Lorie~ Thanks for emailing me the pics of the dog beds and the ones that you made turned out really cute. I have one more tree to put up and I think I'm done with Christmas decorating, unless Kelsey gets here and wants to do more. Your chicken soup looked really good, me and Steve need to make us some soon.
Good morning
Hello All, Hope everyone is off to a great day. We are cleaning house for Vonda's birthday party today. It was delayed due to a few things.I am also hosting my holiday work party here tomorrow. I made a pot of chicken soup yesterday and use a store bought roasted chicken. It gave it a nice smokey taste :) but it hit the spot. We are trying to get in the holiday spirit here.I don't have my tree up yet but hope to real soon.Does anyone have holiday pictures of Grandma and Grandpa that they can post? I love that I can blog from my phone and see their faces whenever I need a lift. Danny, Shawn has run into a few setbacks with the router he is working on.The program or computer is not working the right way. Think he is getting frustrated:( I haven't seen any pictures on here in a few days. Teresa I made a dog bed out of a old suitcase my friend got in Florida. It needs a few more finishings but happy with the way it turned out. What did you think of those table beds? I will try to post a picture of it. Miss hearing from you all. We are always praying for you Danny and Trish. Addy I hope you feel better soon! Wish I could bring you a few Carmello bars. They make it all better :)

Update on danny
Yesterday we went to UVA to see how things were progressing. Turns out the Sarcoma in his lung isn't responding at all to the chemo regimen he is currently on. After reviewing the scans, the lung nodule has grown instead of shrinking, so....back to square one. The oncologist is going to talk to the surgeon and determine whether he needs surgery now or change the chemo, do 2 rounds of it, re scan and see if ITS working and go from there. Also during the course of his scans they discovered he has bilateral pneumonia and started him on antibiotics. The whole day was a horrible mess. We didnt get in anywhere we were supposed to at the time we were supposed to. And it all seemed due to human error or carelessness is more the word.
Needless to say this wasn't what we had hoped for but we are still believing and praying for healing.
Continue to remember us in prayer,
Love and Prayers to all,
Trish

Lorie~ I am sorry that we missed you too. Lonnie and Steve must have had a full weekend planned, or maybe we should have planned a little better. So sorry about that. Next time, we will. Soon, Olivia will be able to talk to the girls online. Not sure if that will be good or bad:) Haha
I bet grandma and grandpa had the best anniversary and...no doubt the most peaceful one yet:) I miss them so much. So often I hear myself saying to my kids, "Grandma Treadway says..." Those are times when I am glad that I sound like my mom. No comments from the peanut factory, Danny!
Love you all!

Love you all!
Thank you Bobbie and Julie for your lovely stories about "mommie", I think it such a privilege to be part of the "Treadway" family and to be the daughter-in-law of the finest person I ever met. I love you all!
Know with all that mushy stuff out of the way and before I start to boo-hoo. I wanted to ask each and everyone of my sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews, to please send me and updated picture of you and your families. Since this is the old home place and this is still where we all gather I would love to have pictures of my entire family to put on display for everyone to see. I love this family and I'm very proud of my family and would just enjoy having your pictures for all to enjoy. Thank you for your help! God Bless each and everyone of you.
Thank you Julie,
And yes I believe we do know how very special Momma was. I've always thought she was different from other mothers. I don't know why, I didn't know other mothers! But something was unique and just drew you to her. Drew everyone to her! Now I know it was the "Jesus factor!" He has that drawing power! Praise the Lord! But as a little girl I knew she believed in a big God who we couldn't see, but she knew was real. She talked to Him and trusted him for everything.
I remember once she told a Blair or Encyclopedia salesman that she didn't have a medicine cabinet because she trusted her God to take care of her children. One of the kids "skinned" a leg or arm and came to her for care and she didn't have anything. I must have been sitting beside her or standing in the doorway. That is how that witness came about.
When I think of the busyness of my own life, I wonder at the miracle of her! How she stayed in His Presence, fought the devil on every side and kept her home and children going. All at once it seemed! What God requires He will equip us for! She truly lived her scripture from His Word that she claimed for her own "With God All Things Are Possible" Matt. 19:26. Children, let's learn a lesson here and keep claiming!!! I can see many grandchildren coming up the road!

A memory of your mom
I was drinking my coffee this morning when this memory surfaced.
I will write it as it came to me.
I recall a time when Vivian and I had one of our 'chats' during one of 'once a year' visits. She took my hands and said, "Julie, I see God in you more and more everytime I see you." Then she begin to share her life with me and this is what she said.
She shared that as God was transforming her from the life of sin to the life of following Jesus, many people around her thought she was going crazy and said so. She said the more she got to know God, the more she wanted to be like Him. Vivian said, "Julie, they just didn't understand. It hurt when they would say thngs, but I didn't understand what was happening to me and neither did they. I just knew that whatever I felt led to do I was going to do it."
(She continued her discourse with me).
As the transformation continued in her life, people begin to see Jesus in her and realized she ws becoming a different person in Christ. The road was bumpy for her and some didn't believe before they started to see Jesus was directing her and changing her life. She just stayed in His Presence,talking to Him in prayer and listening for His voice to speak to her. The transformation continued and God begin to use her more and more. That was when the burning started coming in her hands when God wanted her to pray for people she said. She said, "Julie, unless a kernal of corn fall into the ground and die, it won't produce ears of corn, will it? Glory to God, Julie! I'm willing to die so I can produce souls."
Now,I, Julie want to say this: Look what a beautiful butterfly your mother became in the Kingdom of God! What a heritage you have.......I hope you know how blessed you are to have had such a mother!
Well, this came to me and I just wanted to share. If any of you......her children are wanting to change more for Christ...maybe you are a bit...well..bewildered...know that your mom was too, but she stayed in His Presence anyway and look at what a blessing she was to so many.
I loved her and miss her and our 'chats'.
Well, I just wanted to share a memory with you.
God Bless,
Julie
