After a month of fighting with my computer, it finally won. I have been borrowing computers to check emails and friends blogs, but it has been very hard to keep up.
The computer I am using now runs great, but is missing all of my pictures. Brent worked hard to save them, and will be transferring them soon. Brent spent many, many hours trying to unravel my mess, and thankfully was able to save all of my pictures. I love you babe. (Awwww... shucks. I love you too honey. [I'm editing this post and putting in the blog hop, so I couldn't resist])
Abby had a good weekend, lots of energy to giggle, run and play. Unfortunately, she was at the clinic today getting IV chemo and an exam. I am glad someone looked at her, since she has a cough that sounds a little junky. The plan is to increase her chemo if her blood work looks good. Please pray that she will handle the chemo being increased and for healing. Abby is supposed to go to school and dance class today and is worried she will miss them.
We had a fun incident at the hospital today. We were on the 10th floor (pediatric cancer) and they decided to have a FIRE DRILL. So Abby and I got to walk down 10 stories of stairs in the middle of every contagious and sick person in the entire hospital. Not sure a fire drill is worth killing people. It's not like those same patients will probably be there anyway when the next fire occurs.
My father is having surgery today, to remove the cancerous tissue. I wish I could be with both my dad an Abby. Please pray for a successful surgery and healing.
Blog Hop
Tonight's Blog Hop is "ask your readers a question and let them leave comments with their answers".
Michelle's Question: what you would like to see us do on our family blog? More pics? More stories? More parenting answers? More ????? What would make our blog more fun and interesting?
Brent's Question: What book would you like me to publish next from the ones I'm working on... "Bible Answers - Volume One & Two" or "The Mind of Brent: Enter at Your Own Risk?"

Michelle,
Praying for your dad tonight!
With love!
How about the "every day stuff" in your lives that makes one feel good about life since few things makes one feel good about life these days. Your recent Make A Wish family vacation was a blast to follow. The humor was, indeed, good medicine!
Financial advice for the difficult times we live in would be great, too! Perhaps, you can share how you "cut corners" yet you manage to be happy!!!
i typed in my name without leaving my question. sorry, here is my question WHY OH WHY can i not figure out how to do this. i want to blog hop, i signed up for mr. linky forever ago but just spent more time trying to figure it out. i am thinking i am missing the easy part. please re show me how to do it.
Michelle: Daily Family Happenings w/some photo/videos You're too interesting not to know about! =)
Brent: "The Mind of Brent Riggs - Enter at Your Own Risk" =D Ha I'd even PAY for that book!!!
Keeping your family in my prayers.
..
Brent's question.. The Mind of Brent ..Enter at your own Risk..that sounds fun.

Good morning~
I found you through the Blog Hop today and I am enjoying my visit!
I agree with Bobbie. I would also like to more financial advice. I am reading "Life Without Debt" and am very encouraged!
I am praying for your family!
Blessings~

I love to read about your family.
I think a few days ago you asked about parenting questions.
I am interested to know how you discuss adoption with your children. Also, when talking about poverty and giving back, how do you involve your children and talk to them about poverty and stuff (I assume you do because Abby said something about wanting a sibling.
Thanks.
I love stories about your day to day life, things that we can relate to. Also I'm all about financial tips. Where to cut back, what do you consider a splurge for yourself? Any guilty pleasures you can't go without? And how you got to the point where you are now. My husband and I adopted from Guatemala when we were 21 and are blessed with a 4 year old little girl. The financial burden is one we feel greatly so I'm hoping with improvements there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm new to your blog, so I can't say for certainty what I'd like to see more of. Pictures are always great!
As for books - anything to do with the Bible is awesomeness!!!
Hi Michelle, Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today & leaving a comment, much appreciated! And thanks for the continued prayers too; I can feel them!!! Yes, just 1 more surgery & I should be done! [ha, I said 3x now] Now need a 'L reducer' ;)
You take care & hope your holidays are memorable! ~Joni
Hi, Michelle~
Thank you for stopping by and for your kind words. I just wanted to let you know I put Abby's button up and I also put her on my prayer list as well!
Jesus said, "In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world!"
John 16:33
