Just a recap of events

So, I thought I would bring everyone up to par on our events lately:

Thursday, Jackie went to be with Jesus

Friday, I got Nick and Bubba

Saturday, I took the boys home, ryan got injured, and nana was put in the hospital related to leukemia, a dialysis treatment was done.

Sunday, we went to church and then came home to pack a suitcase and went to Mom's house to help her and pop with pappy.

Monday, nana had another dialysis treatment.

Tuesday, the doc said that if nana didn't have chemo, she wouldn't last two weeks, so she agreed that she needed to try the chemo treatments. She had her first treatment.

Wednesday, more chemo and pneumonia sets in her lungs.

Thursday, arajuana delivers baby isaiah via emergency c section due to him being breech. bronchoscope to biopsy infection n nana's lungs and then she was sedated and placed on the ventelator until they could find out what the infection was to allow her body to try and fight the infection.

Friday, nana went septic. the doc tried talking pop into nr order, but pop won't do it. In a nutshell here is the situation: if they take her off of the chemo, she will die from the cancer, if they continue the chemo, she will die due to the sepsis. Not a good prognosis.

Saturday: I finally came home this morning. I have been going to work from Mom's house and taking care of pappy when I am off of work. I needed a break. So, I played wii with Kenzie and a couple of her friends today. I will post the rest of today in my next post. I did call and check in with Mom about nana and pappy. Pappy went to see her at nine this morning and didn't leave until three this afternoon. Mom reported that he has been crying nonstop. At first, we didn't think that he knew what was going on, but we now know that he understands more than we gave him credit for. Ryan stopped by the hospital and sat with Nana for a lil while. He doesn't want the girls going down there. He said that nana doesn't look good at all.

So, now for putting pics in and that goes with the next post so see u in a minute!

The importance of connections

Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways. Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
