Alabama death toll now at 250... please pray for all the families.

April 27th, 2011 was a day we will all remember.  Not because we want to.  There are 162 deaths confirmed in the state of Alabama and officials think the number will be rising.  There are still search and rescue operations going on. Yesterday, I watched as a huge tornado went right  through Tuscaloosa and barely missed Chuck's parents house and his brother's house.  All we could do was watch in horror and pray.  Then, we watched as the same tornado went through Birmingham and the surrounding suburbs again very close to where my parents and my brother's live.  We watched and prayed and I was a basket of nerves. That night the storms reached our area, but thankfully went just to the north of us and we were spared.  We did use our "safe room" two times when we went under a tornado warning.  I was so proud of the boys as they knew exactly what to do and Maggie thought it was "fun" to wear her pink bike helmet. Join us in praye...

Ir stai,pavasaris arteja link pabaigos. visa savaite betoniniame Vilniuje kaitra,nebudinga balandziui. Kuria man sunkokai sekasi iskesti. O kaipgi,juk "nera ka apsirengti"! As dar nesu pasiruosusi isispirti i basutes ir atsisakyti svarkeliu! karstis gerai tik tuo atveju,jei esi gamtoje,ar prie juros,ar gali maudytis,arba spjauni i ji. Uztat jau galiu uzuosti laisve. Atooooostogas. Ir kaip as PAGALIAU susitvarkysiu savo kambari! nuo visu tu it dulkes skraidziojanciu popiergaliu. noriu taip!!!!

There is a high risk for a significant outbreak of Tornadoes in our area today.  It is a very ominous threat and the weather forecasters are calling it a "major tornado outbreak" and other words like "a well organized system" and "a great threat" and " a high confidence in the forecast".  In other words, be prepared to go to a safe place when you hear your NOAA WEATHER RADIO go off. We have gone over our family tornado plan with our children, checked to make sure we have batteries in our radios, flashlights are near, cell phones charged and helmets available.  We take this threat very seriously. We have personally seen what damage tornadoes can do and know that having a plan is wise. This is our safe room.  It is on the lowest level and in the center of our house.  It also has no windows which makes it even safer.   We have lined the helmets up in case we have to seek shelter and the boys each have a job in case we have to put our plan in actio...

As pasiilgau pointo. Kaip ir visos tos prabangos,kuria jis man suteikdavo-galimybe beveik anonimiskai islieti siela,kurti butas ir nebutas situacijas,visus tuos "ojeigu" ir "otada". Bendrai apie mane:  vis ieskau ieskau. tik laukiu,laukiu. ieskau ir laukiu. Pasiilgau fotokudros. Laiku,kai fotomenas buvo mazai kam suvokiamas. Pasiilgau SAVO tapybos. Kai plikos mergaites laikancios triusius,ar siamo dvynes su beveik padvesusia katyte ir itin raudonomis akimis atrode beprotiskai zavingos. Pasiilgau laiku,kai zinojau kas as,ir kas man patinka. Kai galejau save apibudinti. Kai turejau ideala-my dear K. ir kai mes abi kurdavome stebuklus. Pasiilgau savo niekad nenutrukstanciu ideju srauto. Ir kazkodel tada,kai suzinojau,jog is mudzieju tik as is tiesu megau all those creepy boys and stuff pasijutau neitiketinai nukrypusi nuo "musu" kurso. Dar pamenu,kai atsibudome viena paskutiniu vasaros rytu,isejome basomis per visdarzalia veja,ir pamatem geltonus vejo draskom...

Happy Easter ! We have had The Best Easter weekend so far.  The weather has been wonderful and Chuck's parents spent the weekend with us.  We celebrated Good Friday at our church Friday night with a beautiful service.  The boys sang with the Chapel choir and our adult choir sang too.  It was a very moving reminder of why we celebrate Easter - Christ's crucification and resurrection.   Hallelujah !   We spent Friday afternoon outside playing. Chuck and his dad worked all weekend on our square foot garden.  They put in a drip irrigation system that is amazing.  Both of them are brilliant, and it was so fun to watch them put their heads together on this project.   Hopefully, we'll have some big, juicy tomatoes soon ! Saturday afternoon, we got ready to go to our church's Easter egg hunt. Maggie really loved hunting for the eggs and she LOVED her Easter basket. She couldn't wait to pour all her eggs ou...
