Abigail Leaves The Hospital

I made it back to Louisiana on Thursday night to spend a little time with Abigail and Ashley in the hospital. I think that I forgot just how small a new born baby is. She is so adorable. I just sat there holding and admiring her. Gina spent the Thursday night at the hospital with Ashley and Abigail. My job for Friday morning was to get the car seat installed in the car and drive back to the hospital to pick both of them up. Richard, Ashley’s father and I were driving them home while Cathy, Ashley’s mom and Gina followed us. We made it safely to the house and I got a lot more time holding my first grandchild. Enjoy the pictures of Abigail.

Abigail received a very special gift from Mike and Janna on Saturday. Janna is extremely talented in creating quilting masterpieces. She stated in her blog that this quilt was from a pattern that her grandmother used to quilt. Gina and I were so amazed at how beautiful it came out. For Abigail we thank you very much Janna.

A very beautiful handmade baby quilt

 

Abigail will always know who gave this to her

Also, this past week Shane and Nicole, our oldest daughter and SIL received word that their purchase agreement on their new house was accepted. The house is beautiful. Congratulations to both of you!!

Ashley, our doctor in the family received word this week that she is moving to Hackensack, New Jersey to continue her work in becoming a medical doctor. Congratulations to her too!!

We heard from Thomas and he might be flying home sometime at the end of this month for a few days. He still doesn’t know for sure but he really wants to see his daughter.

Most of you are aware that last year Gina and I started a cabin for Mike & Pat (Mom & Pop’s) in their pole barn in South Dakota last year. Last week they had the cabinets and flooring installed and it looks great!! It’s hard to believe how far their pole barn has come.  Mom you did a great job selecting the cabinets and flooring.

Living room and kitchen, It looks beautiful!!

I left our house Sunday morning in our truck pulling our home making my way to Brookshire, Texas.  I arrived a little after three o'clock at West Houston Campground. It will be parked there while I continue working in Houston. I haven’t moved our home since I parked it at our house in March. It felt great driving the truck again. It felt even better sleeping in my own bed instead of a hotel’s bed.

These past five days have been busy.  But we knew our time in Louisiana this year would be fast paced. It’s hard to believe that it’s already August. Time is moving fast and before we know it, it will be Thanksgiving. It has been a very blessed year for our family and we’ll have a lot to give thanks for.

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Abigail Faith Thurston, Our First Grandchild

Yesterday was a wonderful day. We received our first grandchild. Abigail Faith Thurston was born at 1:16 p.m. weighing in at 7 lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long with a full head of black hair. Both she and Ashley are doing great. Thomas, a Marine is deployed in the Middle East called just as Ashley was being taken into the delivery room. He didn’t get to see his child being born. However, he got to hear play by play and he was able to hear her first sounds. I think he might have even cried just a little with joy. He’ll be home soon and will get to see her. Thomas and Ashley could not have planned it any better. Gina and I are extremely happy now that we are officially GiGi and Pop’s.

Here are a few pictures of Ms. Abigail Faith

What a beautiful face

Last weekend if you read Mike & Janna’s blog then you know I flew up to Montana and purchased their jeep. I will tell you that it was a long drive in a soft top jeep. However, I left Montana at one o’clock in the afternoon and arrived at our house in Louisiana a little after two a.m. Saturday morning. As I stated in our previous entry we have decided to keep our truck and trailer. We bought the jeep to tow behind the trailer which we believe will enhance our travel experience tremendously.

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Yes, We Are Still Alive

I know it has been a long time since I last posted a blog entry. All I can say is WOW, how time flies. I keep getting emails and comments inquiring about how Gina and I are doing. We are both doing great. I figured I really needed to post an update to our blog. We or really I have been considering whether or not to keep writing our blog since I have went back to work. Writing the blog was so much easier to keep up when we were traveling but now that I am back working and living out of a hotel four days a week and traveling back and forth between Houston, Texas and our house in Louisiana there just doesn’t seem to be any time left to write. I apologize to everyone that has been so faithful in reading our blog the past two years. I will try to do my best in the future to continue posting.

Our last blog title was “Gina is recovering and Friends Visit”. That seems like so long ago but Gina has recovered from her surgery and is doing GREAT!!! All Praise goes to Our Father .
Okay, besides going back to work a big part of my time has been consumed with searching for a motorhome. As I had posted before we decided to sell our truck and trailer and switch to a motorhome. Well, after some very lengthy discussions we finally agreed that I was the one that wanted the motorhome and Gina was just going along with that decision. However, she loves me and knew how much stress I put on myself while carrying a four wheeler on the back of the trailer. So with that I say thank you sweetheart for giving me all of your support and willing to sell your dream trailer. I had also said that I would not tow a car behind the trailer either but, I’m going to try that too once I have everything setup to do it safely. (I didn’t say legally). My only desire is that I will not let it stress me out.

Our truck and trailer has set at our house for the past four months and every time I see it I miss it and the constant change of hotel beds gets me to missing it even more. So with that said we are moving our truck and trailer to Katy, Texas on July 31st. Of course, Gina had just about emptied out the trailer so now we have to put everything back in it which will take her a few days.

Gina with her Daughters in Grenada

Now that you know our current status I’ll try to give a broad overview of the past two and a half months. Gina enjoyed her recovery down in Grenada and spending time with her daughters.

She arrived back home in Louisiana on May 14th feeling better than ever. She got a clean bill of health from her doctor at the end of May which was welcome news for both her and me. I only thought she had energy before. She now could give the energizer bunny a run for his money. LOL

We have really been missing traveling and since I had a business trip planned the week before Memorial Day I decided to fly Gina with me to Cincinnati. Not that Cincinnati is the greatest places to take a vacation we still enjoyed a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. We had a great time together just enjoying each other. Upon our return back to Louisiana Gina spent a couple weeks in Louisiana and then spent a couple of weeks in Houston with me. We had planned a weeklong trip to fly up and spend time with our wonderful friends Mike & Janna in Montana and had thought Mike & Pat (Mom & Pop’s) were going to meet us there but they had other commitments. I’m not going to rewrite our happenings there since I know a lot of you read their blog too. So check out their blog if you want to see all the fun we were having. The intent of this trip was for me to have a little down time while Gina wanted to learn how to quilt from Janna. Gina had planned on learning back in February while we were in the desert. However, our travels were cut short due to our Uncle’s death and me getting a job offer too good to turn down. We were there June 26 to July 4.

I don’t like to end on a sad note. However, while we were in Montana we received some very sad news that the brother of our good friend John (JB & Brenda from Alberta) had died. Our hearts and prayers go out to him and Brenda during this very difficult time.

We are now looking forward to the birth of our first Grandchild due any day. Stay tuned and I’ll post pictures just as soon as she arrives. Gina and I feel so blessed and loved by so many of y’all for caring about us. Thank you all for all the comments and emails inquiring about us. We love you all!!!

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Gina Is Recovering & Friends Visit

Another month has gone by. Whether we want time to go slow or fast it’s moving at the same consistent pace. This month has flown by. I would like to tell everyone how busy we have been but that is not the case. However, that's not to say we have not done anything. In a nutshell I have been working and Gina is recovering from her surgery.

After Gina’s surgery she was laid up in bed and taking it extremely easy as the doctor ordered. I went back to Houston for work and Nicole, our daughter was at home taking care of her. Two weeks after her surgery she went for her post surgery follow-up and was given the all clear to take her flight to Grenada. So on April 19th Rickey, our brother-in-law drove Gina and Nicole down to New Orleans for their flight to Grenada. They had a great flight and were greeted at the airport by Ashley & Parker.

Nicole & Gina's Arrival in Grenada

Right after Gina's surgery Thomas emailed us and told us he was leaving the ship for somewhere and he couldn’t tell us.  He assured his mom and I that he would be safe. This set off a lot of emotions for us. However, Our Father calmed our fears while we prayed for his safety. He surprised me on Easter with a phone call.  To say hearing his voice felt wonderful is a gross understatement. We only got to talk for a few minutes but those few minutes were fantastic. For even better news I received an email from him on Tuesday letting me know that he was back on the USS Green Bay. I immediately let his mom know and we both rejoiced and praised God for keeping him safe. He also sent us a picture and he let me know that he had been in Oman doing some training exercises with the Omanis.

Gina on the other hand has been enjoying her stay in Grenada with our daughters, Nicole and Ashley. She is still following the doctor orders and taking it easy.  She spends her time by sitting and laying on the beach and working on her tan.

This past Monday morning I received an email from Rod & Deb letting me know that they were passing through Louisiana and wanted to catch up with me as they knew Gina was in Grenada. I immediately emailed them back to let them know I wouldn’t be home until Thursday night since I work in Houston Monday to Thursday. They said that was fine since they wouldn’t be in the area until Friday. They were currently in Beaumont, Texas. As I was driving back to Louisiana on Thursday evening I decided to stop at the campground and visit with them.  It was so good to see them again. I made plans to bring them dinner on Friday after they got setup in the campground they were going to which was about 12 miles east of our house.

Friday afternoon I made a big pot of crawfish etouffee and rice. I drove out and had dinner with them while catching up on all their travels since we left them in the Arizona desert in February. A wonderful evening and they made plans to come by the house on Saturday.

Saturday when they arrived they surprised me with some hot salmon croquettes with a fresh homemade dill dipping sauce. Thank you Deb and they tasted great!! After that wonderful snack / lunch I took them to our local produce stand and they picked up a few items. Deb commented that she loves to find local farmer markets as they travel. They dropped me back off at the house and I told them I would meet them later in the evening for dinner. They were grilling fresh salmon tonight since Gina and I left the desert the morning before they grilled salmon for everyone that was there with us. Rod & Deb traveled through Alaska last summer and brought back a whole lot of salmon Rod had caught while in Alaska. Dinner was again great. Not only did they grill salmon but also cooked some fresh green beans she bought earlier along with some Japanese rice & Cilantro. It was so wonderful to see and visit with Rod & Deb again. Their daughter went to school at LSU and one of her friends live in the area so they have plans to visit her before they continue their travels further east.

We may not be traveling right now.  However, Gina and I always think about all our RV’ing friends and this was a great treat for me to have Rod & Deb stop and visit for a couple of days. I had a great time and thanks for the wonderful meal. I wish Gina could have been here to enjoy our little get together. Safe travels as y’all make your way toward Red Bay.

Gina is feeling better and continues to recover well. Additionally, Thomas has been kept safe and out of harm’s way. Both are answered prayers and we thank everyone for their prayers. We serve an AWESOME God and we stand amazed as He answers prayers.

One of the many Sunsets Gina is enjoying as she recovers

(I'd say that's a pretty nice setting to recover in)

Gina wanted me to pass on to Mom & Pop's out in Arizona that the little spillway made with rocks looks good!!  Gina said those rocks look like rocks she would have chosen.  She's glad to see that a little of her has rubbed off on both of you.  She only wishes that she was out there with y'all finding more special rocks.  She sends her love to y'all as I do too.

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Surgery Is Over & Recovery Begins

Gina and I are humbled again by all the comments and emails after yesterday’s long awaited update on us. As you can tell we have been extremely busy.

Nicole, our daughter arrived last night from New York to be here with her mom today. We left for the hospital at five o’clock this morning and that is after Gina soaked in the bathtub with a solution prescribed by her doctor. The good part of getting up so early is that the hospital is only five miles down the interstate from our house. We arrived promptly at 5:15 and was pleasantly greeted by a very nice volunteer who called Gina by name. This went a long way in calming Gina's fears. At least she knew they were expecting her.

Gina's surgery was right on schedule and began at seven o’clock. She was finished and in recovery by nine o’clock. Soon after the doctor came out to let us know how her surgery went and he seemed to be very happy with everything and told us the surgery went extremely well. I want to thank everyone for lifting Gina up in prayer. All Praise and Glory goes to God. He not only helped calm Gina’s fears today but also brought her through all of this great. God takes care of his children. Now the recovery process begins and I’m sure she will be back to her self in about two months.

Gina and I really want to express our sincere gratitude and thanks for keeping us in your prayers. We have always ended every blog with this saying: “Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with”. Today we rejoice for giving us such a wonderful day and for bringing Gina through her surgery. Our Father is so Awesome!!!

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Our Father Has A Plan

First, Gina and I would like to thank everyone who has emailed us to make sure we were all right. We are indeed doing OK, we have just been extremely busy. We have never went five weeks without writing a blog entry but there just hasn’t been much time to get on the computer. (We have been so busy that Gina hasn't even had time to unload her rocks until yesterday.)  Our Father has been at work in our lives.  There has been some changes and we feel He is the one orchestrating those changes.  So in an effort to catch everyone up I'll just begin with our arrival back in Louisiana.

We arrived back home and our first priority was visiting Aunt Nell and getting ready for Uncle Jim’s memorial service. The service was very nice and a great tribute for a wonderful man who had tremendous impact on our lives.

James Edwin Thurston

December 5, 1932 - February 22, 2011

From there our focus was on taking care of Aunt Nell. Both she and Uncle Jim have been like Gina’s mom and dad. From the time we moved to Louisiana in 1996 they have always been there for Gina and our children. We had hoped that one day we would be able to travel with them but their age caught up with them in 2007 before that could happen. For us,  one of the highlights in our travels was in 2009 when we took both of them to Kentucky and Illinois for two weeks. The memories we created will forever live in our hearts. In memory of him we planted a fig tree in our yard because he always stated that he didn’t have any use for a plant that didn’t provide food to eat.

Fig Tree for Uncle Jim

Our focus has been on feeding and taking care of Aunt Nell while trying to help her adjust to living without her husband of 52 years. Normally that would not be too difficult. However, at 83, her dementia has really taken its toll on her these past five weeks. Gina has done a great job taking care of her.

Gina has been experiencing female issues for a about six years and the past 6 to 8 months they have really gotten worse.  Something had to change and while we were home in December she found a very good Gynecologist and tomorrow she will have surgery that will allow her to feel better. At least that’s what our prayer is. As such this has changed our travel plans for this year. In the middle of all of this I received a phone call from a very good friend about a short job offer in Houston. I was not looking for a job and really didn't want one either.  However, to make a long story very short, Gina and I prayed a lot about this and felt God's hand leading me down this path.  There's a lot more to the story and is a great testimony in how it all transpired.  I started working two weeks ago in Houston. So between Aunt Nell and me starting a new job there just hasn’t been a lot of free time for Gina or me.

Thomas, our son who deployed in February is doing good as he’s floats somewhere in the Indian Ocean. His unit at the present time is uncertain of what their mission is or will be. Ashley, his wife who is pregnant with our first grandchild has had some complications. The baby is growing and doing great so there's no concern with that.  However, Ashley’s eyesight since her pregnancy began has been deteriorating to such an extent that she'll be getting discharged on April 15th and moving back here to Louisiana until Thomas returns from his deployment in September.  On March 27th, Thomas & Ashley celebrated their one year wedding anniversary.  We planted a Willow Oak tree for them on their special day. Happy Anniversary to you two!!! We love y'all and are very proud of you both.

Thomas & Ashley's Oak tree

On March 12th, Gina and I celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary and my present to her was a plane ticket to Grenada so she can recover from her surgery by relaxing on the beach and spending time with Ashley & Parker, our daughter and SIL. She’ll also be flying back with our daughter on May 14th, as she’ll be finished with medical school there. After I surprised Gina with her ticket she had an idea about Nicole, our other daughter.  She ask me if she could fly down to Grenada with her. I agreed since Ashley will be in the middle of finals and Nicole would be there just in case her mom needed anything. At least that's how it was sold to me???

Since last year when mom & pop’s (aka Mike & Pat) sold their Truck and Teton and bought a motorhome we have discussed switching from a fifth wheel to a motorhome. We have gone back and forth in whether or not to sale our truck & trailer and buy a motorhome. This has not been an easy decision for us since we absolutely love our truck and trailer and have made it the perfect fulltime setup for us. However, after much discussion we made the decision. Our truck and trailer is officially for sale while we search for a motorhome. If anyone is interested you can email us at rolliethurston@yahoo.com. I will get both of them listed this week.

I know that we didn’t cover everything that has been happening in our lives. However, Gina and I are doing great and feel very blessed by Our Father. We are at a loss of words in trying to tell you all how much the emails inquiring about us have meant to us. We have always been humbled by the amount of love shown to us within the RV’ing community. We love you all and thank you for thinking about us.


Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Friends & A Very Special Gift

First and foremost, from the bottom of our hearts Gina and I want to say thank you to everyone for keeping Thomas and us in your prayers. We have been humbled by all the lovely comments and thanks to Thomas for his service and condolences for Uncle Jim. We feel truly blessed by God that he has placed so many wonderful friends in our lives.

After receiving the news of Uncle Jim’s death and praying for our family we decided we needed to head to our house in Louisiana. Nicole, our daughter is driving home from New York and Ashley our other daughter is flying in from Grenada. After telling Ashley, our daughter in law bye we departed Victorville, California Thursday morning and arrived back in the desert near Bouse, Arizona where our good friends Jim & Ellie, Mike & Janna, and Rod & Deb are parked. On our arrival we were greeted with lots of hugs from everyone and were treated to a wonderful travel day meal at Jim & Ellie’s. After a heartfelt and much needed prayer from Ellie we enjoyed an excellent meal consisting of grilled pork steaks by Jim, mac & cheese casserole by Deb and roasted brussel sprouts, carrots and onions by Janna.

After dinner we walked over to Mike & Janna’s where she gave Gina and I a special gift. While we were gone to California she sewed a Service Flag for us. Immediate family of service men and women can fly the Service Flag during times of war. The blue star represents each service member, the gold star imposed over the blue star signifies a family member who has died as a result of conflict or has died while in service. The lower blue star is for Thomas, the upper blue/gold star is for our son Rollie who died while serving in the Navy. Janna, this flag will be displayed with pride and will always be a reminder to us of the love that was sewn in each stitch.  Thanks Janna & Mike for such kind and touching words in your blog entry yesterday.  I encourage everyone to read her blog (www.tinteepeelogcabin.blogspot.com).

Our Precious Gift

After we all finished crying and wiping our eyes we decided it was time to go home. We made it back around 9:30 and with both of us tired we just went to bed thanking Our Heavenly Father for such caring and loving friends we have been blessed with.

I do not seem to have words that can adequately describe the feelings and emotions Gina and I have for all the wonderful people God has placed in our lives. We call them friends but in reality they’re like family and like family they are always there when you need them and right now Gina and I need them. We love you all and thank you for being there for us.

We are now heading for North Ranch, which is in Congress, Arizona to visit with Mom & Pop's for a little while before we continue our drive to Louisiana.

Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

Telling Thomas Bye & Watching Him As He Deploys

Sunday night we took Thomas and Ashley to Fleming’s for nice night of dining. The meal was wonderful and the atmosphere was excellent. We enjoyed a great night with them.

All of us at Fleming's

Monday morning I rode in to work with Thomas so I could spend a little time with him. We made it back home around noon and for the rest of the day Gina and I helped him to get ready for Tuesday morning. Gina sewed a name tag on for him and fried chicken tenders with homemade mashed potatoes for dinner. We didn’t stay too late since we were all leaving at 3:30 in the morning.

We were up at 1:30 and at Thomas & Ashley’s apartment at three o’clock. We arrived at Camp Pendleton at 5:30. We first watched Thomas load all of his gear in his humvee and then he went to his office to grab his remaining gear and load it too.

We got our hugs and kisses in and said our goodbyes. We then waited for him to drive his humvee off.

Thomas waving from his Humvee

Thinking that we wouldn't see him anymore but then realized that there was a convoy of vehicles leaving for the Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) loading area better know as Assault Craft Unit Five.  The same place Thomas was heading.

Entrance sign to ACU 5

We decided to follow them and to see if we could see him off. Well, low and behold not only were we able to see him off but we got to spend more time with him. We were treated to a very orchestrated show by the Navy & Marines. We got to spend more time with Thomas after watching the Marines line up all of their vehicles.

(it wouldn't be like this for long)

During this time we watched the five LCACs that were deploying get moved down the ramp and into position for all of the Marine vehicles to be loaded on to them.

After more hugs & kisses we sadly watched Thomas walked to his humvee so it could be loaded on to LCAC-33. I commented to Thomas that it was weird watching him leave because it was always me leaving for deployments.  During my Navy career I made seven deployments and saying goodbye was never easy. Gina and I were very impressed as we watched the Sailors and Marines do their job.

The Marines lined up and moving toward the LCACs

One final wave goodbye

While we waited we could see two warships on the horizon. These two ships, USS Green Bay and USS Boxer will be carrying the LCACs along with the Marines and their equipment to the Western Pacific and Indian Oceans. There is one other ship USS Comstock that is deploying with them. Here’s a link to a news article about their departure (article). At the present time Thomas is headed for Afghanistan. Once all the LCAC’s were loaded we watched all the loading ramps get raised and then one by one they proceeded out into the ocean.

Here she is on the water

As much as we will miss Thomas we know that it’s because of men and women like him that we are able to enjoy the freedoms we have in America. We pray for his and all the men and women going in harm's way today a safe return back to us and their families.  Gina and I would also like to thank everyone who has either commented, sent emails or mentioned him in your blog thanking Thomas for his service and for keeping him in your prayers until he returns.


About 20 minutes after we watched all of the LCACs depart we received a phone call from my dad that his brother, Uncle Jim had passed away.  We were stunned and in disbelief.  Uncle Jim was like a father to Gina and a Grandfather to our children.  He lived around the corner from us and he was always there for Gina and our children while I was serving in the Navy.  Gina and I ask that you keep Aunt Nell and Dale, their son along with our family in your prayers.


Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.

A Day Of Fun

Saturday morning started off with us driving over to Thomas & Ashley’s apartment to decide what we would do today. Thomas was preparing his gear for his departure on Tuesday and decided to have a little fun with his mom.

Gina looking like she's ready for battle

Thomas loves his mom

There is snow on those mountains

We decided to drive down to Ontario where there is a mall so Ashley & Thomas could do some baby shopping. The weather was nasty with rain at low altitudes and snow at the higher elevations with winds over 30 mph. We made it over Cajon Pass while driving through the snow. Gina and I had a lot of fun watching Ashley & Thomas shop today. They bought a few items but mostly they did a lot of looking.

Ashley and Thomas shopping

Thomas having fun

By five o’clock we were all hungry and Thomas had Joe’s Crab Shack on his mind. This is his favorite restaurant and would be his last opportunity for a while to eat there, so Joe’s it was.

Thomas & Ashley

We enjoyed a great meal with them before heading back over Cajon Pass toward Victorville. It was snowing really hard over the Pass but we made it.  We made one final stop at Babies R Us so they could show us the baby bed they picked out.  I was overwhelmed by everything they have for babies today.  They sure didn't have all that stuff when we raised our babies.  Nevertheless, we finally made it back to their apartment and Ashley & Gina laid out all the purchases from today so I could get a picture.

"Ashley & Thomas had successful day of shopping"

For sure Abigail Faith will be Daddy's girl

We enjoyed a great day with Thomas & Ashley before we headed home and called it a night.


Gina & I hope everyone has a pleasant and wonderful day, enjoying what our Father has so graciously blessed us with.
