He's Home, He's Home, He's Home!!!!!

Yippee, my man is home. It was a great trip for them with a total of 10 salvations and 2 baptisms with contact with over 100. God truly blessed them. We had such a great reunion. The kids are thrilled. Now it is time to get back in the swing of things. At least the kids will be done with their school today, and we can just focus on church things. Thanks to all of you who prayed for us. God was so faithful. I'll post some pictures of the trip soon. Have a great weekend, I know I will!!!!

This is the Day!:)

Well, in just a few hours myself and another wife will be heading to Atlanta to spend the night to pick up our team. I can't believe this is the day! This time tomorrow, my man will be home safe and sound, Lord willing! Please continue to pray for traveling mercies. I have not been able to get the tracker to work on this flight, but I am trying not to worry. Pray that God will continue to give me that peace! I will post a pic. of my world traveler when he gets back! Love you all!

Back From the Doctor

We are back from the doctor. We saw a different one than we normally do because he was at a c-section. Anyway, this doc. seems to think she has a cold, and combined with the cat thing it just set off her asthma. In my professional opinion, I do not think that is it at all. I think the cat allergy set off her asthma. If you guys could have seen her last night before we came home, you would agree with me. She said we could do a blood test to confirm the cat allergy, but why put Chara through that when I am almost 100% positive she is allergic to cats(both Jamie and I as well as Noah are as well). Jamie does this same thing with his asthma when he gets around cats too.

All that to say they gave her another breathing treatment and put her on a round of oral steroids for 5 days. I will continue to give her Benadryl also until her eyes are better(still puffy and red.)

I was just thinking the other day how thankful I was that with both of Jamie's mission trips no one has gotten sick and had to go to the doctor. God does have a since of humor. Anyway, that is a "Day in the Life" I guess!!!

The Downhill Slide

Last night I talked to Jamie for the last time before he is back in the good ole US of A. They left and are touring around a neighboring city all day today. In the morning they will get on the plane for their long trip back across the ocean.

Special requests. The stomach health of the team. One has already been down a few days ago with something and Jamie was not feeling well when I spoke with him. Travelling mercy, once they get back into the states, they only have 2 hours to get all need to get through ie customs, before catching their last plane home.

Please pray for Chara. We had to come home early from Mom's because she had a very bad reaction to my mom's cats. She was wheezing very bad(I was contemplating taking her to the hospital), but we came home and I gave her a 2 nebs, and another one at 4:00am. I am going to take her to the doc this morning. Pray that he will give her some meds to help her with this.

Tomorrow afternoon myself and another lady whose husband went are going to Atlanta to spend the night and pick up our crew. I will try to update tomorrow, but if I don't I will on Thurs. after I get my man home!!!

Have a great day and keep on Believing God, after all, He IS who He says he is!!!!!

Just a Quick Update

Well, I made it through the morning. Jamie called this morning during the service and shared some AWESOME news. 2 of the 7 people that became believers got to go swimming!!! God does answer prayers. Jamie said that more would have but some of their equipment was stolen during the ceremony. He would not elaborate, so when I hear the story I will pass it along.

God is truly blessing their trip. One of the gals with them is sick though so please pray for her. They just have one more day there before they begin their journey home PTL!!!!! They are leaving a day early to spend the day and tour a neighboring city. Then beginning our Wednesday morning they will begin their journey back to the states. Hopefully by 9:00pm Wednesday, I will be able to talk to him on his cell phone. After tomorrow, I will not be able to talk to him until Wed. night. so that will be hard.

After church tonight, we are going to go to my Mom's house. If I don't update tomorrow, have a great Memorial Day!!

Thanks for all your prayers!!!

HEEELLPPPPP!!!!!

As my husband says, "It's Saturday night." Those of you in ministry totally understand what I am saying. With Jamie gone, I am of course having to do all his duties in preparation for Sunday. Needless to say, it is not going very well right now. I have given the kids 30 minutes to clean up their rooms and the rest of the house, and they are not even close to being done and they only have about 2 minutes left. We still have to get baths, I am going to go ahead and iron tonight, etc. Anyway, I say all that to say PLEASE pray for me the next 24hours are going to be EXTREMELY hard for all of us. I will let you know how the rest of the night goes.

When I talked to Jamie this morning, they had added another person. So the total right now is 7 salivations. I asked him if they were going to go "swimming" before they left and he did not know. Just pray that maybe God will work that out and allow Jamie to be part of that. They are going t o have their service at 9:30 pm our time (they are 12 hours ahead.) If I don't talk to you before have a great day in the Lord's house tomorrow!

Graduations and Good Reports!!!

Well, we are finally over the hardest part of our week. Both graduations went well. I have posted pictures of both girls for you to see. Hannah Beth's had some minor glitches, but those were worked out. All I can say it PTL they are over!!!Chara Before Tuesday Night's Graduation

Hannah Beth before her Cowboy play

Thursday night

Hannah Beth in her cap and gown!

She's in First Grade now!!!!(homeschooling 3 yikes!!!!)

(I didn't realize how long her dress was. It was hanging a good 3 inches from out of the bottom of her gown. Oh Well!)


Just a quick update on the team. I talked to Jamie this morning and he said they had had 6 people accept Christ. That is so awesome. On Sat. a team is going into some schools to do some dental hygiene education. Please pray that God will open up doors for them to share. Please keep praying for me and the kids too. Sunday is coming and that is always a stressful day around here. Monday and Tuesday we are going to stay with my mom and will come home on Wed., then I will go spend the night in Atlanta to pick up the team first thing on Thurs. I can't wait!!!



Continue to pray for safety and the opening of doors. Thanks again, and enjoy the pictures!
