Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Michael, Wendy, Kiera and Devin came over and shared some turkey with us today. We had a great time but missed everyone from the mountains. Wanted to share some pictures of Devin and his Championship Baseball game from last week. They started out the season badly but regrouped and made it to the championship game. Miracles never cease because his team won as evidenced by his million dollar smile. He whacked the ball good once in the pic of him batting, and that was after the pitcher had plunked him earlier in the back with the ball. It all ended well so all was forgiven. So, Bean Boy, Devin said he had a new nickname . . . he said you could call him Champ! Ha.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

I just want to say that I am so thankful to have a big wonderful family. I am thankful that I had a praying grandma. I am blessed to have a supportive mom and husband. I am lucky that to reach out to my family I need only to press the on button and type. I am still waiting on the patience and calm in dealing with my youngsters :) Maybe that will come next year. May you all feel the peace of our Lord today and always.

2011 WVU Marching Band Armed Forces Salute

Addy thanks for that reassurance.  That thought had not even crossed my mind.  I have been thinking of Mommy a lot lately especially when I pray.  I just kind of imagine Mommy and Jesus sitting there together when I pray, kinda like talking to them both at the same time. 
Cindy I never knew you had such hidden talents.  What kind of stuff are you planning on making?  Love the picture of the before and after log:)
Lorie, I like the pictures of the next karate kid.  But what happens when Toot and Butter get into it!  Does Toot kick Butters butt? LOL  You may have to take some classes just to referee.
We went to the hospital at Greenbrier Valley last night for Danny to get a chest xray and some lab.  He said he could feel the pneumonia rattle in his chest.  Xray showed that everything is clearing up and his lab work was good.  He goes back next wednesday to make sure everything is still a go for surgery.  If he doesn't have to have anymore chemo, does anyone know how long it takes for hair to grow back in?  I keep telling him it will be thick and curly!

Hey Everybody!
I put my Christmas Tree up today and Colin was here. He has been loving on my dogs all day, and they are loving every minute of it! We played rummy and he tried to cheat! So you know I had to put a stop to that!
Teresa, I love your decorations. How many trees do you have this year? I counted 3 on 1 table! I hear you're going to have some furry company this week. Sadie is a great cuddler!
Timmy, what a buck?! I don't know why you said it was for the guys though! I definitely would have taken a shot at that! Cindy, I love the bowls! How long have you been making stuff like that. It looks awesome!
Lorie, I can't help but wonder why you let Toot take lessons that teach her how to fight? Does Vonda really torment her that much? From the looks of that kick she's already ruling the playground! I definitely don't want to be on her bad side! I wish I could have done something like that when I was little, learn the technique and all. But noooo, I had to fight dirty!
Trish and Danny, you guys have been on my mind a lot lately. As soon as I read your post about having surgery December 5th I thought "That is awesome, and something great is going to happen," and I thought for sure somebody else would have pointed it out by now! That's exactly a year to the day that Grandma went to Heaven! I can't help but think that's a sign from God. He knows He has to make it obvious for some of us (me), and I think that's a wonderful day to have surgery. Maybe Grandma will be supervising!
As always, you are all in my thoughts and prayers! Pray for a safe trip for us traveling to TN tomorrow. And Ruth, I'm sending a disclaimer home with Colin about my not being to blame if his clothes don't fit!

Cindy's Lathe work
































Cindy's Lathe Work































This summer we were fortunate to put up a 24 by 40' shop and Cindy has finally got to realize one of her long time dreams. We got her a lathe! Here are some of her first results.
Danny, Trish, we are praying for you and will continue to do so. Thanks for keeping us posted on progress. We love you.

Yeah Toots, YOU GO GIRL.
David and Julie
