Fishing!

It is not very often we get to go fishing with Papaw! So we take every chance we can get. We went to one of Papaw "spots" to fish last Wednesday. I will say I have a couple of city slickers! They caught some perch and would not take them from my dad and turn them loose. Putting shrimp on their hook was a not gonna do that either. But if we had worms....... I have decided though that they like to fish just like their Mimi. With "live" bait, cork and a lawn chair. Once we fished a little with the shrimp, dad put on their artificial lures to fish for bass. They were not too thrilled with the waiting time for a fish to come along and jump on the hook.


Now for the Mamma's bragging rights!!!!!!!! I am the only one who caught bass! Two might I add......


You will see below the pics of our adventure:) Papaw thanks for making our day a great one.

Busy Busy Busy





Wow the time has flown by! I can not beileve I have not posted since March! We have been moving our church to its new location. What a bute! God has blessed us so much. We have a beautiful place to go and worship and see lives changed. It is amazing what location will do. We have seen about 120 kids come through in the last 4 weeks that we have not seen before. WOW time for phase 2. Dont let Pastor Mark hear me say that, he might colapse.


We finished out the 2007-2008 school year with a bang. Both boys did an awesome job this year. Jonny is reading and Ryan is reading entire chapter books. That is crazy. I still get to read to them. I hope they dont out grow that too quick.


Ryan has made it to his first blue stripe in Karate! He did a fantastic job with his sparing (fighting with pads)


My niece Amada graduated from High School. She is the last of my sister Stacy's children. She does have 3 more to go that are our sister Dyan's! Hang in there sis. You will make it.


Our little Minnie dog is hangin' with us. Jonny just loves her. We all love her but Jonny....Let me tell you a little story. Roger and the boys were coming home for some event and Roger told the boys, "I have waited 2 years for Prince Caspin to come out." Jonny said, "I have waited all my life for a dog!" She is so good to put up with him toting her around the house.


For those of you who are going, you have a dog.....read the archives and you will find the story about "my dog."


Be on the look out for more updates in my spare time.
