Team Butterflies!

This past weekend Sarah had her last soccer game. She ended the season with scoring another goal yesterday, learning about soccer, having fun, and becoming great friends with 5 other girls.

After the soccer game, they had a party at Coach Chris' house. They handed out awards and had lunch. Wanted to share a

few pictures of the day-

On a side note...Wanted to give you an update on my mom. We have received the news about her recent scan. The cancer is rapidly growing in the liver. They are trying one more chemo drug. (She took drug this past Friday) This drug has been known to go into liver failure at any time. It will take close observation and lots of blood work from her doctors to keep an eye on her. When this does happen Hospice will be called in.

I appreciate all the words of encouragement and lifting up in your prayers. They are felt. My prayer for right now- would be to have as many good days as I can with my mom and be able to enjoy them. Also pray that when the time comes that God gives Karl & I the words to say to Sarah and explain what has happened.

Thank you again, for all the prayers. We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends.

Mother's Day

Mother's Day 2011

Wow! Has it really been that long since my last post?

Sorry for the delay. Mother's Day was wonderful!

On Friday, Sarah's school had a Mother's Day Tea. Each of the kids planted a flower and painted a picture. It was so sweet! Here are a few pics:

On Saturday we got a chance to go out to eat with my sister and her family and my parents. My mom was feeling o.k. and it was a good excuse for her to get out and go to Beach Road Chicken! (The best fried chicken ever!)

Sunday, we relaxed at home.

Karl and Sarah surprised me with breakfast

in bed! Homemade chocolate chip waffles- Sarah's request!

Got a chance to do some shopping at the outlets and got my mother's day gifts. Coach purse, and clothes at Ann Taylor. The rest of the day was just relaxing around the house.

I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family! I love being a wife and mother to Karl & Sarah. I only hope to be as good of a mother and my mom is!

Please be in pray for her...she had a scan last week and her cancer markers are back up again! She is loosing strength- We are very blessed that we are in Jacksonville to help out.
