We have moved

Well as most of you know we are now living in Washington. We have no internet at our house .So I am using the library computer.That means no more blogging for a while or not very often. We live way up on a hill that is going to be terrible in the winter to drive down to town.Our house in Oregon has not sold and we are praying it does.

My New Purse

I had this purse made for me by Sis.Cyndie F. She is making these and selling them.I told her I wanted anything with Dark Brown and Black in it. This is what she came up with and I love it. In the pictures the black almost looks blue.I love all the pockets. I took some stuff out of it so you could look inside and get a better view.

Kitchen is finished

IT looks great I love the way it turned out.

Work In Kitchen

This is what the old cabinets looked like.

Old cabinets.

Kitchen tore out for work.

New black sink.

New black contertop.

New white cabinets and doors and drawers.

The sinks are extra deep so they hold lots of dirty dishes as you can see.

Well I never thought it but it looks like we are headed for Brewster.Our kids are acually excited and I think I am okay with it except it is along ways for my mom to come see us ,she won't be able to come that far by herself.

We have been working very hard on our house to get everything finished for a final inspection from our addition remodel work.So far we have past most of the finals.We have been getting all the stuff finished on the house like the trim inside ,putting up closet doors more painting and all the little things to get your house ready to sell.

I have been packing anything that we don't need out or use. Sorting thru stuff to get rid of at a sale in 2 weeks that we are going to have with Derek's family.It is alot of work to move when you have been the same house for almost 11 years .We are not like some that move alot.We have been married almost 19 years and only lived in 7 houses. When we moved here from Colorado 13 years ago we came with 2 pickup loads and a car and 3 little kids under 4 .Now I am sure we have alot more stuff HaHa and 6 kids .Lots of stuff that I don't want to replace so taking lots with us. Oh well.New closet doors we put on kids room and hall way closet.yard sale stuff. my packing.Brian doning trim work .

The Mom Song

My sister-law sent this video to me on friday ,I just love it.

New Cell Phones.

We switched to Unicel 2 years ago so that we would have coverage in the places we go that were roaming.In November Brian broke his phone so he got me a new one and took my old one .Now Unicel changed to Verison and they said our Unicel phones won't work, come in and get FREE NEW phones.So now we have Verison and we got Elise a phone too (that she has to pay for.) We plan to call all our friends that have Verison with our cell phones ,to save some money .If it works out good we might get rid of our long distance at home or atleast our unlimited long distance. We also have FREE Unlimited Text messaging.We are learning how to do this,it is fun. Little note to our friends if you have verison and we don't have your number and you want us to call or text or email it to us.



Yeah we are going over the mountain to Hillsboro to see some good brethern .Hope to have something or atleast some good pictures next week .See ya.

Life

I just want to thank god for all he has done for me and our family .I feel like even tho we will not be having a little one at this time ,god has been good to us.Times are very hard right now for most everyone.I just praise god that Brian has a job.My family is all healthy and I am too.In many ways this has strenghthened me,I have been in this faith since I was 17 and I have to say that most of the time I have not done much for the Lord.(That was a big run on for you Sabrina.) In the past few months I have tried to seek god more ,especially at church.I have been able to hear him at times and do what he asks.I have always had a hard time getting down and praying in church ,don't know why ,but recently god has sent me to pray for someone else and I was able to do it.I feel like maybe I am finially starting to know how to seek god in all things.Not just the things we want him for.When I was expecting I started praying alot more and I started reading my bible during the days when I was really bad sick and I found so much comfort.I know that if it was not gods will then I need to not question it ,it maybe hard to understand but he knows what we need and when we need it. The one thing I have thought about is that it all happens for a reason,so the reason was to help me have more faith in him.

Update

I had a very bad time November 7th.And since then I was not sure what was going on if I was still ecpexting or not.It seemed like my tummy was getting smaller and I just was not sure.Today my tummy was so flat that I decided to try on my regular jeans.They fit and feel good.So I went in to Town and bought a test.It can out Negetive.I am pretty upset but in so many ways it is for the best .And now I know what is happening with me .I was in so much turmoil not knowing if I was to have a baby and when ,no movement and just was pretty scared.So even tho I am upset and sad it is proply for the best.W e will have to talk to our kids tonight.I know they will be upset.So please pray for us.
