Hi everyone! Well we had an eventful day, Alot of my family came over to our house for dinner and cake and ice cream. I have to tell you all how lucky I am and what a wonderful husband I have. For my Birthday Brian gave me an "all about me day" which is a planned outting for 24 hours with my friend Kali. He made appointments for a massage, facial & manicure, then gave me money to go to the mall to buy a bathing suit and have lunch, then made reservations at a really nice restaraunt for dinner and a nights stay at a really nice hotel with a pool and hot tub (see where the bathing suit comes into play?) It was the best gift ever!!!! He planned it all himself. I am so excited I could scream. A whole 24 hours away is both awsome and scary. I have never left him or karissa for that long. Anyway, I just had to share that with anyone who will listen.

Everything is going pretty good. The time change screwed everyone up here, especially the little one!!! She finally went to sleep at 4:30am!! We check the blog everyday now that we can and we love to hear from everyone. Take care!

Much love - Emily

Emily,
Happy Birthday. I can't think of anyone more deserving of that gift than YOU! Brian just knows what a terrific wife he has. Karissa is so beautiful-I see a little of both of you in her. Enjoy your day! Jennifer

I hadn't checked in in quite a while. Great to see you posting updates more regularly. You do all look great, and what a gorgeous child! I dare anyone to look at her picture and not smile.

Still praying for you,

You do make me proud dear, and both the blog and the pictures are great and great to be back on line with you. Nice shooting Bri, I bet you are a sniper, gotta watch out! And Karissa!!! Oh my goodness- how absolutely adorable she is!!! And she looks just like you Em, sorry I did catch a glimpse of your baby pictures and there she is! Unbelievable.

Emily and Brian,
Happy Easter in this time we remember Him who endured all for us, died and was raised again. I do pray that the peace of Christ, the peace that passes all understanding which is far beyond anything we can ask or imagine will be with you!!

Love
Katie

JUST WANT TO SAY HAPPY EASTER TO EM'S FAMILY.
WE, BRIAN'S FAMILY, JUST WANT YOU ALL TO KNOW HOW APPRECIATIVE WE ARE FOR ALL OF THE SUPPORT YOU HAVE GIVEN HIM.
HOPEFULLY WHEN THE WEATHER GETS NICER, WE CAN ALL PLAN A DAY TO GET TOGETHER AND HAVE A COOK OUT.
HAPPY EASTER!

Hello folks, Your pics are fantastic and what a beautiful family you all are. NOTE: I was wondering if you have tried ESSIAC TEA from canada? A nurse with the last name of Caisse got this and it did infact cure many many people I have started to use it myself and I will stick to it to see for my self but the instructions for fixing the liquid tea is picky picky picky you have to use stainless steel and glass containers. Im glad you have all enjoyed my husband . He talks so kindly about each and everyone of you . He adores that daughter of yours and I must admit she is a beauty for sure. Call me if you like Ask Terry for the number . If you need some advice on your rights as far as Health Services let me know. Thankyou for all the nice things you and your Husband Brian has done for Terry and myself
The syrup is so delicious and the maple butter is so good again thank you
