Missionaries

I would like to take a minute and talk about the great calling of Missionaries. Not the typical 18 and 21 year old, but the mom's and dad's, and grand parents, and great grandparents, who go out and serve the Lord. My wonderful in-Laws entered the MTC yesterday for a 23 month long mission. I am so grateful to have them part of my life, they have helped Mark and I in countless ways, that its hard to comprehend sometimes. They have raised a great son, who I love more then anything in this world. He treats me so well, and has such respect for his parents, I'm in awe every time I witness it. He truly was..." born of goodly parents." The entire Graff family, I know will be blessed as their Parents and grandparents serve the Lord in Guatemala. I have never been in a family that was able to receive the blessings from having a missionary go out and serve. So I am wondering what the Lord has in store for us in these next 2 years. Mom and Dad are such great examples to us, and it would be so good of us to follow in their footsteps. I know I look forward to the time Mark and I will go, since I never served a mission. We will miss seeing them and talking to them, but thank goodness for emails, we will be able to get updates on their progress. Speaking for our family, we will miss them greatly and I know the kids will too. My only hope is my Cady will remember them in 2 years since she is only 14 months old.

A Day of First's

Aimee's First Day at school

First Tooth lost all in the first 24 hours of being a Kindergartener

Well it has been longer then I'd like since my last post, but I've been real busy with family and company. In my next post I will post multiple slide shows, briefly telling whats been going on the last 2 months, but Today I wanted to Post since it was first day of school, and My sweet hunny's birthday, and he got to go to a company paid for Baseball game, so someone upstairs was looking out for him, even though he didn't get to share his exact day with his family, he did get to do what makes him the happiest, and thats baseball. I love you baby and 32 is pretty old, but you don't act it. I have also begun my first steps to a new me, and I know I have claimed changes before, but this time, I have actually done my homework and I have a friend that is really helpful in getting me to my goals. She is kicking my butt, but since I haven't had a good butt wuppin for awhile, Its not too bad. Besides, when did a little butt wuppin hurt anyone. Well we'll see I'll check back in about a month and give my stats hopefully they are worth sharing, but I am so sore right now, that I don't want to have to redo this again, I want this to be my last time I am sore for days on end.
