Happy New Year!

I hope everyone has a healthy, blessed 2010, and I hope we can stay connected. Family is one of God's gifts, and I am so thankful for each of you. Stay in touch. Have a wonderful 2010. (Can you believe it is really 2010?) Love, Karen and Kelley

Merry Christmas! It's been a busy time for us as I'm sure it has been for all of you. We all met at Korey's house for Thanksgiving this year. We had 8 adults and 7 children-6 and under. It was so much fun to be together. It reminded me of when we all met at Mom's with all our kids when they were little. That was before Janet had kids, and we still had 8 adults and 7 or 8 kids! We had Christmas with Kayci and Keith's families as well. We plan to go back to Korey and Amy's for Christmas. Mom and Dad are going too. It should be a little calmer this time. Praise God for healthy, active. loving families! We are so blessed! Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! Love, karen

We wish a precious Christmas and a richly blessed 2010 to all the "Burr Connection." Our Christmas photo with grandkids: Eli (almost 2), Dylan (6-1/2), and John David (8 months).

We love you all,

Paula and Dave

I say...Thanks to God from whom all blessings continue to flow...Patriece, I have been praying for your healing and trusting.......didn't realize I hadn't seen the blog for over a month....checked in this morning......Bless your heart!
From the beginning I didn't know any words in prayer for you because I knew you were in His will and that He was caring for you better than we could think to ask, so I just kept lifting you up.
I'm sure your sweet mother and daddy feel more blessed than any of us in your good news.

I saw Daddy last weekend, he is much better. He and Poncho had a good day at the ranch, he looks so much better.

Thanks to you who keep up with the blog....for Christmas I would like Monte to participate!!!
And I mean it.....you too, Suzi.

Update from Patriece

Here's an update from Patriece that she wrote to us this morning and said we could share:

I went to Dr. Block (medical, not naturapathic) in Tulsa yesterday. He was very pleased with how well I am doing. To have decreased my pain meds, to look good, and to be in almost no pain is miraculous and certainly not the norm. He praised the Lord, and so did we!! My chest x-rays showed improvement also and he said, "I believe the Lord is healing you." That is awesome to hear a doctor say that. He is working to adjust my supplements when he gets the blood report back. He also adjusted the hormone cream. :) The older chiropractor who was instrumental in getting my CT scan and was the first person to give me that particular report thought it was reasonable to think that I would not be around by this time of the year (3 months). Needless to say, last evening I went on a praise walk north of the house, but I find that words or "a million angels cannot express my gratitude" to Jesus. The doc said he was praying and knew others were, too. I said "yes!" That would be YOU!----Thanks for your prayers!!!--We all know this is "OUR God in whom we trust", doing this! It was nice (very unusual) when a doctor recognized that fact also.
Pray for Olivia (Trevor's 13-month-old). She has the swine flu. Diagnosed yesterday.

We are rejoicing in this encouraging news and trusting God completely!

Praise for Recovery

Daddy is doing well and finally getting back to normal. His energey level isn't back to normal, but we are confident it will. He has been blessed to hear from a lot of family and dear friends during the past two months.

Courtney's daughter, Frankie Jane (4), spent a couple of nights in the hospital with a high fever. It was scary at first. They determined she had a bacterial respiratory infection. She was able to
go home today.

We are very thankful for answered prayers.
