Thank You for your prayers!

Thanks for all your prayers. My surgery went well. I am feeling good, but I am still sore from time to time. I still get pretty tired, but I am feeling a lot better. Although, surgery was pushed back until late into the evening on 10/29/09, I was able to get it done, and head home around 11:30pm. My doctor was great! Yeah, Dr. L! He had a full day too. He was late due to having to deliver a baby, do an emergency c-section, and then complete another surgery before mine. Anyhow, I am happy to report that I can touch my toes without pain, and I have been feeling different since the surgery. Hopefully, that is good news. My post-op appointment was good and Dr. L says that I should wait to try any other approaches for a few months. We will see what happens. We're hopeful that the surgery helped. We'll keep you posted. :)

Isaiah 49:16 and Isaiah 55:8 -11

"I'd never forget you—never. Look, I've written your names on the backs of my hands. " (Isaiah 49:16, The Message)

Sometimes, when I feel as though I don't matter, or that I have been forgotten, I remember this verse. I know God loves me and has my best interests in mind. Unfortunately, I am human, and prone to thinking I am forgotten when things don't happen when or how I think they should. Why does this happen, God? When is it my turn? Then I remember...

"I don't think the way you think. The way you work isn't the way I work." God's Decree: "For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think. Just as rain and snow descend from the skies and don't go back until they've watered the earth, Doing their work of making things grow and blossom, producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry, So will the words that come out of my mouth not come back empty-handed. They'll do the work I sent them to do, they'll complete the assignment I gave them. (Isaiah 55:8 -11 , The Message)

Wow! Isn't God good? Now the tricky part is being patient and waiting on God's perfect plan and perfect timing. Afterall, it is perfect! Knowing all; seeing all, God knows what's best for us. My prayer today is that we will rest in knowing God has our back and that He will never, ever fail us. Remembering to keep our hopes, dreams and heart's desires alive as we wait on God's timing to fulfill His promises. Afterall, He did place those desires in our hearts. We are not forgotten! We are loved! Keep looking up in anticipation.

Summer Trip to the Cabin at Shaver Lake, CA

We went to the Cabin at Shaver Lake, in Cali again. Labor Day weekend was beautiful! We enjoyed chillin' in the hammock, going out on the boat, lounging around the cabin. It was great and we really needed the break. It was nice to see Craig's family again. I will post some pictures as soon as we get copies from Craig's Mom. :)
P.S. Craig is still looking for a job. Please keep us in your prayers. I'm also a new PartyLite Consultant. Please check out my site and enjoy some great stuff. www.partylite.biz/heatherkleinhans Hope to hear from you soon! God bless!

Winter 2008

In December, we went to Sedona for the weekend, and then drove to Flagstafff to enjoy the scenery and winter weather. After that, we drove to California to spend time with Craig's family and visit the Cabin up at Shaver Lake. It was good to relax and enjoy some time off. Still praying for a new job for Craig. Please keep him in your prayers. Thanks!

Vegas in May 2009

We spent a weekend in May in Vegas. We had a great time with Craig's family. Caught a few shows, walked a ton, and visited a few infamous locations (M & M World, Hard Rock, etc.).

P.S. Craig's still looking for another job. Please keep us in your prayers.
