Persyns Family

Well again another month has gone by and it's almost Christmas.

I am not doing well at keeping up my blogs.

We celebrated my Dad's 75th Birthday on Dec. 8th. We daily Praise the Lord that he has let him stay with us these many months since his diagnoisis of cancer.

On the 15th we celebrated Chritopher's 29th birthday. Wow!!

Dave and I feel old!

Beth our eldest is expecting her fourth child in May. She is having a girl. Olivia Ann.

We had our first snow of the year on Monday, a whole 3". Last year at this time we already had 4'. There will be new pics on this blog after Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving !

Wow! I can't believe it is Thanksgiving.
We will be spending it at home and having Chris, Missy and her family
also my parents and my brother, Brent.
As we celebrate tomorrow I am reminded of all the Blessings and things
to be Thankful for.
I am Thankful first of all for my Salvation. I know that when I die I will
spend eternity with Christ.
Second, I am Thankful for my Wonderful Husband Dave.
Thirdly, I am Thankful for my children and my grandchildren. Sometimes the road is rough
but they are a joy.
Lastly, I am Thankful for our parents. They are a great Blessing to us.
There are many more Blessings, but these are foremost right now.
May you all have a Blessed Thanksgiving as you to Count your many Blessings.

Here's the pics of our home

and front yard.

Still Busy, Busy

Wow, it is hard to keep up on these blogs!
Time flies by!
Since I last wrote, we are going to be grandparents again to number 8.
Our eldest daughter, Beth is expecting number 4.
Yippeee!!!! Congratulations, daughter and son-in-law.

Dave has taken a Pastorate on a 6 month trial.
So we will be traveling up to a little town out of Sandpoint
every Sunday, and possibly Wednesdays.

My Dad is doing pretty well, but in a lot of pain. He has beat
the odds and made it past the 3 month mark. In fact since
diagnoised in April with Multiple Myeloma Cancer, he has made
it six months. Of course we know God is in Control and continues
to give Dad many days.

We are enjoying our new home and soon I will get pics up.

Until next time.

Busy, Busy

A lot has happened since I last posted.
We had our little country Fair the end of August. I had entered 62 items in crocheting and scrapbooking/greeting cards. Half of the items placed and my prize money was $100.00, not bad!
We also moved the end of August. We are buying a home in a manufactured home park. It puts us 2 doors down from Dave's folks and around the corner from mine. Perfect!
I am still watching LuLu 40 hours a week and teaching piano. I have 8 students now.
Today was our third recital. The students did a marvelous job, I am very proud of them!
If I can figure out how to put the tape on my blog I may try it. Check out the blog at:

Our fifth granddaughter had her 2nd birthday party today in Post Falls. Happy Birthday little Sahalie.
That's about it for now.
