Good evening.

Please pray for David~~~he is sick. He woke up yesterday with a sore throat. He sucked on some throat drops all day, and we were hoping he would feel better today. Well, not so much. He feels worse today. He has a sore throat, is achy all over, and is running a fever. His fever is up to 101.5, and we are not sure if we should call the doctor or not. We are in uncharted waters. We knew what to do when he was in treatment; we would have called the doctor (oncologist) by now!! But now that he is no longer in treatment, we aren't sure what the 'protocol' is. Please pray that he feels better soon. It sucks that just as his Christmas vacation is starting he gets sick!! We really don't want him to be sick for Christmas, of course. Thanks. Actually, my other son needs prayers, too. Jeremy is also sick! And he just started his new job, so he really can't call in sick! Please pray for my family. Thank you so much.

Otherwise, things are going ok around here. We had 9 inches of snow on Friday and Saturday. Then, in typical northern Nevada style, it rained all day today and melted most of the snow! Then tonight it started to snow again! So, we have a white ground again. We were soooooo loving the 9 inches of snow!! We are praying that we have the same thing on Christmas Eve, and a white Christmas. That would be so cool. But, we will see.

We can't believe Christmas is 6 days away. It is totally empty under our tree, but that is ok. Christmas isn't about the presents, anyway. Christmas is about celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And that is what we will do. And we are just so thankful that David is not in the hospital this year. Christmas of 2007 we spent in the hospital with David receiving chemo!! This will be a better year that way, that's for sure! It just seems so strange that this year is almost over. Less than 2 weeks left of 2010!! I mean, where has this year gone? It sure has screamed by!!

Again, please pray for David and Jeremy. Please pray that they both feel better soon. Please pray that David's fever goes away. Please pray that Lucy doesn't get sick! Thank you so much. Thank you for checking in. God bless you all. We love you.
