JANUARY!!!!

We have had alot of things happen to us in the last year. And it doesn't seem to get any easier. Justin and I are still apart and it is very difficult since Justin has had surgery. Jeremy has to commute in alot of snow to school and is very discouraged. The book of James 1st chapter has been very dear to us. Perseverance is not an easy thing to do. Financially I pray God knows best because the separation is not the hardest part. Its only one part. We are seeking God's will and constantly stay in prayer knowing that God knows whats best for us. Then we lost a very dear family member Grandma Florence past away on the 16th of January.. She will be greatly missed. Being truly thankful in tough times is very hard, but doable. Love to all and will post more pics later. It takes to long to upload them. Or I'm impatient.

Sorry this is side wards I forgot to rotate the picture before posting. This is Fort Lewis college in Durango Colorado. Jeremy is going to school there. They received about 2 feet of snow on his first day of school.

Well it has been a while since I have caught up with my blog. People are e-mailing me wanting an up date on this past month. Where to begin. We lost Justin's grandma on January 16th. She had had a stroke just before Christmas. She was never able to talk again and swallowing was very difficult. Ashley,Levi and Lincoln came in on the 6th, Justin had surgery on the 10th. A surgery that was suppose to last 1 1/2 hours took 3. I was just about to get worried. He is still in alot of pain. It was very hard to leave him and come back home to Oregon. Jeremy started school in Durango Co. In a snow storm on his first day that came in very fast and dropped 2 feet of snow. Justin's town only got about 6 inches. I was trying to take Ash and her family up to Farmington, the storm delayed us a day but we finally made it. That was on the 8th. Surgery on the 10th back to Albuquerque on the 12th to take pictures of Great Great grandma Florence. All the great grandmas had a blast meeting Lincoln for the first time. My mom cried at the airport. They left on the 14th we spent 1 more day with grandma florence and she died the following wednesday. She just went to sleep. We went back to Farmington for a doctors appointment. Then back to Albuq. for the funeral then back to Farmington for another doctor appointment and then I went back to Albuquerque to fly home. Its amazing how good God is. We are so blessed. I hated leaving my husband and son. But what a love I have been given. Justin is my life partner and such a blessing from the Lord. He still needs lots of prayer. He will have the pins in his wrist until March. We take the cast off on February 15th and take x-rays. If it is fussing well we will put a splint on it. If not it goes back into a cast again. I was able to help him at work for a few days where I was literally his right hand. It is very frustrating for him. Please pray that he will slow down and take it easy. Well here are some pics of the past month. Love to all.
