are getting along just fine; I can't wait to see their place. The Allen's got some lovely gifts and they have been busy nesting and momma just has to see their place! ;)
We did a bit of site seeing, after the wedding before dropping Kash off in M'ton. We had a great time then to M'ton and took the girl to Ponderosa for supper. She starts classes tomorrow; orientation day today (and she's texted me dozens of times). She had to go to the bank to let them know, she's a big girl now and needs to increase her limit allowable for withdrawls.

After 2 unsuccessful ERCP's here in F'ton and 1 more unsuccessful one in M'ton, I will finally have an MRCP tomorrow in F'ton at 1 pm. I'll have a little sedative to keep me calm; I'm a bit skiddish about closed in spaces so I'll appreciate your prayer. 
This is before ~ last year...
And praise the Lord this is after ~ this year!

He's a new Dad here but he knows just what it takes to be a great provider
Here, Dad looks on as Kasha finds her birthstone ring he picked out
and here, Dad gets to reap the benefits of his faithfulness in attendence at church services and in taking Kasha to music lessons (even when it hurt in more ways than one)
Relaxing at a camp ground in Moose Jaw, SK ~ we all had such a great time, didn't we?
And last year Dad (with the help of his heavenly Father) found us a house to call our own... 
These are some of a few of Kasha's grad pics; I always promised her a poofy dress but in light of Lance and Melissa's wedding, it was looking pretty gloomy. But Laura W (now married) sold Kash her dress for $100. We're sure this dress was about $400-500 ~ what a blessing to get it for such a deal... we are praising God for Laura! ;)
We went from all this to...
to this...
I don't think we'll see as much gray dirt in the house...
Thank you, Lord for a hard working husband, the money for the supplies, the great weather, etc...
Lord, you are too good to us! ♥
Cliff's new (second hand) toy; we got a really good deal. I had to beg him to buy this. He has wanted one forever and we've never been able to afford it. Okay, so we can't afford a new on, but a new to us one! ;)
He just doesn't seem to be able to stay away from it but I'm just as excited for him as he is! God is good! 
Maisy is petrified of the bike and Cliffton is trying to sooth her; she has herself all worked up into a tizzy! .JPG)
My mother's day gift from Lance; so pretty!.JPG)
my card hung with he and Melissa's invitation; I keep it there to remeind me to pray for them, daily...
And I got this single rose from my mother in law for nurses week; isn't she sweet! ♥
For momma from her boy (who has been a man for a long time ~ but always be my boy)! ♥ Though, this is a sign he's really ready for married life ~ keep up the good work, Son! 
Why do our kids have to grow up? 
I really don't want them to miss out on the great things God has in store for them as adults but I feel lonesome just thinking about the both of them gone...
Am I too selfish wanting them to stay small and needy? 
here is our water supply the last few days...
for flushing
This is a Christmas gift for which I'm truly thankful for along with electricity, of course...
yep, a new submersible pump with a price tag of $500
My happy husband ~ okay so he's not thrilled, but he is thankful for Frank, an older electrician neighbor who has been helping for 2 days... 
And finally, the CULPRIT/CULPRET...
It's an old submersible pump that fell down the well and couldn't be retrieved so the well drillers drilled on down thru to submerge a pump that could be accessible. Up til now, this was just a story we heard ~ now, there is truth to it...
