hello web world

we're on a bit of a very unexpected break.

pray for us, j's father passed away friday so we hopped in the car on saturday and it's been a whirlwind since. it's obviously a sad time for him and us and the family but we're doing ok now that the big stuff is over. oh, and a huge thank you for all the kind emails from those who already knew.

and pray for cousin jen! although i don't have details, baby maddy was born this past sunday so jen's a new mom with lots and lots of new responsibilties.

ok, i'll be back to the norm soon. eh, probably not.

  1. I'm so sorry about your father in law Cheri. We didn't find out until yesterday afternoon, or Rich would have gone to the funeral. He has fond memories of J's dad from the basketball team.

    We're praying for you.

    Sorry to hear about your father-in-law. Was it sudden or had he been sick? I also lost my grandpa this weekend.
    Congrats to Jen! Can't wait to hear details. Every birth story is amazing-what little miracles each one is.
    I'll be praying for your family and also the new mommy.
