Wow, it has been a very long time since I have written. Even though I love writing and am thankful for the times that I have had to write, realizing that life gets in the way, and I don't like that. So much in the day to day happens, and I "want" to write, I have to accept that what I "want" is NOT at all what I get!
So since it has been a while I thought it would be best to update on where I have been and where I am at, including my family.
Troy is still working construction and for inknown reasons, work as been nt what we have been used to, but then again I do not believe the Lord wants us to rely on what we have always known. For that, it keeps us ever before His throne asking what He desires of us. Troy loves who he is working with and I so believe that the Lord is doing something way beyond the "work" surface. but it is the vehicle the Lord is using. 
Dan and Christianna have gone into their 2nd year of marriage as of October and we couldn't be happier. As most of you know the "honeymoon" season is over, but they have graciously stepped into the next season of their marriage.
Nick,Kelsey and Ella are still in Montana, and as much as we want them here, it isn't always about what we want! Thankful for Skype and the many phone calls, and texts that we share daily. As for me.... well life is full. Homeschooling Zach, caring for a 2 year old everyday and his siblings after school, helping Christianna with the wee one she watches as she has appt. to attend to, and then we are in the almost complete process of "respite foster care", I wonder at times weather I am in the "perfect will" of the Lord. There are many days I doubt weather I am doing what He wants, and those days I so wish I could just stay in bed, but then when I take the thoughts captive and bring them into obedience to the Lord, I find HIS peace to continue in the ways He has lead.
I pray that I am able to write more in the weeks ahead. Looking forward to connecting with many.
