April Sunday In Spring WI Style & A Prayer Request Update & A Pretty Please Plea

This is what Spring looks like.
Sadly, that is NOT what Spring looks
like in Wisconsin.
Now...You DO remember that
we live by the bay?
Well....here is what we are seeing today.
That is snow along the rocks and on the sand.
Are  you feeling cold yet?
Cold on land and cold in the air-
Sigh....
Well, while I am dreaming of someplace like this...
I want to give you a quick update.
on my friend, Gert. 
You can read the original prayer request(here)
Here are some of her own words from the
rehab center:
Today, they had me walking and I was so impressed with 
how good I did,compared to how far I walked (and how I
walked) when I was in the hospital, then I remembered all those
thoughts and  PRAYERS everyone from Diana's blog have 
been sending me.  I want to THANK every one for
your love and  concern!
You see, prayers really do  make a difference.

And...
One more quick little request.
If you have a moment-pop by and vote for
my grandson- Big Boy E again
in the contest.
He is moving up the ladder!!!
He was in the 300's and is now in the mid 100's.
Every VOTE counts.
(you do have to type in some
little word/phrase they give you
when you hit vote)
Just think- He could be your future
grandson-in-law!
THEN WE would be RELATED!
What do you mean you're not 
going to vote now?
Pfffffffft!

  6. He could be my future grandson in law, but I don't think you want him moving way down here, and I definitely don't want my girls moving way up there and we're already sisters in Christ so that's just going to have to be good enough for now. LOL And - you just reminded me of one of the positives of my ki8ds moving to Texas. They're not in a military town so maybe those girls won't marry anyone who is going to haul them all the way across the country and around the world. :-)

  7. We are having cooler weather here now, though we do have lots of springtime flowers.

    Yes, I continue to offer prayers for Gert.

    I'll be sure to vote for that precious grandson of yours. Will they permit me to vote twice?

  9. It's been colder than normal here too, Diana. At least 20 degrees, brr! I am so ready to be on that tropical beach! So glad to hear that your friend Gert is progressing. I already voted for your little cutie patootie! Maybe in about 20 years I can introduce my little great niece to him??!! Then you and I can really be related!

  23. No snow here. The sun is shining but it is cold and windy. I have cast my vote again!

  24. I've got to be honest, i'm more inclined to like the cold and wet days than the hot and dry. I can't be out in the sun long so I long for short sunny days most times. I love the sky photo you took.. something very hmmmm.... almost secretive... like the sky has a thing to say about the night. Very pretty. That kid, oh my gosh... he's cute. Cuddle him quick. Hugs. Tammy

  43. Warning...I think spring is skipping us this year in Wisconsin! I saw snow flakes again today. Hey at least we saw blue skies yesterday! Spring tried to come in. lol. I am so glad that your friend is doing better. Prayers will continue for her recovery.

  44. The weather here today was absolutely beautiful. It was about 72, with blue sky, cotton clouds, and warm sun.

    Also, I voted for that little rascal :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. It amazes me how wildly different the weather is across the country right now - and not in a good way.

    I will keep your friend Gert in my prayers and now I am heading over to vote for your little grandson. He would be much too old for my granddaughter because she doesn't even exist yet- not even a twinkle in the eye.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Oh Diana, I so hope you see spring soon. So thrilled to read such good news from Gert. She has an amazing smile. I voted for your darling cutie pie. He is going to break hearts one day.
    Have a great week.

  55. Your grandson is adorable, Diana. Prayers being sent to your friend - so glad to hear they are working.

    The cold doesn't want to leave, it seems. My goodness, it's almost the end of April and we still have frost here at night! I didn't bring enough warm clothes with me.
