Raising boys is so interesting. Never a dull moment. I knew when Tanner was born, I was meant to play with cars and trucks. We had Power Rangers instead of Barbies. And the things they come up with--well, the biggest thing ever around here is Midnight Hide and Seek. Yep,we live on an acre right across from a housing addition. Tons of cedar trees and great places to hide. We are the neighborhood 'hot spot' for Midnight Hide and Seek. Strange thing is--it MARCH! Not June or July with humid nights, fireflies and mosquitos. Five boys were running around last night outside in hoodies and ski masks. Totally Hilarious! Oh, and it's not something they 'outgrow'. At almost 16--you can tell by the tracker below, Tanner was outside with Dylan and his buds!

Praising His Name!!
This Easter Weekend, not only are we praising God for his son, Jesus Christ--we are so thankful for His work in our lives!!
Many of you may know my 80 year old Dad was diagnosed with cancer. UGH--the C word. Just hate the thought of it! It's one of those things that you are caught between a rock and a hard place--most literally! Either way, treament or no treatment--you are sick. I absolutely HATE the thought of him suffering.
ANYWAY, after numerous tests, his cancer has NOT spread! He does not have a growth in his chest! It is localized and we are so thankful! He started chemo on Thursday, and bless his heart, he's worried about losing his hair. And for those of you that don't know him, he's had a Marine haircut all his life AND wears a hat! We'll never be able to tell!
He's always been a survivor--never backed down to ANYTHING in his life and now he's going to give the ugly old C word a GOOD FIGHT! He's got a great attitude, a family who loves him and and the good Lord in his corner! Get ready for a Knockout! You can do it Dad!!! We're cheering for ya!
