The Feitner Adventure: Growth

WELCOME

I'm a full-time wife and mom of two adorable boys. When I'm not busy trying to keep up with them I enjoy photography, traveling, planning parties and a little bit of reading.

In February of 2008 I was diagnosed with an incurable terminal lung illness, though God promised me a full and complete healing. While we wait for His timing, we're taking it one day at a time, and standing in awe of how God's using all of this for His glory. The tough road we've traveled has given us a new perspective on the fragility of life. Memories are more important to us than ever before. The goal of this blog is to share some of our family life - the ups and downs, the joys and probably some of the pains as well. It's mostly meant as a personal journal of sorts, but you're welcome to share in it. We'd like to take this opportunity to say ...

WELCOME TO THE FEITNER ADVENTURE!

(We had a tree cut down this week because half of the root ball was exposed ... BONUS POINTS if you can notice which one! Take a close look at those last two photos.)

So ..... Did you notice which tree we cut down? It was a trick question I guess. In the photo it looks like two trees, but technically they came out of the same root system. I like it better since it's gone - we have a much better view of that beautiful helicopter tree. The tree company left their mark in the stump. What a cool idea - talk about a calling card!

And now we're one step closer to that fire pit we both want. The guy said that if Aaron splits the wood, then some of it should be ready in about a month to use (if the fire's hot). (Excuse Harrison. One doesn't always look one's best while eating an ice cream cone.)
