Our first day was a time to relax before convention started up. We roamed around Aunt Amy's little town of Watertown. It was very cute. We went to the library and Elizabeth read some books. Then we ate at a Depot for lunch and watched the toy train go around the deli on it's track. It's a cute little town and I look forward to seeing it at Christmas.Monday, September 28, 2009
Watertown, TN
Our first day was a time to relax before convention started up. We roamed around Aunt Amy's little town of Watertown. It was very cute. We went to the library and Elizabeth read some books. Then we ate at a Depot for lunch and watched the toy train go around the deli on it's track. It's a cute little town and I look forward to seeing it at Christmas.
Pictures and more are coming...MY MOPS Weekend
Wednesday-
Drove 9 hours with 2 kids who NEVER cried one time and made the trip a dream.
Thursday-
Left both kids for the first time with my sister and her hubby and headed to the Gaylord Opryland version of Disney Land. Roamed around for 2 hours like a start struck country bumpkin, taking self portraits any time I thought no one was looking.
Thursday Evening-
Met up with the other ladies and got a little giddy. Ran like a fool with about 1000 other "I need me time" crazed mommies and got 16 seats saved ALL BY MYSELF.
Thursday Night-
Had a great opening night. fell in love with my steering team even more and drove home 45 minutes to my sisters house. (Sang country songs really loudly to keep myself awake)
Friday Morning-
Back with the girls, started my morning with a private (Oh you were there too?) worship service with Matty and just took it to a "whole 'notha level". Heard Plumb sing live and now believe she is the best singer in the world.
Friday-day-
Spent the day being refreshed and reminded that 1. God is good and loves all of us. 2. No mom should be alone. 3. I am really Super Woman!
Friday Night- More worship, dance, spinning around with the Lord. Loving my steering team even more for not thinking I am the nutty one off to the side in my own little world. Blisters on my feet. More amazing worship. (starting to miss my family) Sushi with the Yolande by my side and the rest of the amazing ladies. Talked into spending the night with the girls. Jennifer gave me her bed and SLEPT ON THE FLOOR. (thanks girl, you have a servants heart) Sleep.
Saturday Morning-
Last day, Matt Redman, Matthew West, Kristi Nockels (spelling) Plumb, does it get any better? (Natalie Grant too, but I missed her...) Great speakers. Christ Love. Awesome Worship. Meeting other moms. Me time.... I am so filled up.
Home now. And ready to be a better mom.

Urgent Prayer
Our Family Needs your PrayersI ask you to pray for our family this week. It's been a tough one for all of them. We ask for prayer for Grandma Lambert (Brian's Grandmother; Sandra's Mom) She is recovering in ICU from Heart surgery and has given us a few scares. We are waiting and hoping in the Lord for her to recover.
We ask for prayer for Ann Pulsifer (Dave's Sister n law; Brian's Aunt) She is fighting Brain cancer, and this week has not gone well. Again, hoping and waiting on the Lord.
Then we ask prayer for a friend that we will not name. Very close to the family, who has for the 2nd time miscarried a child. This time quite far a long and so if you are a mom, then you know what she is facing.
Our Family ask that all of you "get your knees dirty".
The Lord Gives and He takes away,
blessed be the name of the Lord.

Updates on Joshua
Channel 3 AM Show & Joshua's Tumor Counts
Posted Sep 16, 2009 7:05pm
I asked my mom, Mary Bean, to contact Jed Mescon, a Channel 3 News Anchor, to see if he could drum up more support for Sunday's Taste of Hamilton Place by sending in info to him about Joshua's cancer journey. Jed called my mom back, got my number, and called me to ask if I could send a brief e-mail with a pic of Joshua. Jed tells me that he will air this story tomorrow, Thursday, bright and early on his show. I'm not a morning person, but you bet I'm getting up for this! I am so excited about the opportunity to support the cause of Childhood Cancer Awareness and T.C. Thompson Children's Oncology Clinic. Please everyone that can, tune into Chattanooga's Morning Show on WRCB TV Channel 3.
Today I called the T.C. Thompson Children's Oncology Clinic to get an update on Joshua's AFP, tumor marker; and they informed me that it's dropped 3 more points making his AFP total only 65! The therapy and prayer are working...keep it up everyone! We appreciate your devotion to us in your support! Don't forget that we love you but God loves you the most!

Sorry Joshua's Story Did Not Run But I Have Great News
Posted Sep 18, 2009 1:14pm
My heart sank as I viewed Thursday morning's news cast, when Tim turned the TV on there was Jed was covering a special live report about Eastridge flooding as well as other parts of the city. This is not only trajic news for our area but it knocked Joshua out of the lineup for his story and pic to be on the morning news. This morning I received a phone call from the WRCB Channel 3 Newsanchor, Jed Mescon. He informed me that he still had not received Joshua's pic but would like to do an exclusive story about Joshua. I was thrilled about this bit of news because the T.C. Thompson Children's Oncology Clinic is to have another push for funding besides this Sunday's Taste of Hamilton Place but this time it will be a radiothon November 5-7 by Sunny 92.3 DJ, James Howard. Hopefully, we'll be able to make all the arrangements to have it air around that time. WOW! there are a lot of exciting things happening for and to us lately. I feel as though one day we are going to be able to roll the red carpet out for these kids at the clinic who happen to be battling cancer. Yee-Haw! Hallelujia! Amen & Praise the Lord! As I have more info, I will let you know where and when to tune in.
I called the clinic yesterday to get Joshua's AFP, tumor counts, and they informed me that they have come down 3 points; so now his total count is 65! I was so happy to hear that Joshua's counts continue a downward trend! Please help us continue on this prayer journey to Joshua's ultimate healing. Don't you forget that we love you but God loves you the most.
