I am so happy to tell you that my Uncle R. made it though surgery and everything went ok. He is home now and will have to take some medicines to help his situation. Other than that what more could you ask for!
Also, Nick's appointment went wonderful too! Dr. Laney told him everything looked fine but he did make him walk on the treadmill just to check and make sure! I have an awesome photo but since I might get killed for posting it, I won't. So for now as long as no other symptoms occur we are in the clear! Thank you LORD!!!!
FYI.....my sister-in-law L. is 6 weeks along and her due date is September 23. Please keep praying your sweet blessings on her. She has started getting sick. Here's hoping that passes quickly!

Family Prayer Requests.......
I feel like I have a ton of prayer requests for my family. I have 5. It seems as though when it rains it pours!
1. Please pray for my hubby! Thursday he woke and wasn't able to breathe deeply and he became a little anxious because of his heart history so he went to the doctor. They ran some tests and told him that he probably had a pulled muscle in his chest, luckily. But, they also did an EKG and thought they heard a skip in the beats. Hoping that it is just a glitch, they wanted him to make an appointment with his cardiologist. So we go to the heart doctor Monday afternoon. Please pray that it is nothing!
2. My Uncle R. also went to the cardiologist, Nick's doctor too, last Monday. He will have to have a stent put in. His surgery will be on Tuesday at 6 AM. It is a day surgery so WHEN all goes well he will come home that day! Please pray that this goes well also!
3. My Uncle Q. has a blood clot in his leg. He has been taking some medication that we hope will solve that problem! Please pray that it does and that nothing else will need to be done there!
4. My Mom hurt her back last Sunday. She has had quite the time with it. Please pray that she get better soon!
5. My sister-in-law L. is pregnant. Please pray wonderful blessings over this child and mother. Please pray that she does not have any problems what-so-ever! I wish a pregnancy like mine on her! :P
I also have one other request that is not from my family. It seems as though I keep finding blogs that touch my heart and I have found another! What a blessing this one is to me! Please go visit Kelly at Kelly's Corner and read about Baby Harper!

Thank You! G.W.B.
Thank you President Bush for all of your hard work! Thank you for holding fast to your faith in Christ Jesus! Thank you for keeping our country safe! It's hard to believe that 8 short years ago you were the first president I got to vote for! I will never forget that moment! I was so thrilled to even get to vote! Not many people give you the credit you deserve but I think that our country is better off now having had you as president!
As we close the chapter on your presidency, I just want to say that you did an excellent job at the world's hardest job! And we pray for the new administration and that the Lord will burden their hearts and help them to make the right decisions!
Even though I love history and look back at all the great men who held this great office, you, GWB, will always be MY president!
Sniff, Sniff.............
