Hey guys! How y'all doin? I wanted to ask that you all keep Grandma & Grandpa Krackenberger in your prayers today. They are stuck in Tennessee right now on there way back from Florida with a broke down car. And Grandma just found out this morning that her Stepmother just passed away. So my little poor Grandma & pa are not having a good day.
Lindy, thank you so much for setting this blog up for our family. It is a great way for a family living spreadout to stay in touch. Talk to you all soon.

baby shower rsvp

Melbelle,

I will say I am coming. As far as I know Carrie is working. She is on nights now at LOWES. I will do my best to be there. I am struggling with the broke butt syndrom. I have a very hard time setting and then having to stand and then having to set. sooooo...it is still a week away, so maybe by then I will be even better. I am doing some intense therapy which is helping a whole bunch. I have not worked since I fell. That really puts a big bite in the wallet. I am med leave and I am only making $20.00 a day. Whoopdee doo!!! So anyhoo. I will do my best to be there. If I am not...I will send my gift with momma. Love to all.

Congrats Missy for joining!!! Hate that poison ivy with a passion. Had it a couple of falls ago and nearly went crazy with the itch...

Hope to see all at the benefit!

need rsvp for shower

O.K. Family,
I need to know by the 24th who will be attending the baby shower on the 30th. Why is because if you plan on being there at 6pm to eat they need to know so they know how much staff they need for the food. Also I need to know so I know how many chairs I need for our family. I told you we can meet here at the house if you want. Please pass this message on to Shelly, Carrie, anyone who hasn't been using the blogg.
Love ya,
Mel

Welcome Missy! This is so exciting. I love it!

Made it Home Safe

Just got back from a couple of days with the Wright Bunch. We had a good time and Uncle Steve and Aunt Dee and Uncle Jim showed us a great time and were so kind to let us stay with them.

I am still suffering with poison ivy and about ready to scratch my arms with a fork. Manual labor kills and I don't plan on doing much of it in the near future until I get this poison ivy under control.

My babies go for their kindergarten check up Friday. I can't believe it.

Take care and look forward to seeing you at the Wright Stuff!

Missy

whoooohoooooooo

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!Missy is with us!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks lindy, this is so awesome. I'm hoping Stacy gets on here soon.

Baby shower

Hello,
I was just informed that Emily's Aunt Julie is going to have a baby shower for Emily March 30th. She wants all of your address' so she can send invites. I know you guys are sick of hearing from me! I know Emily would love for you to be there. Emily really needs diapers and wipes. I also told Steph if you guys see some cute clothes maybe go in together and get three matching boy outfits and two girls. You guys have been great, and I know your not made of money and I hate to keep asking for you to spend more money. ( that's what it is begining to feel like) It is going to be at Dick Clarks resturant here in town. You could maybe meet here and we pile in together or something. Please pass this info on to everybody. I didn't want you to get the invite the week of the shower.
Baby update: Ethan is now at 3.2 lbs. and Sydney is at 2.8lbs and Jenna, Peyton, and Landon is at 2.3lbs. They are all gaining and off the vents except for Sydney. Sydney was put back on the vent 4 days ago because she started showing signs of infection. They started her on antibiotics that day and the test came back staff infection. The doc. said they started her 4 days ago on the antibiotics and she should be over it between 7 to 10 days. Praise God, they are all doing really good.
Anyways thanks for being so supportive! We love you and I'll let you know anything else we hear around here.

Rob and Em's Auction

Shelby just told me about your butt breaking experience this morning. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you get to feeling better. And this is the first I heard that Kelly may be prego.
I'm not sure if all of you have heard what me and Mel would like to do. For Rob and Em's benefit we would like to do a themed basket sponsored by the Wright family. I know Shelby talked to Aunt D and Aunt L. But, I'm not sure if word has gotten completely around yet. We would like to collect money from the family and me and Mel would purchase items to make a really nice basket to auction. If you don't mind, spread the word as much as you can. And just whatever amount you are able to give would be much appreciated. I'm not sure how much we will see eachother before the auction, so if you would like to mail it you can mail it to me, 629 Makemson, Princeton, IN 47670.

broke butt mountain

for any of you all out there in the whole fam damily... i broke my butt. i fell in the shower and broke my tail bone. no offers on rubbing and kissing it to make it feel better. by the way lindy came up with the saying!!!!

so what is up with kelly? is she warming a bun in the oven? and i figured stacy would have to quit work soon. when is cheryl supposed to do the surgery. it is an overwhelming event, but it after party is a success. i have never felt better and dont miss those stupid whenever they wanted to show up and go away periods.

steph. congrats for getting on here girl!!! i haint been to work to help shelb get on since i broke my butt.

anyhooo. if we dont see each other until the benefit, then see yaa at the fenebit!!!!

SEND ME CURRENT E-MAIL ADDRESSES!!

Okay peeps! The only bloggers so far (and by the way congrats to Steff for finally making it on here) are Steff, Mel, Lisa, and myself. I invited all the cousins whose addresses I have. Maybe some of the addresses aren't event current or like Steff, are inactive computers or something. Anywho, how about everybody email me (Lindy) your addresses and I will invite you to blog. That is the way it works. I started the page so I am the administrator and must invite people to blog or they cannot do it. Hence, therefore, and thusly, if anyone cares to update me with your current email, please do. lindaburke1@charter.net is my address. Yes, I know...original and creative email address.


PS Be sure and click "older posts" at the bottom of the blog page to see all the posts so far.

We love ya now....buhbye!!!

I'm a blogger!!! Yeah! Thanks for all of the help. And thanks for the updates on everybody.

Did it work? I sure hope so. The Wright temper was about to explode. Has anyone heard anything about Kelly or Stacy?

Lets keep the good thoughts and prayers going!

Hey guys! Mom just updated me that Stacy has been told she cannot work again until after the baby is born. It seems her blood pressure spiked but all is well and she is at home and on bed-rest until the baby arrives. Lets keep them in our prayers.

Also, let's not forget Cheryl. As per Shelby's e-mail it looks like a hyserectomy is upon her. Hey, at least that is one aisle at Kroger she can pass by afterwards, huh? God knows I don't miss that. Let's hope that takes care of a lot of her problems. Sometimes these things are blessings in disguise. Good luck, Cheryl!

So lets send prayers and positive thoughts out into the Universe for them. Of course, let's continue to pray for Robbie, Emily, and the quints continued blessings and progress.

Lastly, I know my mom has been in horrible shape for a couple of months now, also Aunt Pat, Aunt Debbie, my brother J.D.'s wife (Debbie), and Uncle Steve all have a lot of health issues that need our prayers.

I know we all have health issues (especially as we get older) and personal issues, so it goes unspoken that we all pray for each other. Let's just send out some extra-powered stuff for these special requests.

Happy late birthday, Lisa!

Okay, so better late than neva. Lizapatootie's b-day was Saturday. She is 29 and holding as most of us are now. Funny how we all end up the same age, yet we were born all different times. Anywho...I knew it much earlier, but pulled a "duh...I should post this on the old family blog." And for any peeps out there who's b-day is upcoming...please do inform us. I do good to keep up with my own. And would rather not really, as they seem to be coming more often than they used too. What a quandary. So, here's to Lisa! Wahoo sistacuz! Hope your happier than ever and I think you are!! May you just get happier and happier till ya have to go slap-happy and get giddy and people think there is something seriously wrong with you and they can't find a way to stop making you smile and you eventually get an award for making the most people smile back in the whole wide world of sports. Amen.

Mr. Noah had a meet last night and he 1st. place. Now he is on the alstar team for the next couple of weeks. He is so funny! We are very proud of him. I told him we would hang his sign, he is holding in the pic, in his room. On the way home last night he said" Do we have to hang it in my room?" I said "well sure, you want to have it up so people can see it" and he said " Can we hang it in the livingroom?" So it is now in our living room. ; )
I'm gonna try and get Steph hooked up. I'm not sure if I can or not. We will see.
Love ya all!!!!!!!!

Noah is #1 in Jr. heavy weight

Blog Woes

Okay, so I hear some of us are having mucho difficulties trying to get onto the site and trying to blog. I can only hope it eventually gets resolved because Lisa, Mel, and myself are gonna get pretty tired of being the only bloggin idiots in the family. We are working on the technical difficulties kids. Lisa is checking on things and said she would try to hep out. Call me anytime and I will do the same. 886-5121 would be da numba. Please feel free to call me so that we can be one big, fat, happy bloggin bunch of fools! As I am typing this I am realizing that maybe if you can't get on here you probly can't see this...duh. Well, maybe you can get on but you don't know how to blog. So I will copy this and email it on to da proper peeps.

Meanwhile at Blog Central.....

PLEASE SOMEBODY BLOG!!!

Melny's request

We are going around princeton, and Evansville to try and get donations for this event. If you guys could try some places in vincennes that would help us a lot. Aunt Dee could ask her church to make a basket of stuff to be auctioned off at the benefit. We are asking the churches around here to do a theme basket. Summer, kids stuff, car care kit....etc. Maybe see it the movie house will donate tickets or something. I worked a hibbetts here in town and they won't do anything. You could also ask the stores to display the paper so more people will attend.

Thanks family!

Mel

Quint Central

Hey everybody! In case you haven't heard yet, go to www.courierpress.com and click on Robbie and Emily's pic and watch the video. It is wonderful. Emily is looking mahvalous! They are both sooooo cute and look so well rested right now. Just wait! I am proud as I can be of them both and can't wait to see the quints in the flesh. God is truly blessing us with the health of all involved in that new and GROWING family. I tried emailing all the addresses that I have with that link but not sure how successful I was. Anywho...check it out!!
