Our 20th

Today is a very special day for Tonya and I. We have been married 20 years today. God has been great to us the entire time we have been married. As I look back I realize he has been there with us every step of the way. From my tour in Turkey, Fort Irwin and the tough times we had when I first got out of the Army. He has always been there. All I can do is praise Him. For me, it has been the best 20 years of my life. Tonya has given me 2 beautiful children and much happiness and love. I am truly looking forward to the next 20 years. May they be as good as the first. I love you Tonya with all my heart.

Getting Better

Just a quick update on what is going on. Tonya had her bone scan and we have not heard anything back yet. That is normally good news. After being out all day Thursday, she thought she would have to go back to the doctor. But, when she awoke on Friday, she said it was the best she have felt in the last 4 weeks. Today is Sunday and she got to go to church for the first time in 3 weeks. Thanks to all those that have prayed for her. God sure does take care of us. She got a call on Friday that she will start to work on Monday. Up until Friday, she would not have been able to do so. Kids are doing good. Speech has started for Austin and he is enjoying it. I am going to try to get a video of a performance and post to the blog. I am enjoying my break, although I am working on my next class. Hope to have all my papers for it done before the class starts. Well, that is all for now. Will try to keep up better.

Been awhile

It has been awhile since I had the chance to post. Work has been hectic, school, kids and school, and church have kept us busy. I will try to catch up. School for me is great. Finished my first term and have already started on my 2nd. Should have my masters by June. The kids are in the swing of things and speech is getting ready to start for Austin. That means Mondays and Thursday until March. He is really excited about it. Danae is trying to practice tennis 2 times a week. It will be easier now with speech. I will pick her up and her and I will practice. Tonya fell a couple of weeks ago and we finally found it to be a bruised nerve. It is taking some time but should heal. School has called her back to work, although it is only 2 days a week. We have called our new pastor to our church. His name is Brandon and he was well recieved. Well that is all for now. I will try to have some new pictures up soon.
