Changes Coming and More Updates Coming Soon...Promise!!

Sorry I've been absent from here so much lately!  It is really taking a lot out of me to get the new site done and at the same time, school and work are really busy right now!  I've got much to share, mucho, mucho:  we're taking our first road trip (that's right, all eight of us), Casey is going under the knife, there is a GINORMOUS announcement that is coming soon, got a cool little tool that we are going to start using on the site that will enhance everyone's lives, pictures, pictures, pictures, and oh yeah, the babies are doing awesome so there is plenty to share there, of course!!  Life is good, look for something just before Thanksgiving... :)

Prayers for Reese

If you have a special Bible verse that has helped you through a difficult time, please post it so I can forward to the family.  The surgery went well yesterday, but was long (seven hours) and little Reese and her family have a long battle ahead.  Please continue to pray...

If you'd like to know more about Reese's story, follow the link here.

Prayers Needed, Please!!

I wanted to ask for some prayers for a classmate of mine as he has just found out about a very difficult challenge his family is faced with.  His three year old daughter was diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer called Wilm’s Tumor. Here is a link to the condition:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilms%27_tumor. Reece is the daughter’s name.  Her tumor is 14 centimeters and they are removing it and a kidney today. Please lift up her and the family in prayer.  Thank you!

Change Is In The Air...

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that there are a lot of changes that will be happening with the website and blog in the coming few weeks.  I've been taking advantage of some very, very, very, absolutely ridiculously slow time with my day job, Eliot J Construction, by working on a new design for the website, the blog, and all points in between.  There will be lots of new features, different pages, and different capabilities that will be coming and we are really excited about it!!  Even after the new site is launched, I expect there will be quite a few more changes as we work to make it more functional, more user-friendly, and will even allow for better communication back and forth between us and the "followers" (not sure I like that term...a little too egocentric for my tastes!  Any suggestions?).  So if you come to the site one day and you are directed elsewhere, have no fear, it will lead you to a better place... ;-)
