Haddon, Karlyn and Baby Levia visit!

What a treat for me to have these special people come and visit me on a cold winter day. Little Levia is so cute and full of personality. Her little hair on top of her head makes me laugh. She loves to smile and laugh and she sleeps thru the night and not yet 4 months old! She is the drooling princess!

Happy 56th Birthday Nurse Russell!

What a dear friend you have been to me. Nursing School never would of been as much fun without you. We were such young things looking out into the hospital parking lots when we were seniors dreaming of our first car. Funny thing, we both bought the exact car and color that we dreamed of. Oh what journeys we had in those "Plymouth Dusters"! $3400 for a new car in 1974!
I hope you have a special day and we will do dinner out soon! Love you!

Happy Birthday Mandy!

What an adventure you and Robert had this week riding on this to your little fish house on the Lake of the Woods! It sounds like a fun time but I hope he takes you out to a nice cozy dinner tonight!

Happy Birthday Dear Mandy, I am so glad you are in our family. I will never forget the kindness and love you gave to my Mom when you cared for her in the Nursing Home and for all the little extra special things you did for her to make her life easier. You were our angel and "Grandma" loved you like her flesh and blood grandchildren. Just think, we will see her again in Heaven!

Missionary Jenna

Jenna Dean, Pastor Rob and Kim's only daughter has just started her deputation as she has been called to the Mission Field in South America in Venezuela. She went on her first Mission Trip with us about 10 years ago when we went to Nicaragua after Hurricane Mitch had destroyed so much of the country. It was there at age 12 that God spoke to her and called her to Missions. What a thrill for me to have been with her when the seed was planted in her heart. She spoke at church this morning and the Mission Committee took her out to dinner after. Her excitement and enthusiasm really blessed me. What a special young gal she is! Jenna, I love you and am so proud of you that you are following your heart and that you have listened to God's voice!

Happy 34th Birthday Stacy Anne!

Stacy, what a blessing you have been to our family. You have always been so thoughtful and have had a servants heart just like your Mom. I was 34 (and you were 12) when I had my nose surgery and I was staying at Gram and Gramps between my surgeries and I remember how miserable I was with my nose packed. I had such a sinus headache and you came and spent the day with me while Mom and Dad worked. I remember how good an ice cold cloth felt on my forehead and you started forming them in the shape of my forehead and putting them in the freezer for me. I remember that day thinking to myself......."I wonder if she will become a nurse some day??" And you did and no doubt you are a good one. Here you are with you dear husband Brian and I love this 4 generation picture taken in 2006. Poor Mama didn't feel good that day but she loved having you and your little Brianne with her. I hope this is a very happy happy Birthday Love you lots!

Happy New Year Dear Family and Friends!

The New Year is one of making changes, starting over and trying to be a better person than we were last year...........without Jesus guiding and directing us we will fail. This little inspirational movie blessed me and I wanted to share it with you. May 2009 bring us New Beginnings and Peace and Joy that only Jesus gives. Pray for me, I am praying for you!
love from Susan
