What's up..

I'm ba-ack.

Sorry my posting has been so sporadic; I know you all are pining away waiting for my blogs :)

Updates (I think I should call these Praises instead):

My mom is out of the hospital and doing much better. Her treatment is a little tricky and she has more tests to be done, so please pray for her.

We listed our house on Tuesday and got a contract for the full asking price on the same day!! Our heads spun for awhile after our realtor called. I almost burst into tears and I am not sure if it was happy or sad.

I bought my first sewing machine this week. I am making a t-shirt/memory quilt for Richard. An extremely talented band mom is guiding me in this project. Let's just say I bit off more than I realized but it will be great. I am very excited about this project and have been sewing like a mad woman. Funny moment: she asked me what kind of sewing experience I had and I said home ec in the 7 grade. I made a hideous pair of purple shorts that I couldn't even wear; they were awful!! I think she got the picture real quick...

The inspector comes tomorrow. Please pray that goes well.

The Office returned to television tonight!!!! The Lewis household was very excited. (I had to come back and add this)

In case you are wondering:

We do not have a house in our new town. We are looking online for the moment and are planning a "shopping" trip at the end of the month.

We close on our current home May 28. Hopefully, the new owners will give us a few extra days to stay in.

I will post pictures of my nephew very soon.

I love the listing comments of your house. "Clean as a pin" Adorable and Imaculate. Your realtor deserves their commission! They described your house very well. The pic's are great! I'm sure as crafty and domesticated as you are sewing is not to big of a stretch for you!!! I would probly get tangled in the thread as I'm trying to put it in the machine. I want to learn how to sew. I know you are going to be busy over the next several weeks, however let's try and get together for some lunch are maybe a picnic at the park. We would love to have Matthew come over and play if you could use some time packing and getting things done! Sorry for such a long comment! Love ya- Nicole

No rest for the weary, I'm back too and happy to be here. Thanks for all the prayers. I have experienced answered prayers many times and know their power.I'm like K, I have to tell myself to breath too. How blessed your lives have been. God is always standing there waiting on us. HE IS AWESOME! I still have those shorts in a box. Purple was your favorite color at that time. Thank you for coming to see me in the hospital it lifted my spirits to the outer limits.
