Its Been too long!!!!










So its been too long since I last posted anything, please forgive me life has been crazy for the Herrera Family. Eddie started working EMS with the same company and he works nights some weeks and days other weeks, he is really enjoying it. We still miss him like crazy when he isn't home but we know God has something good in store for our family this year and we are all so excited to see what it is, so please believe with us until it comes to pass. I have started a new adventure in my life selling Pampered Chef, I am loving the time I get away to be alone and the fact that its helping us make a little extra money not to mention I love the product. If your interested in hosting or party or just buying products please let me know. Ethan is doing really well in school he is one of the top kids in his class and has made a 4.0 GPA throughout the whole year he is really smart and does really well in school, we couldn't be more prouder of him, now if can only get him to stop talking so much in class...LOL. He has gotten so tall and has started playing soccer this year and is really good at it and he is loving it.
These are some pics from his first game, his team won 4-0 they all played really well as a team. Lauren is doing well and getting bigger every day. She is talking a lot and is now potty trained. She loves to explore and try and say new things she makes us laugh a lot. We love to sit back and just watch her doing new things. She is doing really well at school/daycare and has learned so much, she can sing her ABC's count to almost 10 with skipping a few numbers and sings lots of songs, the Happy Birthday song his her favorite she sings it all the time in fact she loves to sing has has a really cute voice maybe will have a famous singer in our family. She is very girlie and loves to play with her new kitchen, babies, purses and talk on her play phones. She has become a daddies girl and really misses him when he is away at work. Both of them are the best part of us, God has truly blessed us with beautiful smart kids. I look forward to watching them grow, and pray that God will bless them and use them for the good of his kingdom.



As a family we are active in our church, I am a leader of a ministries called Touch Team, we are a group of people who go out into our community and love on the people with free gifts such as cold water on a hot day, snow balls to kids at the local park and taking food to peoples homes. For the past year God has laid it on my heart to reach out to an apartment complex that has very low income families living it, in fact every time I drive by it I wonder how it is for those parents to have to live there with their children but then I watch the kids running and playing without a care in the world and it make me stop and think how awesome God is for helping those kids only see what they need to see to be happy and then it makes me grateful for all I have in my life. Any ways God has finally made it all come together and on April 4th we will be spending most of the day at this apartment complex feeding the families, playing games with the kids giving them snow cones and having moon bounce balloons for them to play on. I'm so excited to hang out with all of them and just love on them. God is so good and although it was hard waiting for a year to be able to reach out to them I know God's timing is always best.



We love and miss all of you and hope you can come and visit soon.
