We Loved "That's Amore"!

Good Morning soldiers!
What a difference eating has made for Robynn! She looked incredible...you could see that sparkle in her eye shining bright as ever! "That's Amore" was a wonderful event that Robynn and the rest of us enjoyed thoroughly. (except for the entire room singing me Happy Birthday;)
The food was GREAT, the service was IMPECCABLE and just the general vibe was AMAZING! It was a little embarrassing when we bought $100 worth of raffle tickets(all to win the Omelet Maker) and divided them up between all our kids and ended up winning 10 prizes...it seemed like we got everything EXCEPT the Omelet Maker;) Brady and Hailey were thrilled even when it was not a kid related prize. You would have thought Brady won the lottery with the excitement he showed running up to the stage with his tickets being waved over his head. It was really somethin! Robynn would put her head down in embarrassment and say "no more, that's enough". I just enjoyed the kids response and pondered taking them to Vegas!
Thanks to ALL who made it so EXCEPTIONAL!

Thank you all for the birthday wishes!
Thank you Robynn and Brian for making my day so special! Not only did Robynn make my favorite cake, she also made be the most precious bracelet with a heart disc that says "sister" and a round disc that reads "strength".
"My cup overflows"!

Pray for continued healing, strength and grace...

Pray On!

Thank you to the whole Goodell family and friends and everyone else for supporting the dinner. The members of the Moose Lodge thank everyone for coming out and helping to make the evening such a great success! The best part of the night was seeing the smile on Robynn's face!

Yes. God's Blessings are upon us. It seems almost simultaneously that Robynn and Jonah's "cups overflowed'. We have these stories of the Power of Prayer to share for generations. Jonah's family is trying not to get too high on the Good News but we have had several real positive days in a row. Jonah will be a month old this Wednesday and his parents are going to be able to hold him for the very first time any day now. Thank you Jesus and thank you Robynn's Army for all their prayers. We pray for Robynn and Jonah as it says in Colossians 4:2 "Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilent in it with thanksgiving." ....every day, every night,all the time.

Jonah's Uncle Clay and a proud member of Robynn's Army.

Hi Everyone!

I concur with Shelley - those Women of the Moose really know how to throw a shindig! I've gotta say, I don't think one can say they've partied until they do a sing-a-long of "That's Amore" with Christy Jourdan - a unique and fun experience for sure!

I was lucky enough to share special moments last week with the Goodell Clan thanks to our kids "graduating" from kindergarten together. Having Robynn there feeling pretty good and looking even better was such a treat for the rest of us moms :)

We will contiue to support you all every day and as for Baby Jonah - wow - it's been a month? Sweet baby prayers to you too!
