This is the first picture William has sent to us from this cruise. We miss him alot. We just finished up NFL JPD camp and now we are in the last 3 weeks of regular season football. Then on to summer and a much needed break for the family. I also bought new bunk beds for the girls and they are really nice and it makes their room look great and so much more organized. Well thats all I got for now..........

Busy, Busy...............

Well as we headline into week 4, the kids and I are extremely busy. The boys have football camp for 2 weeks and that has been late evenings. Bailey has soccer too but a friend of mine and her husbnad have been taking her to her games for me which have been a big help since I have to be where the boys are to coach. I have talked to William several times and that has been nice. Not much else is happening for us. I did go and buy new bunk beds for the girls because the beds they have just are not good in the room they have. I have not had any time to myself but thats ok. I have things around the house pretty set except my room as usual. I will work on that after may 19th when football and soccer are over. Thats all I got for now.......bye

Week 1 gone bye bye!!!!!!!!!!!

We survived!!!!!!!!!!!!! just kidding. We are all doing well. I found out on Friday that I am officially a diabetic and I now have to take Glucophage once a day and check my blood sugar once a week. My levels are not extremely bad so I am on the lowest dose. The kids and I had our usual week, practices, games etc. The boys won their game and Bailey had 1 win and 1 loss. Friday night we went to a christian concert given by The Rock Church. It was awesome. The Lord made his presence known and then on Sunday we went to their church service.

It was funny because I think most people went because Ladanian Tomlinson from the Chargers was going to be there. However when he gave his testimony and then left off stage, people stayed. They listened attentively at the message and at the end when the offer of salvation came, tons of people went down. This was not about membership but about Salvation. It was amazing. The funny part is that Keanu thinks that it was revelation for his life. LT said that when he was about 11yo he was playing pop warner football and a bee got in his helmet and stung him and he was out of the game for the rest of the game. Well ironically on thursday Keanu had a bee get stuck in his shoe at practice and it stung him 3 times. He told me see mom, I will be in the NFL. I thought that was hilarious. We were supposed to over Rod and S'te's but by the time I got home and sat down, that was all she wrote. Anyhow, the kids are back at school and the little girls are in intersession and have 6 to 6 program. So we are on our last little trail to summer break. That's it for now.

God's Peace

HI GUYS! I HAVE PEACE. COMPLETE PEACE IN GOD. BEFORE WILLIAM LEFT I STARTED READING A BOOK CALLED, "THE TUB IS OVERFLOWING BUT I FEEL DRAINED". NOT THAT I FELT THAT WAY 100% BUT IT HAS QUESTIONS AND SCRIPTURE TO HELP YOU IN A TIME OF NEED. WELL I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT I CANNOT PLEASE MY NEIGHBORS, CO-WORKERS AND FAMILY ALL THE TIME. I CANNOT LET THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD BOTHER ME. I FEEL GREAT AND MY KIDS ARE GREAT. LIFE IS GOOD. I FOUND OUT YESTERDAY THAT I AM NOW A DIABETIC. I WILL HAVE TO TAKE MEDS FOR A WHILE BUT WITH PROPER DIET AND EXERCISE I CAN PROBABLY GET OFF WITH IN A YEAR. THE KIDS AND I ARE GOING TO A CHRISTAIN CONCERT AT SDSU TONIGHT. I HAVE NOT TOLD THEM ALL OF WHAT WE ARE DOING, I JUST TOLD THEM TO BE READY. I TALKED TO WILLIAM THIS MORNING AND HE SOUNDS GOOD. HE SAYS HE'S "BULKING UP". I AM GLAD HE HAS FOUND SOMETHING TO KEEP HIM BUSY ON BOARD SHIP. I ALSO GOT AN EMAIL FROM THE CHAPLAINS WIFE ABOUT THE FAMILY GROUP. ALTHOUGH I CANNOT MAKE IT TO THE MEETINGS I DID OFFER MY HELP. THEY SEEM TO BE ROCKIN' AND ROLLIN' ON THE PLANS FOR THE HALFWAY AND HOMECOMING. HOPEFULLY I WILL GET A NEW CAMERA SOON SO I CAN PHOTOGRAPH THIS SHORESIDE WES PAC THAT ME AND THE KIDS ARE ON. WELL GOTTA GO...................

My Sad Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it's day 1! William left yesterday. I cried a little but when we got on the boat and waited around. Then it was time for the visitors to get off the boat. We went down and he stayed for a little bit longer. Then He had to go back. I was ok and then they started the engine and the whistle blew. They began to sail away. I cried my little heart out. I couldn't even stay until they went under the bridge. Afterwards Granpa James took us to breakfast and he needed to do some shopping. Once we got home I had a horrible headache and laid down for a nap. When I go up the boys and Gpa James had cleaned out and washed my car. That made me happy. I sepnt my first night on the couch. I just coul not bring myself to get in that bed, not yet anyway. Well that's all for now.
