Prayer Requests & Our Weekend Adventure!

First and foremost we have the following important prayer requests:

1.) Eric's Grandmother had a heartattack this weekend. They first thought it was a seizure, and she was taken in an ambulance to the hospital. Since they didn't know if she was breathing on her own well they started to put a tube down her lungs and she woke up not knowing what was going on and started fighting them (as anyone would if they woke up with tubes shoving down their throat!) Well it ripped her lung, but the update so far is that her lung looks like it will be ok. The seizure was actually a heart attack. She is doing a little better and might get her own room at the hospital tomorrow. But they don't know exactly what caused everything so please be in prayer for her. She is in a big hospital (I think in Owensboro or Louisville - don't know the name) but they don't have any relatives up there for support - its just Grandma and Papa Pete. Its Eric's only living Grandma left and he's been pretty upset about it.

2.) Lil' Miss Kaylea is sick yet again! She started having a fever yesterday (actually Friday she felt warm) and then the runny nose started - and last night she was miserable. Please pray for her!

Now on to our weekend!

We had 2 Kaylea and Mommy days this weekend so we filled it with lots of fun and activities. Saturday Kaylea accompanied me to the gym I am doing a website for and acted as my photography assistant while I got a few pictures of their staff. Here is a pic of Kaylea at the gym!

Then we headed to Wall Springs Park and played at the playground and then walked the long trail to the big tower where we could see lots of birds and an extraordinary view! On our hike Kaylea enjoyed picking out lots of leaves along her way. We also stopped to gather wood and build a stick house like the three little pigs did - but the wind blew it down! (This was Kaylea's idea!)

At Wall Springs there is a neat little "bending tree" that we found and Kaylea wanted to stop and rest there and take a nap on the tree. She soon figured out it might be hard to take a nap on the tree, so we took pictures instead! When we reached the tower we had a picnic at the top of the tower with the chicken nuggets we brought with us from McDonald's. I had to get some pictures of the tower for the gym as well because they will be doing some training out there. Along our walk Kaylea got to pet a big siberian husky - "the wolf from the three little pigs" of course. And we got to see lots of birds and little fish swimming in the water.

By the end of the day we were very tired! We made one more stop at Wal-Mart to buy a leotard and ballet shoes for an upcoming class Kaylea is taking and then we headed home. It was a day full of fun and adventure! Enjoy some of our pictures!
