Computer Games

I was taking a bath and Marius came in the bathroom with this heartbreaking story....

Marius (holding his head in his hands)- Mom, I have a BIG problem and I need your help.
Me- What it is?
Marius- well, see on Minecraft I found a diamond!! BUT I don't know if I should make a diamond hoe, so I would have a completed tool collection, OR save the diamond.
Me- Well, would you like to have the whole tool set?

(*Insert about 5 minutes of pros and cons*)
Marius- YES.
Me- ok then go with the diamond hoe.

Still feeling a little sick, better soon hopefully!! Looking forward to a little getaway with my hubby next weekend!! So excited!! Marius is going over to his Gramma's house today, he loves it being summer so he can see her more often =)

Happy Memorial Day!!

Things have been going pretty well health wise... until yesterday lol. I took a bath because my leg muscles have been achy. Been using the pool and trying to use the muscles to get them strong again. Well... that was partly a bad idea. I was getting out of the bath and somewhere between sitting and standing, WAY closer to standing, I felt my legs start to shake and knew I couldn't stop it, BAM back into the tub. So today, needless to say I feel like I was hit by a truck.

On the plus side my hubby got me Lego Pirates of the Caribbean so at least I have had something to do.

And I have to enjoy this time of Marius' life... he thinks I am a genius at math!! LMAO And I got him signed up for football again. =)

Family Trees - Hefner- Ancestry.com

The name Hefner (Havner, Heavner, Heaffner, Heffner) is a German dialect word meaning potter, and is still standard Pennsylvania German. In Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Holland one can still read this name in shop windows and telephone directories.

Melchoir Hefner (Melcar Havner) arrived in the US on 1 Sept 1734 on the ship St. Andrew Galley with Captain John Stedman from Rotterdam, Holland. With many other German immigrants seeking a new life in America, Melchoir landed at a port in Maryland. At age 16, he found that new home in Frederick Co, MD.

From Maryland land records we find that Melchoir Hefner and his wife, Anna Catharina, owned tracts of land in Frederick County called "Peace" and "New Germany," which they sold, in 1772, after moving to what is now Catawba County.

Why they left Maryland for North Carolina we have no record, but they must have heard from relatives who had preceded them of the good life in this area. On December 13, 1770, Melchoir and Catharina purchased 350 acres of land in Linclon County which was named "The Plantation." A year or so later in December 1771 or 1772, they arrived in North Carolina to make their home.

All of this couple's children were born in Maryland. Fortitude and courage were shown in traveling through Indian territory to make a home for this group.

In an early history of the Teague Family of Alexander County, "Jacob Hefner's father was John Hefner, who was a drummer in the Revolutionary War. John's father was Melchoic Hefner who was a soldier in the same struggle for American independence." John J. Hefner is listed on the Revolutionary War roster of Lincoln County as being in Company C--10th Regiment.
