We've moved!


Just up the road about 13-ish miles to Smith River.  Although Crescent City is considered a small town, we like even smaller.  And as a bonus, Smith River tends to have more sunny and warmer days.  Now, that's something I can get excited about!  


Duke's domain has doubled in size...just right for his frisbee habit.  :D


And bonus...we now have a guest room.  So c'mon down for a visit!

Mare's eat oats and does eat oats

and little lambs eat ivy,
A kid'll eat ivy too
Wouldn't you? 

Just one of those little tunes rolling around in my head tonight.  :D

Tomorrow, our oldest embarks on his first full-time journey into the very field he has dreamt of, studied for, and now been selected for...aviation maintenance.  We are so proud of his dedication and diligence in making his dreams come true.  It's absolutlely phenomenal watching as each of our offspring spreads his or her wings!

It's been a while!

I'm often caught delightfully off guard when given the chance to see the hand of God at work.  And so it's been, since my big C diagnosis last October, that I've been witness to the most incredible side of His creations (that be us).  The unexpected news could have been scary beyond scary, yet I've had this peace about going through the process of overcoming and healing.  Along the way, what normally is perceived as horrific, has produced some of the most beautiful moments I've experienced in my lifetime.  The closeness this has brought my darling husband and I is priceless.   Friends and friends I have not yet met have blessed my family with their love and support and prayers.  It's been a real honor to be part of a wake up call for those who have been taking their blessings for granted.  Thank you Lord for choosing me as your instrument.

Almost done with the treatments...I'm loving each and every gift this journey presents!
