Family Reunion












We spent this past weekend in New York at my mom's family reunion!! We had a great time!! I got to see my grandma, whom I hadn't seen in a couple of years!! She had congestive heart failure while we were there and was unable to make it to the reunion, so we went and saw her at the nursing home where she lives. It is kind of sad....she doesn't know who we are, but we do remember her!!:) A lot of good memories to think back on!! We sang some hymns for her and she even joined in on the last few words of "The Old Rugged Cross"...."I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross, and exchange it someday for a crown. :)

We stayed in a little house on Pleasant Lake with my sisters (Lisa) family. The lake was beautiful and the kids got to go out in a paddle boat!! It was nice just to get away from all the craziness of life!!

With that all said...I was in the Emergency Room last Tuesday night with a gallbladder attack!! Wow!! Hit me all at once!! Since this has all transpired..I have to have gallbladder surgery before I can have my reconstruction surgery!! So August 4th is off for my reconstruction surgery! The good news is, I can have the reconstruction surgery 2 weeks after the gallbladder surgery!! So, please keep me in your prayers as I cross this bridge!! Life is so crazy at times!! But one thing I know... the Lord has a reason for all that we have to go through!!
