Melissa’s birthday is next saturday. We had her party this sunday so to get ahead of deer season! Also, that way she can use her $$$ to spend this friday at Canton flea market.
Happy Birthday Melissa! I love you Bunches!
Kimberly took photos and made the cute Giggle wall art
We enjoyed the beautiful weather and dined outside..fried Florida fish & fixings. Had to save room for home-made ice cream and that cookie!
Yes, we DO have couches or beds but Jesse likes the floor! He’s REALLY asleep!
Our whole family went to Sea World saturday and it sure was fun! The weather was beautiful and it wasn’t very crowded. My grandkids love Sea World and those passports have got used quite a bit this year.
Here’s the only group photo I have of the day. Notice Danny and Inez were there too.
PawPaw and Brianna ride Shama
Lorien lets Uncle Dustin have the honour of carrying her [Isn't her Shama hat cute!?]
Rohan loved Sea World! He’d seriously watch and then clap and clap. Was Cute!
After we left Sea World we got to go to Bass Pro Shop [for the guys] and then eat at Casa Del Rio on the RiverWalk.
We celebrated Loretta’s birthday at the Riverside Park sunday. Took family photos and wow the family sure has grown. Go to Suzannes site to see the group photo that Norma Jean took and Suzanne edited. It turned out great!!
Happy Birthday Loretta. We love you!
This weekend was crazy busy! EVERYTHING seemed to land on the same weekend. Eugene had a VFD fish fry saturday and I cooked desserts for that. We had Lorettas birthday Sunday lunch at Riverside Park. [I hope to edit and get those pictures on my site within the next few days]. And we also had our singing at church sunday night with eats afterwards. Then we had our Garage sale at Dad and Moms saturday. With setting it up, doing the sale and taking it all down…I think everybody was so tired when the weekend ended!
Our garage sale was a HUGE success! Us gals, 8 of us, had a total of $ 1418. that we sold! With Daddys $$ from his part we topped $2000! I thought that pretty awesome! Melissa was gone to Sea World with Anna and Kimberly at the coast…but here’s a photo I took.
Eugene took me on a date and here’s the flowers he got me. My microwave kicked the bucket so we shopped for one!
Here’s some flowers from a few weeks past. Tigger loved them. Only thing he wants to eat leaves or knock over the vase. You would think a cat that burned his paws from getting on the fireplace last winter would learn something! But not Tigger.. he’ll problary do it again this winter.
GOD’S PROMISE
God never promised
A life without pain
Laughter without tears
Or sun without rain
But He did promise
Strenght for the day
Comfort for the tears
And a light for the way
And for all who believe
In His Heaven above
He rewards their faith
In His everlasting love.
I had this poem come to mind today so I searched online for the words.
Thought it might touch your day as it did mine.
Aren’t we blessed to serve such an AWESOME GOD!!
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday ” Young ” ??? Sister
Happy Birthday to You!!
We may be getting older and the days be flying by
But as Sisters I’m glad we get closer as the years go by
At least we still think we’re kiddos and at heart we’re forever young
Must be something about being a MawMaw that does that to us!
Happy Birthday Norma Jean I love You!
The first annual Lorena field day was great! I liked it best that all ages had fun. I seem to have more photos of the littler folks for some reason though.
First here is a photo of the organizers. A special thanks to Melissa, Suzanne, Kimberly, Esther, Casey, Valerie and Leann
Lorien is ready for the balloon toss as long as she gets to keep the balloon
Here is my favorite photo of the night… Everybody is just having fun.
Waiting for their turn at the broom race
Three-Legged race
The kids invented a few races of their own
Supper break and Pizza time
Tug-A-War Time
You can tell by the expressions that everybody of all sizes had a blast. Field day was a big success …so guess what??? Next year you gals are gonna have to do it again!!
Eugene had a blast fishing in Florida. I think he thinks his trip was rather awesome. Here are a few photos of his deep sea fishing trip.
