Thank you Firefighters for your very, very, hard work, it is paying off for Colorado!

On facebook today... so fitting!

These men gave their all to save our precious state, and just saying Thank You, does not seem enough.

Here is today's totals for the fires that remain to date here.

Waldo Canyon Fire(Colorado Springs) is 70 % contained. *

High Park ( Fort Collins) is 100 % PTL.

Pine Ridge (our fire near Debeque) 90%.

Little Sand (near Pagosa Springs) 40%.

Weber ( near Mancos) 85 %. *

Treasure (Leadville) 100% PTL.

Lightner (Durango) 80%. *

Flagstaff ( SW of Boulder) 90 %.

Springer (Lake George) 100% PTL. *

Sunrise Mine (Paradox) 100%. *

* = Human caused.

The biggest praise for our family is my sister and family are back in their home in Mountain Shadows subdivision in Colorado Springs!  Thank you Lord and Firefighters!

We continue to pray for complete containment. Also for our sister states that are all fighting fires of their own. So many of them, and they all have losses that we need to pray for.

Again, thanks you so much for your service firefights, bless you! Thank you blog friends for your prayers. You indeed are a God-send blessing.

Very thankful for you!

Ma and Pa

Malakhi is here!

We got the call that Tanya would be induced yesterday at 6pm, so this grandma had to get busy and finish the felt booties she was making.

I found the design on Pinterst here. The theme is my own and I cut the pattern down 1/4 inch all the way around. I made the ties by braiding 3 strands of the embrodery thread. They are tiny and cute.  Mom and Dad loved them. I also had a ball making them.

Now for the good part.

Malakhi came into the world at 12:23 pm today. He weighed 7 pounds 1 ounce and was 20 inches long. And this great grandpa and grandma thinks he is precious.  He has a few problems they are monitoring tonight, but we know all will turn out well. God is an awsome God.

Here is our daughter Sherry (34) holding her Grandson. They look like a pretty happy pair to me!

So are G (Great grand) Ma and G-Pa!
