spent it just the four of us. We don't do much on the holiday so we went to church, out to dinner and ice cream and headed home for a scavenger hunt around the house (for tricks and treats) for Owen and Daddy...in the dark...with flashlights...they had a blast! And Joshua Jude just slept through it all...
