Monday morning and the sun is shining. Mazie and I will be off to Pennsylvania tomorrow so keep us in your prayers. My grandma is in the hospital again and so I think I need to get there to help my mom out even if its only for emotional support.I am anxious to go but not looking forward to the loooong ride. Keep me in your prayers. Also pray for Jay as he takes care of the house, Evie, Kolby, Tate and still work. Kolby is not feeling well so pray that it doesn' spread to anyone else. I hope to post pictures when I get back. blessings to everyone. Sharry

time???

To those who follow our blog? IS there anyone out there? Sorry that I have not written for such a long time. Let me catch you up. We finished January with a wonderful surprise party for Kolby's 18th birthday. We had a good turn out and the kids all seemed to have a good time. The week after that we had a Steelers Super Bowl Party with our friends. Sooooooooooooo happy that the Steelers won!!! Yea!! Kolby and Tae also invited a bunch of friends in for a last minute super bowl party. Then I opened up our home to ? ladies to celebrate the upcoming birth of a baby girl due any day now to Amanda and Sean. We had a nice turn out and I am thankful for Julie and her giving heart. Thanks for all the help!!! We also had the pleasure to watch Kolby wrestle his last high school match :-( The good news was he pinned his guy. Great job Kolby, I hope you heard your little sister yelling go Koooly and your older brother yell "that's my brother!!" We also got to see Tate wrestle and he won actually pinned his guy too!! What a night for the Holdren brothers. The pride we all had for those moments will stay in my heart. I am proud of both of you and I am proud at how your older brother and younger sisters yelled and cheered you both on!! Next I shed some tears as I saw my 2 youngest sons don tux's and clean up for Queen of Hearts dance. How handsome they both looked and how grown up too!! Now girls where were your turtle neck sweaters?? Just kidding. The girls were beautiful and I am glad that my friend Carolyn was able to shere in this special moment. Her sweet daughter Katie was stunning. So now I am getting ready to drive to Pennsylvania to spend some time with my mom. I think Mazie and I will leave Monday or Tuesday if the weather holds out. I sure do miss mom and I am anxious to see her and my grandma. If you think about it please pray for Mazie and I as we travel 9 1/2 hours. "story girl" doesn't mind riding but like her mom she can talk nonstop. I will fill you in later. blessings
