Such a Beautiful Day

I know I've probably bored everyone to death with talk of the beautiful weather in the winter here in Presidio, but I have to do it at least this one more time (probably will do it again sometime). Here it is New Year's Eve . . . I'm used to being at least half frozen on New Year's Eve. Today the sun is shining (as it does 99% of the time here). We just got back from the Post Office. I am wearing shorts and a short-sleeved t-shirt, tennis shoes and socks, but I could be wearing sandals, and no jacket.  It was warm enough in the house that I have opened the windows to let the fresh air in. I know when summer comes we will be roasting in the 115 degree heat, but right now, we are loving this. Thank you all for letting me brag a bit.

Happy 80th Birthday

Thinking of Mom on her 80th birthday. I still miss her! This is a picture of her on her 49th birthday. She is holding her gift, a pasta maker. I love you Mom!

Blessings

I was just looking at the date on the last post and realized it's been 5 1/2 weeks since the news of twin to twin transfusion was given. I'm so thankful to all who have been fasting and praying for Laurel, the babies and the whole Staples family. I consider it a great blessing that they have been able to go this long and continue to hope and prayer they will last a few more weeks.

Laurel & Babies

There's a complication with Laurel's pregnancy called twin to twin transfusion. Here is a link to a video which explains it if you're interested http://www.texaschildrens.org/CareCenters/FetalSurgery/ttts/index.html. It's about 30 mins long.
Please remember Laurel, Nick and the babies in your prayers.
