One day I decided since our kids were working SO HARD on their school work, that I'd surprise them with these for a little snack. They were thrilled. (Especially my boys! =)
Carla, please Thank your daughter for sharing this fun idea.~
~Mommy taking time to read a Bed time story to my squeaky clean "Babies" with some of our mess behind me. Notice both of their fingers in their mouth. =)~
I'm so TIRED, and the more we sort, pack, sell, etc. in this house, the more there seems to be that still needs done! =(
By this Monday evening, all of our furniture should be GONE from our house, including our BEDS!
So, please pray that God will give us God-Speed THIS WEEKEND, and that we can get the rest of our things sorted and packed, and the other things to give away out of the house too.
THANK YOU TONS for your prayers!!

Dusti LOVED your crabs. :-) I enjoy reading this family in Portugal's blog. I thought your kids would enjoy the father's latest 2 posts. He is an EXCELLENT writer. A beautiful family of 4 girls and a boy. I think that you may follow her blog already, but in case you haven't read it yet.
The kids were counting the days until you all get to the States, last evening, after praying for you all. :-) A little over a week of sleeping with no beds! Ugh!!!

Oh Heather, I feel your pain and stress and frustration! We are right THERE with our stuff now too! Just got back from being gone for over a month and I am feeling very overwhelmed looking at ALL our stuff and trying to figure out how we are going to get it all sorted, sold, given away, thrown out and packed! I can seriously empathize with you right now and I will be praying for you! So thankful for His grace and strenght that we can RELY on!
On a side note, we just returned from Pell City and met your sweet friends, the Shirks. Read how they helped us out of a tight spot while we were there on my latest post when you have time..lol! we enjoyed meeting them and they are looking forward to seeing u all soon ;o)
Thinking of you and saying a prayer daily! Cute snack--and maybe appropriate??? I think I'd be a little "crabby" in your shoes. ;)
Very cute!
Your Sister Laura
Dearest Heather,
I love those crab apple snacks! I will have to try them sometime.
Wow, I can't even imagine having to get rid of almost everything after living there for 7 years. I can imagine you are just sooooo tired of make decisions about what goes where. We are praying for you all. God has everything in HIS control and I know he is helping you, but I imagine it's just hard to keep going. And I KNOW I have no idea what all you are going through, so we'll just keep praying for you! Love and Prayers, Hannah Klunder
Very cute and I am sure that those little fellows delighted yours. Are you trying to tell us what is REALLY in your heart????? I feel so badly for you right now and wish that I could be there to help. I am praying and looking forward to being "here" for you as soon as you get off that plane. Remember we are bringing "Christmas" and will be very glad that this is the last of the 2012 Christmas I have to wrap. It all started in October and finally in March we finish . . . all because you kids have to be on the otherside of the earth. So if the airport authorities want to commit Daddy and I for bringing peppermint stripe packages to the airport in March - I will tell them that they have never been a Gram and Gramp. :-) Love, Moma

Oh Heather, your lil crabs are so cute! Kelsie is in bed, but I will be sure to show her your post. She will be so happy lol. On a side note, we talk about you guys often. In school we studied S. America and so my kids are familiar with the "Dickinson" name even though they've never met you. Well, the other day I heard Kelsie get an injury and then she said, "WOW, that hurt like the Dickinsons"! LOL :) Praying for you as I can't imagine how very TIRED you are! Hugs and prayers to you. Love you, Carla ps...thanks for your sweet comments on my blog :)
