Good Morning!!

Good morning everyone! I have been determined that it is spring and so once again I have decided to wear shorts. The only problem with this is that the weather is not cooperating. I have made a plethora (I love that word) of cupcakes this morning. They are for Alyssa's birthday tomorrow. I will be taking them to her class. She is going to be 9. Where does the time go? We are getting her another hamster for her birthday. She wants a white one. I will get a picture of her and her new hamster as soon as I can. I will be quitting my job on May 12th so that I can be at home this summer. Richard will have 2 weeks of AT (annual training for the national guard) in June and then in July we will be traveling to Washington/Oregon. So for all of you who live in those places, you have been properly warned when we show up on your doorstep begging for a place to stay! =) I went to a Women's Conference with Leann this weekend. It was absolutely amazing. The women were such an encouragement. "I am mine, no more". Rebekah came with me and I think that she learned some things. Sometimes we get caught up in our lives and forget to let God in. He bought us with his son's blood. "But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions-it is by grace you have been saved." Ephesians 2:4-5 May our God give you boldness to do what is right today. I would ask that you pray for Aaron. We have been having some difficulties with him so on May 20th we will be seeing a psychologist. I would ask that we resolve his problems. Also that Richard and I would be open to what they have to say. Love you all!
