Monica~  Thank you for being so kind:) 

Rita, there are times I must refrain from all I know :)  LOL

Wow!  You guys are great!  The kids haven't seen your posts yet, but they will view it first thing Monday.  Yesterday was homecoming so we ran out of time.  I can see that I should have put stipulations on your posts.  Haha No stories from anyone.  I will post a link for you to look at theirs but I am still getting approval right now.  I am going to have them post on ours if I can.  Not sure if that is possible, but I think they can just go in under my name.  They are so excited!  The kids saw our family picture and said, "That's a big family."  I told them that wasn't even everyone.  Thanks again for your participation:)

Teresa and Steve, Love all of your pictures. They are so good! 

Monica, I was just SURE you had some kind of story to share with Mrs. Sims class!!  I was sooo looking forward to it.

~Rita~

Hello Mrs. Sims' class!!!  I am one of Mrs. Sims' many cousins.  I live in VA.  I know you must be getting exciting for fall to be here.  The trees looks so beautiful when the leaves start changing color.  I hope you all enjoy the experience of creating a blog :)  And remember, spell check is your friend!!

Teresa, love the pics.  We might have to take a visit to the train depot :)

Janet, Could you post us a message from your class....  Maybe some of their comments. And if anyone else posts them a message, tell them where you live.  Could you post the link to their blog so we can follow it?

Hey there Mrs. Sims 5th grade class!  This is her mom.  I'm so glad you are looking in on us.  I think that you have a good teacher, (But of course, I could be partial).  She does want you to learn so that you can succeed in life.  She cares about each one of you and wants to see you happy and healthy.  I hope she isn't a mean teacher. LOL  She is from a large family so she will have fun explaining to you who all these people are.  Have fun learning how to make a blog and just maybe, you can make one for your family.  I think they would love it.  Most of us uh...older folks are not tech saavy and I didn't think I would get on a BLOG, but it has turned out to be a very good thing and I found out it wasn't that hard...I'm still not going to get on Facebook though!!

Teresa, your family is beautiful!  I can't pick a favorite.  They are all soooo good.

Pssst~ If you, (Mrs. Sims class) want to know anything about Mrs. Sims, I can tell you all kinds of stories!!!

SHOUT OUT  to Mrs. Simms Class!  HELLO from Dublin, Virginia!

I am soo excited for you!  Having a blog of your very own.  I like our blog because it lets me talk to all of my family at one time!  I love it when they all put their two cents worth in :)  Another reason I like our blog is that we get to see pictures of everyone!  Did you see the newest little addition to our Treadway Family.  He is soo handsome!
I also know that Mrs. Simms is a great teacher with loads of patience!  You are blessed to have her!  Being kin and all, boy the things we could tell you about her. . . . . Maybe we will chat again sometime.  I'll be listening for news of what you are doing!

P.S.  Pssst . . . Ask her about the Kool-Aid that didn't taste so so.   Or maybe the pond incident (scary but funny)

Mrs. Sims' Fifth Grade Class

Good Morning, Class:

I am one of Mrs. Sims' many aunts.  Mrs. Sims is an excellent teacher, and I am sure you will have a lot of fun blogging!

Hello Mrs Sims 5th grade class!  I am Mrs Sims Aunt Trish and creator of The Family Blog!  Welcome and I hope you enjoy reading about our family!  But more importanly I hope you enjoy creating your own blog!  Its super fun:)

Mrs. Sims

Hey Everyone, I am showing my fifth grade class our family Blog.  If you have time, will you post a message for them.  We have a blog of our own and we will begin using it next week.  Hope everyone has a wondrful day:)  Love you, Janet   

Monica, I did not know Emily or her family very well, although I am told that one of the father's brothers will be taking their son to live with him.  He IS local.  I understand that both families agreed that this would create the least unheavel in the son's life.  We took up a collection here and the father's work is doing the same.  The local news came here and also went to the father's workplace and did a special interest story appealing to the community for help.  There has been an account set up at a local bank to accept donations on the son's behalf.  Very sad indeed.

In 2008 another of our employees died leaving two young boys.  The husband later committed suicide with drugs, as I recall, leaving the two boys with their grandmother.  One is 18 and the other 15, and I was told last week that the grandmother's cancer has returned.  Another very sad situation.  Makes one wonder how people can make it without God, doesn't it?

Ruth, that is such tragic news.  I hate it for the whole family especially the son.  Is there family members that he can be placed with so he can still be around familiar people?

Another sad day at The Cadle Company - One of our employees, Emily Danes, and her husband were coming home from dinner and a movie celebrating their anniversary Friday night and a car on the wrong side of the road hit them head on and killed both of them instantly.  They lived out our way on County Line Road and the accident happened on South Canal before you get to County Line.  The man who hit them had had three OVI's and they suspected that he was again driving impaired, although the toxicology report has not come back yet.  They have a little boy who is seven (his birthday was Saturday I am told).  Please pray for their families.

Olivia, you are indeed lovely!

I scrapbooked some pics from Labor Day weekend, put them in frames and Mark hung them in our bedroom.  Trish, you'll have to let Tina and Clarence know that their beagle made it on my wall :)  The pics in the frame with the blue background were taken up at their house :)  It is so beautiful up there.  The other frame is of Mar and her s'more at the fire pit :P
