Today we were driving to church as a family, following Ty and Sarah where they attend each week. They drive almost an hour to be part of this amazing place! It was a really wonderful service – We can totally see why they make the drive! As we drove each way, Dw and I started…

After 2,486 times of “Is it almost time to be at at Tyler and Sarah’s?” {sadly, 2,483 of those were from Dw! – haha!} and twenty-five hours of on-the-road drive time, we are here! We had not seen Tyler in over a year, and it is so wonderful to hug that boy of ours {and…

I talked to Vicki this evening. She was so thankful that Autumn was headed back up to stay, after having to work for a couple of days. Autumn was able to get some of her shifts traded so she’ll be up there for several days in a row. Karl’s fever is still not gone, in…

Just about two weeks prior to the accident {on the 4th of July} Karl and Autumn went to the Pagosa Springs parade. When I saw this picture for the first time, I noticed how his hand is clearly and tightly wrapped on her shoulder…. always figured that was a man’s way of sayin’…. “Yup, she’s…

Karl’s surgery went well. Very well. And I did not get to update last night about how well he was responding yesterday. I had spent time about an hour with Karl and all the while, I knew that Karl was completely responding. I read him verses, I prayed over him, I teased him….and at…

I am up in the ICU waiting room. Elizabeth came with me today. I woke up just before 4am and spent some time with the Lord. Then I ran to get a shower and met Elizabeth coming down the stairs. She said, “Mommy, where are you going?” I told her that Karl was having surgery…

Sunday, July 17th I had planned to do the post and share the name of our precious treasure whose upcoming arrival I had just announced. And just in case you were on vacation for a couple of weeks: I told the beautiful story of God orchestrating events to bring her to her forever family…

I have waited to update till we knew more. As it turns out, they opted not to do the surgery this morning. There was some thought that maybe Karl would not need it, as it turns out, they are going to do it tomorrow morning after all. {No definite time yet.} I was…
