A Few Updates
Ok, I know it’s been awhile and I was on a blogging roll and then I guess I just fell off. Things have been crazy lately as expected. Let’s see if I can catch you up.
Justin’s dad had shoulder surgery and his mom had knee surgery. They are both recovering nicely.
Our Barbecue lunch after church on Sunday was very successful. We were able to raise over $2000 towards our goal. On Monday night we had a team meeting and we have come pretty close to raising the minimum amount necessary for our trip. Once we surpass that amount we will be saving money to help with missions in Moscow in any way we can. Praise God for all the blessings He has given us while planning this trip. I look forward to many more as we get closer to the trip and go on it.
I’ve been working late this week for Summer rush. Things have been crazy. Monday zipped by in a blink of an eye. Today isn’t going so fast and I have to be here til 7:30ish 
I am missing church and a GOOOOD supper tonight hehe.
Our Missionary friends in Moscow have started a Blog. If any of you are interested in keeping up with their progress and their prayer requests just let me know and I’ll send you the link. I’m so excited to have a more active part in their prayer requests.
Justin has been burning some more and we have gained at least 10 feet of land so far. I can’t wait to get the creek cleared out. Our neighbors to the left of us have moved out. Come on Matt 
The other neighbors, the Parsons, that we are good friends with are out of town this week. I can’t wait for their return and neither can Java.
Speaking of Java, Please keep her and me in your prayers. She will be having surgery tomorrow morning (getting fixed). I’m worried about her and I hope everything will go okay. I really hope the surgery doesn’t slow her down too much and make her lazy. Please pray she will heal quickly.
I guess that’s it for now. At least that’s all I can think of. Have a grand night all.
Talking to your husband on MSN as I write this.
I remember what “that’s” like. We had both of our cats done at the same time, on the same day two years ago.
It was one of the roughest emotional trips we’ve had in this house, but they both pulled through, and life has been SO MUCH BETTER since. I wouldn’t recommend the trip to anyone, but the journey’s destination makes it all worth while.
Java is young… and a fighter. She will bounce back in no time at all. And I’m sure she had a great veterinarian. I don’t know what the process is with larger dogs, but I was shocked to learn that they don’t stitch cats anymore. Both of my babies came home GLUED. They were healed in less than a week.
Veterinary medicine has come JUST AS FAR in our lifetime as “real” medicine has. The horror stories we remember from our family pets when we were children are just that… memories. They don’t happen anymore.
Java will be fine.
Thank you so much Eric. We picked her up yesterday afternoon. She is definitely sore but doing a little better this morning. You were right about the glue part. Weird. I wish I could be with her today instead of work but between Justin and I we will take turns going to see her til we get off work. Thanks again
