She wore a crown and played the role of Princess Dalaynee quite nicely. One thing I noticed....when the brother's are around, Auntie Laur is only needed for her camera..but that is as it should be. They sure all look like thier dad when their faces are together....he would be so proud. I'm hoping he can see them and smile. We missed him at the celebration. But God is good and we are blessed....look at the faces of those Nord kids and you'll know why. Note the pic of the sisters...I'm almost not the biggest one anymore. I'm at 49 lbs and counting...wanted to lose 50 by the reunion, looks like I'm gonna make it...I'm a work in progress.

How boring is that? I've lost almost 26 pounds! Yay. I can fit behind the wheel better, i'm not getting breathless walking from my car to my office and I can feel that I'm carrying around a lot less...so it's all good. Still hard with the eating and stuff...sometimes I'm still hungry, sometimes I'm too full...still trying to get a handle on it. But overall, I am good. Thanks everyone for the prayer support etc. It's appreciated and felt. Easter was good. No chocolate for me, darn it, but it was fun anyway. We also went out for Jaynie's birthday. She got a new car with an automatic door in the back. It was supposed to have a sensor, so after dinner we gathered around and tested it. Here are some pics of Susie and Sam, the only ones brave enough to try. ...and assorted pics of the dinner and Easter. Dalaynee sang with her clas in church that morning, so it was a good day. Hope it was for all of you. Ok, I promise I'll do better...and then when I've done that...I'll try to tackle Facebook....yikes!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327623874067649314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 196px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsWN6karwL9VaV338xbIZSoJUdagYpYD7eWzNK6gs-aS_QR87z9mxsXoF6rzKEgjQB51B-aqH-ollGCQRPWnb_0nlBDLDoF3b-oT9zbBXBcr3wIfNgcPv0s5vsp-uZP2GW14zs/s320/20090409_9_16.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327624615477102450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 263px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFlLFBoXLqayL_AJze7qUHKuO4gMtHn6Q5bendZbmppg57Ue_LRCTkx0Czws-sOEusDwuAiJEZ-7YkzvYkI_bhFWiWNI7epBrsuVVbT-O3uZk0Llh6P7dfBFdVGy6MJTsWsDMn/s320/20090412_9_59.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327624607526732130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 182px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhevCm1x16ZfLxsgXMHajrTB9RiLzklQmlqVTN_iXZCKPEDdHicUmt84cF2fRk2HdVJTGNeESnWJnCbLsHH9zNymS5t3wlyK35Gs7D1oQ0WWl29tKaCojAVVsPftvc91hZLUBag/s320/20090412_9_51.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327623874197194578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3_SnUQYi47zXN5jmXJyII01-RbqooXoh_rdTSBWGMO7qM3bm0xU9PwydexZJ2XurO2hyphenhyphenp5m-IUH6rWtB1pb_E_H8I4TCdlDQIHr4lUtFJA2CCj_0CJS7Uyn5X8nXzKK6iMWBF/s320/20090409_9_18.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327623866573332018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_diJlokz4d2c7w_UFk-83Yr6Vl3-LO-Ef26ABrNmU2-69FCtVYzzlZFwZwgH-R3uN6wkYnc_EKo4yFtC81QxkPHlD5aMq98RlrjC2dhr2eMLIWUHgwf8gw3mHxtayC6ILB1K4/s320/20090409_9_3.JPG" border="0" />

It's very strange to take 1 or 2 bites of something and be so full. I'm still wrapping my brain around the whole thing. I know I've lost some, not sure how much. I go to the dr tomorrow, so I'll let you know. This last weekend we sojourned to Hanford to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Uncle Case and Aunt Birdie. It was great to catch up with thier branch of the family. There were 8 uncles and thier mates in attendance. As a group we just migrated from someones house to a restaurant to church and then to someones house. They uncles played at Uncle Mart's church on Sunday night. It was a jam-packed weekend, but lots of fun...here are some of the photos. Thanks to everyone who sent an encouraging email while I was recovering....it was greatly appreciated. I'll keep you updated with the transformation....such as it is....K? <div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316931296383411042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 205px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 157px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidY2v31fbXtT4B-LDfYKFxNmUWUWa90SgpK856HdtetOkR1VKjM_Oqkm1axPGEQp3g3w3cN02omXWacdFBmxWUV8tQV0sUl57x6Pljea5w7GM28MTfhqd9ranVP6wytGpmu9dI/s320/20090322_9_51.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316929213794053602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 198px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrjKsrpcgglJwLK-9p8NScfGDS6QNfsd9-Qm9HBFCKDfs6irvTf7DU3wJe3SAzofxXgcSVCaJ2_lIcseWUtParALANYJsfTY5IFFyuuHGK0O3vHTwlvTqYYmdVIlviK2kjDovE/s320/20090321_9_16.JPG" border="0" /> <strong> Jim or John...whatever..</strong></div><div> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316931292073618530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 206px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 136px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDjXDP0w_xja9zyyZAXnRLZd315F0tAUsdumrSnj2FMfCT4dxHsg5icRNIR1fh70MaLtGT91Cs_5fLhQfav-hrf8QW9ghoUWhxhtHpdiKzFer7jwqzP-2dmj6pBwuFJHOvEk7d/s320/20090322_9_38.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316931296814505490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 187px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 143px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8MjIgKYGEAKI9AFaKAmssbM6Vbg85fZYnu1qNgZjWQjcfJOOx34o2Rc_5uLdKiR0212gtoHD7O9OnyQQcyikM-S3oXKIgPkJQ_EI_RSHLPw6uEQvzrAY8b_MrpWSEybPF8Nej/s320/20090322_9_57.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

<div>....so the deal was...Jayne would buy a laptop, I would pay for half and we would share it. I'd use it at my house, cuz I don't have a computer at home and she would use it on vacations etc. I think I touched the keyboard once. It never got to my house. Jayne and Layne are digging having 2 computers in the house...so, suffice to say, the deal is off. So, I bought a MAC book. I am not sure I know what I'm doing, but I'll learn it I guess.

The shoes were recovered, which is good, cuz it was cold and the girls were wearing flip flops. We had a wonderful time with the family...the cousins even bumped up thier Christmas party so that we could be there...what a gracious thing that was to do. There are many more pics to follow...but here are the faces from my Thanksgiving...that I am giving thanks for this year...thanks cousins....we do have fun, don't we?<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276139903731535602" style="DISPLAY: block;

<div>She gets mad when I call her that...I mean really upset...so I don't do it...very often. On Saturday, I had her with me because Jaynie worked in Compton all day. She fell asleep in the back seat and I couldn't get a hold of Jayne on her cell, so I headed for church. Laynie woke up we got out of the car. Jayne's car was there, but she wasn't around. Laynie says I know we'll never find her again..we have to look for her....we better split up. Better split up???...who are we Starksy and Hutch?</div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-654393618354364592008-11-10T20:28:00.000-08:002008-11-10T20:42:21.460-08:00I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry....<div>

<div>We went to dinner to celebrate Danny's birthday and Bill's birthday and Bill and Susie anniversary. There are pictures to follow...still on the camera, I'm ashamed of myself!. Anywhoo...we went to a place called Ruby's..kind of a fifties diner type joint. They have cherry cokes that are really good. Cal was able to tie the stem of one of his cherries in a knot with his tongue. I said, that talent is gonna make you very popular with the girls ( am i right or am i wrong?) Jayne says, Lauri, don't say that to your 16 year old nephew...Calvin, who still had the stem in his mouth, held up 7 fingers...Jayne doesn't miss a beat..."i mean your 17 year old nephew"......she can't tell me what to do, she doesn't even know how old Calvin is! It was a fun evening...I promise pictures...really I do!</div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-91770750608928141392008-10-08T17:07:00.000-07:002008-10-08T17:11:11.506-07:00....ain't he cute?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE5mZea0da48pnAjaCrFMq6Qj4w7I5UmjzcqKXJuIphczxbsrD7GeHgCA8QIGYZGsb_mWgrmLEuw9nCe-9FOryFqrgvuWRsrvvbMD2NnE7OKTHiV1Q7LoxpYS_A8OL-GVEKYgW/s1600-h/calvin-prom.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254940003992085650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE5mZea0da48pnAjaCrFMq6Qj4w7I5UmjzcqKXJuIphczxbsrD7GeHgCA8QIGYZGsb_mWgrmLEuw9nCe-9FOryFqrgvuWRsrvvbMD2NnE7OKTHiV1Q7LoxpYS_A8OL-GVEKYgW/s400/calvin-prom.jpg" border="0" /></a>
<div>Here's some pics I got from Danny today.....you'll see from the one where he is a little younger he hasn't changed a bit....mom and dalaynee and jayne are in havasu having a great time. there are times of remembering jeff too, which is good for them. the boys are there too, so it's good for them all to be together...but life here is sure quiet...</div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-60109318634931675662008-10-02T16:45:00.000-07:002008-10-02T16:51:32.332-07:00Just a quick noteI went to the doctor this morning and for the first time in a long time, I feel like this is really gonna happen. I met the surgeon. I liked her a lot. She has a very firm handshake. She's done 1700 of these things, so that makes be feel pretty good. They have sent in a request for re-autorization, cuz mine runs out in January, but the dr. told me that all my test results should still be valid, thank goodness...I don't want to do that heart speeding up test thing again! She also told me that once they get the authorization, they'll schedule the surgery and meanwhile, I have to lose as much weight as I can....so there is a light at the end of the gastric bypass tunnell, oh joy.
Have a great weekend y'all ...pray for Jayne, first time to Lake Havasu without Jeff. We just seemed to miss him an extra lot this week...I couldn't get to sleep last night, had like a slide show of the past year just going through my head....but pray for Jayne..and Drew and Zack and Laynee. It's gonna be hard for all of them. Thanks you guys, you are the best...but you already know that, right?laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-76838160172000162362008-09-30T16:15:00.000-07:002008-09-30T16:29:53.897-07:00and here's the latest on the surgery....<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwF1wUCVfKsm6xo3WvXKn7THRvS5QHHWIbbPly7hKuj9H_NA49DVFNxh_SmwWEBamFfEuFLs7GgfozE1xV2l9mMVby3yo60lWiBlPmB2wxE7BTYaNg6fh0KcmQOG-hmth6ysbs/s1600-h/Exasperated_Man.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5251960624101853922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="295" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwF1wUCVfKsm6xo3WvXKn7THRvS5QHHWIbbPly7hKuj9H_NA49DVFNxh_SmwWEBamFfEuFLs7GgfozE1xV2l9mMVby3yo60lWiBlPmB2wxE7BTYaNg6fh0KcmQOG-hmth6ysbs/s400/Exasperated_Man.jpg" width="233" border="0" /></a>
<div>Last Sunday, i get a message from the surgeons office..."lauri, are you still interested in the surgery"! Idiots. I called them back and said yes, but I'm trying to lose 50 pounds! So on Monday I spoke to another lady who said, well, you don't weigh over 500 pounds do you? I looked down and said, uh no, I don't. She says, ok, with your BMI(mass body index) you would probably have to lose about 15-20 and then we could get your surgery done. WHAT!?! So, long story short, and less cussing, I have an appt with the surgeon on Thursday. They gave me a website for a liquid diet, which I sent for already, cuz it's way more affordable...and then hopefully we will get this show on the road! I keep wondering what God wants me to learn here, I can't figure it out. But I hope I've learned it cuz I am ready to get this done already! I'll let you know what happens after Thursday.....keep praying!</div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-31819330412449324902008-09-30T16:12:00.000-07:002008-09-30T16:15:04.155-07:00...oh yeah, Cal's cast<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq144Utm8k4V2Tx41J-yjlirBEMKbIyspHGotEpusVVgiNIOcTQGRQ2u3MB1rp_7bfVmQmwKn4nRaXRljQJLHlAcEpfnaHtwowS6jqHNA72Ue1JLkPPnzDHt6xKYxKUZv4BuOU/s1600-h/20080607_9_199.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5251956789015584386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="440" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq144Utm8k4V2Tx41J-yjlirBEMKbIyspHGotEpusVVgiNIOcTQGRQ2u3MB1rp_7bfVmQmwKn4nRaXRljQJLHlAcEpfnaHtwowS6jqHNA72Ue1JLkPPnzDHt6xKYxKUZv4BuOU/s400/20080607_9_199.JPG" width="331" border="0" /></a>

<div><span style="color:#33ffff;">Well, it started darn early, I'll have you know. Our church went on another Compton workday. The coordinator asked me to be here at 6 a.m. to take pictures of the loading of the trucks etc. Jayne is kind of her volunteer assistant, so she had to be here at 5. I took Sam along to help take pictures and Dalaynee wanted to go if Sam was going, so they both stayed "over the night" at Mom's and I picked them up (bright eyed and bushy tailed) at 5:30 a.m. We drove to 7 different sites (there were 31 altogether) and took shots of people working etc. Sam was a little nervos cuz we took my car and red is a Crip gang color, who knew. We survived. Then I took a group shot with the home owner. Laynee thought she should probably be in every shot...so here's a bunch of Emmanuelights, a Compton resident, and Dalaynee Jo sitting in the front row. On Sunday I went to all the services (3 of them) and took pictures because we welcomed 21 new partners in mission and about 10 kids from our Life Hurts, God Heals (a Celebrate Recovery for teens) were baptized. It was a great day...but somewhere, somehow, I want triple-credit for time served or something, cuz 3 sermons in one day is 2 too many! I took over 500 pics in the weekend...so for this photography nut, it was a good time!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5251954325514010258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 569px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 199px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="199" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVkETWKDlNl7tftfTmcMoLdk2E_SZlpqsqd294mXCx9I3I_mjaBG0wU1tFi0nKSSL6U7f2ouJl0NtRPy7fuLe6hgCo8YlnM2NDScLwvRPWK_n-k66rVINxwVlKjzDD5PYz_gXB/s400/Picture1.jpg" width="535" border="0" /></span></div>

<div align="justify"><strong><em>Cal broke his hand in football the other day. He's outta football for 6 weeks and has a cast up to his elbow. However, on a lighter note, he does have a date for homecoming. He won't be able to put his arm around her without possibly giving her a concussion, but hey a date is a date, right? Last weekend, when Cal wasn't there, we squeezed the information out of Samuel. He made us swear to secrecy. Then that night, when we met for dinner for the birthdays, Sam slid in next to me and said, don't say anything about the girl, but he might tell you about it anyway, but don't let on that you heard anything from me. So, being the sneaky and manipulative aunt that I am, I grabbed Cal's cell phone and started going through the address book...asking him about several girl's name listed...were they friends, something more, didja ever kiss her etc. Finally, I got to the S's. There it was, the name I was looking for...I said, Cal, what about this Sara chick? His face got all red. Well, actually, he says, I just asked her to homecoming. The table erupted with shock and suprise (just like Sam wanted us to)...I looked over at Sam....he was smiling, just a little bit. Typical Van Hofwegen. So, anyway, Calvin Daniel has a date...and a cast for his first homecoming....life is good, huh?</em></strong></div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32037857.post-59028374913316018462008-09-24T14:31:00.000-07:002008-09-24T14:47:42.036-07:00D and D<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKF6S6OJiY7of7S3NQU3B2N-CJuZE_ju0oD4ZhqSzpqtHwExQI7VNNKu9W4FkX5sX6Zck362s0h7jN0x4y-x1wRYDf8lKnIyI0N8LfSzRmnk9dH8XSI1-vCi7hvPjOCrNvh6rZ/s1600-h/dog.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249707431682004082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKF6S6OJiY7of7S3NQU3B2N-CJuZE_ju0oD4ZhqSzpqtHwExQI7VNNKu9W4FkX5sX6Zck362s0h7jN0x4y-x1wRYDf8lKnIyI0N8LfSzRmnk9dH8XSI1-vCi7hvPjOCrNvh6rZ/s400/dog.jpg" border="0" /></a> Dalaynee has a great little dog tradition already. When she comes home from school she runs to the back door to let Dayzee in. She puts her hand on the door knob and says to Jayne, "mama, get ready for the exciting part". Then she lets in the dog which proceeds to lick her from head to toe...and she loves every minute of it.

One night when she was spending time with me in my office while Jayne went to a meeting, one of my co-workers came in. Laynee said, "hey, did you know my dad died?" When my friend said yes and we miss him, Laynee said, "well we would rather he lived with Jesus so he can be all better and if he lived with us, he would have to be sick some more". My friend asked her what she thought he was doing in heaven with Jesus...."well, said my dear niece, "I think he is fishing and watching fireworks and watching me at my dance receital". Sounds about right to me. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249707770094118178" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOHk6Ve5diZg2c-oA-mtJ75fd02s5PGEq_PiMGKFhwL1WCIqOtltS7SduDBFWzT7du2gUZ5JtokmdrkQNnPO2WgzcCNrSGTQFypxq_wlbgF_O0aTIgT9m0ytgrIW9gVafyP96d/s400/20080510_9_3.JPG" border="0" /></div>laurihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05268184950912618141noreply@blogger.com3
