Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to all our families and friends. We wish you safe travels and good weather.

Miss Michaela is doing better, no stomach ache for the last 3 nights. That includes tonight. She is eating a little more. We will wait and see what happens on Wednesday when she goes in for a weight check. Continue to pray for her too put on more weight, so we don't have to do anymore tests or go farther with other things.

Again Happy Thanksgiving!

Love to all.

Prayer request!

Our young lady, Michaela is not been feeling well for a couple of weeks. I finally gave in and we took her into the doctor this afternoon, I know bad mom. They are running some tests, no strep that we know of, no Pneumonia, no sugar in urine or infection. They will run some more test tomorrow so we will see.

The biggest prayer request for her is that she has been losing weight, she has lost 8 pounds since they last saw her in September. She was already down from the Mono earlier in the year. Dr. Friesen was not happy with her. She matter of factly asked her if she was dieting or trying to lose weight. She told her and us NO, she even told me again after we left and when we were in the car. I know she is not eating a lot, but I didn't think is was that bad. She is giving her through Thanksgiving to put on some weight, so in 2 weeks she had better had gained some.

I am at a loss right now. I know there is some friend issues, 7th grade girls can be mean and tough. I did mention that to the Doctor, she wants to rule out the physical things first then we will move on the emotional stuff. Please pray for her to feel better and to eat what she is suppose too, in order to gain some weight. Never thought I would have to force her to eat, guess she doesn't take after me.

Thank you for your prayers, we appreciate them.
Love to all,
Lisa

November already?

Yikes it is, isn't it? I can not believe it, I can say this time change has messed me up. I thought springing forward was bad this is taking a long time to get use too.

We have been busy with work, school, the yard and just hanging out as a family. Michaela and Marcus and I went trick-o-treating around the block, then took Michaela to a friends house for a party. Marcus was content with just handing out candy, when we asked if we could give some of his away, he said NOWAY!

So far we have been pretty healthy. Knock on Wood, Michaela is battling a cough and runny nose right now, and just that overall tiredness. I think since the MONO, she catches things so easy and it wears her down so much faster. Just when you think you have it kicked, something new comes up.

It is that time of year to start thinking Christmas and with Thanksgiving coming, we need to get the kids Christmas drawing things ready. I have them done, just have not sent them out yet. I can't believe it is that time already.

Not sure what is going on for the Holidays yet. Got time to decide that.

I'm thinking if it is nice tomorrow afternoon, I might take the kids down to the trails and try and get a few pictures of them. Hopefully it will be a beautiful day and the trees will still look great for some great pictures. Have to wait and see.

Hope this finds everyone well. Here is a shout out:

*Congrats Kristal and Ryan on the new house, it looks great, can't wait to see it in person.
