Another week down....

First off I want to mention our be-u-ti-ful days here in North East Ok. Lovin it! Tho, I can't help but wonder what kind of winter we are in for.....We have just had some family drama here in the Allen household, ugh! Things are now starting to get back to normal tho. Why can't there be a web sight where you can type in whatever your delima is & bam, instant clarity!! I wish...... No book, no friends telling you about what they are going through w/ their children or did @ that age, nothing you have done in your past (or may still doing) can prepare you for raising teenagers.... Its a whole new ballgame baby. You know one of my saving grace's is that I daily pray that they won't get away w/ secret sin, that it will be revealed, & up to this point it seems to be working. My other saving grace is, I'm a realyyyy good bluffer. Shhhhhhh..... Tonight the twins have an up all night, very exciting.... 10 pm @ IP, then dodgeball @ another church in Tulsa, iceskating, then somewhere around 5 am they venture back this way for some bible study (how much they will really retain after all of that, only God knows). They are pumped! Chris went to the Dr. yesterday, we see his specialist next week @ the OU Med. Cntr. The new meds he's on are Beta Blockers @ really seem to be working, I'm so relieved, and ready to put this behind us. We got a new vehicle, its an 05 Escalade, the girls just love it!! It has the 2 dvd players & they want to go for drives all day/everyday. Kait's already making plans for when she gets her liscence & gets to take it out.... Right!! As we speek they are trying to get me to take them to Macy's for a "Huge Sale" this weekend, they really do need jeans tho. I'm going to think about it....Ok, well that's all for now but I will see ya back here soon, LA
