AMAZING NEWS!!

Today we found out that Pop's Leukemia is in REMISSION! This is amazing news, because in October, the news was so grim. They didn't expect Pop to live long, to be able to recieve treatments or to beat Leukemia.

God had other plans! He not only lived longer than expected, recieved MORE treatments than normal (7 treatments, 5 is normal) but NOW his Bone Marrow is NORMAL!!! The Doctor's are stumped and don't understand how this can be...

We believe that God has chosen to hear prayers and to heal Pop. He has blessed him with many reasons to live and is an example of God's joy and love. We will continue to pray that his life is a living example of God's miracles (beating cancer TWICE!) and more importantly of the miracle of Christ dying on the cross for our sins, pouring out his grace on our lives, when we don't deserve it.

Thank you Lord for this blessing of Life!!!

May

May was another exciting month for us! Elise continues to grow and gain weight...she has an appointment on the 15th, so we'll see how big she is then! Nora is a great big sister, she's usually very gentle and loving with her!

Here's some pictures of what we've been up to this past month...

I took some pictures of Dan and Amy before the baby comes!

These are some of my favorites


I really like this one...so sweet.

Then Tim and I headed off to a B&B for one night...we could have stayed much longer!!

While we were there, Amy was going through the WORST labor and delivery...I felt so bad for her! But, we were finally able to meet little Emma...so adorable!

Here we are at Tim's parents for Memorial Day weekend...Nora playing the harmonica...
Steve, Rachel, Tim and I went to Arts Fest...
Elise was there too...
As always, we had a great time with Steve and Rachel

Here's Nora making cards for Dan, Amy and Emma


Elise is sitting nearby in her Bumbo...

She's growing up fast...

I'll post some pics of her along with some pics of me as a baby...she looks like I did!!

Here's Nora meeting baby Emma for the first time

Here we are at the pool! Thanks to Gram for getting us a pool pass...
Elise is fast asleep...

Nora loves the water, here she is in the baby pool...

This year, she's tall enough to stand in the "big pool"!!!
She's very brave!!! Walking all by herself!I think she'll be swimming by the end of the summer!

Here's Elise...she found her thumb!!
