Pics and stuff

I am back from my trip to Illinois. I am very happy to say that my little brother, Jeff, is feeling much better. Today the stiches will be removed, and after talking to him last night, I feel that he will find the whole experience some new adventure.
Here he is, along w/ Nessa, and myself, the day after his accident.




My trip home was a surprise for most of my family, and I am so glad I was able to pull it off. My dad and Janessa were such a big help. Mom's reaction was great, but I think the best reaction was that of my brother, Joseph. He was studying for his mid-terms, and didn't hear me come in. I ran back to his bedroom, threw open the door, and yelled, "JOSEPH!" Poor kid! He jumped, looked at me, and then started saying, "congratulations"! His reaction was so random, that I am convinced that I really shocked him.


While home, I was also able to meet Janessa's new horse, Selah. She's beautiful! I was so excited to see the joy on Janessa's face. She has wanted a horse for as long as I can remember, and to see that dream come true was truly amazing.

I'll hope to get some better pics of Selah soon. She wouldn't hold still long enough for me to get many good shots:) Here I am trying to keep her nose to the camera for a few seconds.



There's an update for all of you:)

Please say a prayer...

for my little brother, Jeff. I am at home this weekend, (managed to surprise most of my family.) My baby bro, Jeff, is in the hospital right now. He slipped on a ladder, on his way to a hay loft, and fell onto a sharp object. He has a VERY bad cut under his armpit. It goes well into the muscle, and bone was showing. It was bad enough that the doctor is perfoming surgery right now.

I will keep you all updated, and I do want to tell more about my quick trip home.

Thanks for praying.
