"Family Room Siterie"

I found this couch and chair about 9 months ago in a furniture store near buy. It was what I had been asking God for, for a while. The store was having a pretty good sale and the salesperson happens to be a pretty good friend. So I have been making payments on it for 8 months and finally this past weekend my mom and I made the trip to town in, once again, the pick up and trailer. Todd cleaned the trailer out real well and I had the muscle men set the furniture on the tarp and then while I finished the paper work, my mom wrapped it like a baby in a blanket.
About three years ago I found the "buckin horse" pillows in the Rod's catalog for about a 1o.oo and I have been hearding that box around over the years. You will be amazed at what I have stashed away that is about to make its debut . I have always wanted to use that word.
I am really excited for the next year or so, when I will be able to get into my storage stash and get some other neat things that I have been collecting for the past 5-1o years. You will just to have to keep coming back to be sure and not miss anything. :)

I am so excited to have our daughters and their families all here.

Someday soon.
Till Next Time God Bless

Black Mustang Stallion


Finally got all three of the set found the first one I found in Washington in a little nick-nack drug store. I had seen them before on the Internet like on art.com and other places but not framed.
The second one I found in a tack store my friend took me to in Boise, Idaho. Tack and ranch stores are by far my favorites. And the third one I found on the web address on the back on the first two. When I emailed them they said they mostly just had representatives that sell to business, but she did not have a rep. near my home town. The pictures are all the same size, with the same frame. The horse is a mustang from around the Denver area, the photographer is a guy by the name of Claude Steelman.
I really do like them. My cousin says "for goodness sakes, comb out that horse's mane, I shutter to think what his tail looks like." I love my cousin Bob.
Todd and I decided to hang them in the upstairs hall so that everyone can enjoy. I was happy to have them for when my kids and grandbabies are home.
They are just right for the wall and the can lights are lined up over each one. Not because we planned it that way, just another "PraiseGod." Like the so many before
Just wanted to share. Let me know what you think.
Till next time, God Bless

Introducing William Voss


William was born November 3rd, 7:30 a.m., by c-section, weighing 8 lbs, 14 oz's, 22 3/4 long, as beautiful as his cousins before him. We always pray for good, healthy babies and God always answers and adds beautiful skin, hair and awesome personalities as an extra, Just cause He can. We are so blessed and we are careful to give Him the praise. Our daughter Sami is doing so good, I cannot believe how much better the c-section cuts are compared to when I had our three daughters. Sami is up and going, Slowly, but she is looking so good and I am thankful. One of the things I struggled with when I had my babies was having to have someone besides me take care of my baby. My mom is by far one of the best baby-taker-carers and I was so blessed to be able to stay at my folk's house for the first week, but I always got down for not being able to care for my baby. I know that that is very important and I try not to just do it all for the girls when their babies come. They may start to think that I am not much help, but I do have a reason for it. The girls nurse their babies which is another really good thing. William got right to it, which is such a blessing. The nurses at the hospital were fantastic. One nurse in the delivery recovery was born and raised near our town and went to school with my brother and me. It was good to see her and she took great care of Sami and William.The nurses on the floor were awesome as well, one nurse, was one Sami had when Paul was born. She is great to be around. Sami's husband stayed with her and the baby during the day and I spent the nights there. Not that I am much help, but I am a good cheerleader and I can put a baby to sleep like none other. My grandchildren are precious in my sight. William got cold in the room so I rolled him up in my down comforter and he purrrrrred like a kitten. I mean, who wouldn't want to be in this little nest? DUH! The nurses and Doctor got a kick out of it. We are now home and will try to get back into the swing of work this coming week. I already miss William and Paul and am planning another trip as soon as I can. Crazy Mimi!

Stand Strong, Press On!
