Almost One!

My Brothers Back!

Jordan, as you all know... was such a sick kid not to long ago.

He has struggled with his health & has recently had some problems with the school.

His medicication has altered his personality so much that he is like a different person-

This has been really hard for Troy & I to deal with... Jordan was a big part of our lives before he got sick & now... he doesn't want anything to do with us?!?!

A few days ago, my parents made a great choice. They removed him from the class at school that was causing him mental stress & Jordan's Dr. has decided to take him off some of his medication..... Within a few days.... he has came back around. I can't imagine how difficult things have been for him. It has worried our whole family, but God has blessed us!

I ran across this picture of Jordan & Trent when they were little. They have always been best friends and worst enemies. They get on each others nerves, but they always want to be with each other... closer than brothers... and more than friends. When I saw this, It reminded me of the first time Trent saw Jordan in the hospital. He walked up to him and grabbed his hand and started whispering to him with tears falling from his eyes.... (makes me cry just thinking about it) Jordan wasn't able to respond to us at that point- it was a terrible feeling!

Those two little guys are so lucky to have each other! I love them both very very much! I am so proud of them!

Hard Workin'Man

I woke up one morning to this! Troy took out the whole kitchen wall!!!

This is what our house used to look like on the outside...

We have made lots of changes... This is Troy working on the siding... You can see the old siding at the top.

We know have the siding finished & we are working on the inside.

We put down new tile... and the bathroom is coming along quite well....

We are hoping to build on a garage with a large room above it in the spring....

I will post inside photos soon....
