    Trying To Fit The Ocean In A Cup

    Hello Everyone!

    Sorry we haven't posted in a while, we have started new blogs by blogger so they take a good bit of our time. Most of our friends have blogger blogs so we get to here from them more often too. But besides that you can see that we have a new look in honor of summer being here, and I just finished it today. We have been so busy lately so I thought I would give you an update...

    1. Alyssa had her 15th B-day on the 12th and we had a party the weekend before, it was a ton of fun and I was glad to celebrate another year with my sister.

    2. Joshua graduated the 17th and he and his wife Katie are now living with us. It is a change but we are getting used to it already, and I am getting used to my mattress on the floor. (We are hoping thats temperary)

    3. We got to see Prince Caspian on Monday with my dad, mom, Josh, Katie, Caleb, and Nathan. It was GREAT!

    4. Last night we heard news that Steven Curtis Chapman's youngest daughter was hit by a car in their driveway when her brother didn't see her and was rushed to the hospital, she later died from her injuries. Please pray for them, and especially the brother who accidently hit her. This is going to be a tough thing to get through, but we God is with them. We don't know them personally, but the do live near us.

    5. Katie left for Texas this morning to visit her mom, she is coming back Wednesday. Hopefully Josh won't miss her too much. :)

    6. Last, but definitely not least, Kelly and Taras left for Belarus today to go and visit his family and do some work there. We haven't heard from them yet, but we hope to soon.

    So that is what has happened the past couples days. We are also still doing music and babysitting, but mainly just relaxing and doing some fun stuff around here. I have a Scrapbook to start working on over the summer, so that is the only "project" I can think of doing because of the hectic school year.

    See you all soon! Hope you have a good weekend!

    Hello

    It has been a long time since we posted, sorry about that. We have been really busy with church, school, babysitting, and all sorts of other things. Our family is doing well. I started piano lessons a few months ago and am excelling in it and in voice. Bethany and Nathan are doing well with guitar too. My birthday is coming up next month May 12th. I'll be turning 15! It doesn't really seem different though, it never does. Anyway I don't even know if people still read our xanga but if you do then comment so that we know, or we might quit it all together.

    Happy 5th of January everyone! Well if it weren't for Xanga doing work on something, I was about to post some photos, but since they are I just have to wait. We just had our Brian Krebs family get together last night, thats a fancy way of saying that our family got together last night and it was GREAT! We hadn't seen Josh since early December and Kelly since the Saturday before Christmas, so we had a lot of fun playing games, watching movies, and eating a lot of food. We got back from seeing relatives on the 3rd, though the only reason it was the 3rd was because it was past midnight, anyway we had a wonderful time visiting my grandmother and aunt and uncle in Louisiana, and in Mississippi with my other grandparents. We opened gifts on Christmas Eve so that we could spend Christmas day with my cousin who is going through a rough time. I hope everyone's holidays were wonderful and y'all have a happy new year. I will try to post more later but right now I am watching 24 so I'm kind of busy, yep watching Jack Bauer and CTU save the World, not really, but this show is really cool and if you don't watch every bit of it you miss stuff that you need to know. Anyway I will post again as soon as possible. Got to go!

  • Happy (late) Thanksgiving everyone!

    I don't know about all of you but Thanksgiving always puts me in the Christmas Spirit! We are as always busy but not so busy as usual. We just put up our Christmas lights and are going to get our tree soon. We got two Lasa Apso puppies that are 14 and a half weeks old. Their names are Little Joe (like from the ponderosa) and Danny Boy from Bethany's imagination. I'll try to send some pictures later. Anyway so that's about all that's new in our lives except that I am going to be in my Church's Christmas choir and Bethany, Nathan, and Me, are all taking music lessons. Anyway so if you feel like commenting on anything...Go for it!

    WOW!!! I has been forever since we have posted anything! well... maybe not forever, , but I while. Let me sort of tell you what we have been doing...

    Working on putting new hard wood floors in (well my dad has  and I feel sorry for him)...

    Alyssa started Voice lessons  (thats suposed to be someone singing)...

    Me and Nathan start Guitar lessons this Wed  and I am just a little nervous...

    our Mom is taking tests, writing papers, and is stressed with being a colloge student again ...

    we have school to do, and more to add in I might say ...

    I babysit every Wed, and so does Alyssa...

    We have had, a Jr. High party, a Birthday party, and a Sleepover this month already...

    So we have been busy. Sadly some people's livese are busier than ours, and they don't have nearly as much time for God, and for each other.

    But anyway, we will try and post something more interesting soon.

    God Bless!!!

    Long time no post!

    It's been a long time since we have posted. We have been very busy lately with all sorts of things namely: school, church, my mom's schoolwork, the house, ect. I'm sure you all know how it goes. We're not even sure anyone reads our xanga, myspace seems to be the most popular thing now. Anyway I must finish cleaning but I will try and post soon about what else is going on here.

    This pic was taken at the beginning of this year (I think) We wet our hair and then put it in a bunch of braids and then slept on it. It worked really well that time. We are up in a Magnolia tree. (My parents went to Russia Dec 28 through the 7th of January last year after Christmas and we went and stayed with my aunt and cousin Shannon then too)

    Well there are some of the pics I promised to post, I will try and post some from the Lake House soon.

  • Woah it's been a while since we have posted on our xanga! Well let me give you a quick update... my parents had a good, safe trip to Russia and we got to meet them at the airport, we drove home from LA with my aunt so that she could help us decorate and re-organize our house so that we could put it on the market, my room looks a little different now. My big brother Josh turned 21 on 5th of this month, and i really missed getting to see him on his birthday  but I should get to see him sometime soon. We just got back from vacation last night at 1 in the morning, and sadly i couldn't fall asleep until 3... but we had a wonderful time in FL. The water a the lake house was a lot lower than when we went 2 years ago, so we had a pretty good drop off of the dock, but the water was still as clear as ever, and we got to swim, boat, and fish, I also had a first timer when I was there, I jumped off of the platform that was about a 15 foot drop (it was around eight last time), talk about scary... but it turned out to be a lot of fun actually. We also went to Big Kahunas water park while we were there and that was a lot of fun... we just had family time and relaxed, which was good, especially for my parents. Well that is what has been happening around here lately, and I turn 13 this Saturday while we are in Dollywood with some friends for homeschool day, we will be ther Thursday, Friday and Saturday. YAY!!! Well I am going to post this so that a can get off and download some pics from my camera.

                                                                         post again soon

  • In Louisianna

    Hey everyone, as most (or all) of you know, my parents are in Siberia on a mission trip, they arrived safely to my knowledge, and we made it safely to Mer Rouge LA. Right now we are in Ruston with my cousin Shanny (Shannon) and Billy and their kids, Jeff, Katie, Holly (Hollen), Meggie (Megan), and Nate. I know... It's a FULL house, but we are having SO much fun, and I am so busy I don't have time to worry about my mom and dad (Which is actually a good thing). But we will be here for a few days and then head back to Mer Rouge with my aunt and uncle. I am consistently hearing all a matter of interesting name and words from Nate (the two year old), for instance... I am called Ben-nen-ee, and Alyssa is A-di-da, or something like that, Nathan is Nay-fan and Caleb is DoDo (sounds like dough-dough). So that is funny, and we are just having a great time, and I hope to keep people updated while we are here with what we are doing. Please continue to pray for my parents.

    Bethany

About Me

  • Well we are sisters and we are very different. I am a loud, entergetic, fun and crazy person and Bethany is a quiet, deep thinking, artistic, and is full of compassion. She can be just as fun and crazy as me around people she knows. We both love the Lord and love learning about him. We enjoy being with all eight members of our family (we would never forget our in-laws) and each other. We love being with our friends. And we both have our personal interests which you can read about in our profile.
