6 pictures for you

Just to explain a few pics we took while visiting Vonda...We surprised
Teresa with a little birthday party...cake and all. The one of Ruth
and Bobbie is where they are analyzing Mommy's flower blooms...they
are their mother's daughters...at least they look like her in her
gowns! And Vonda looks so pretty, don't you think? I took some of us
all but I must have had the camera on the wrong setting because I
didn't get not one of them! And we all looked so good after church!

11 point buck


I got the 11 point this morning eating apples in the drive way.

Saturday, October 22, 2011




Mark carved Marleigh's pumpkin this evening too.  For some reason she still isn't a fan of the guts in the pumpkin.  She started crying when I put her close to it but yet she used her little spoon and played in the guts in the bowl :P  Anybody have any recipes for pumpkin seeds?  Adam has a hankerin' for some.  I tried to get him to take ours but he didn't think they would keep until he could fix them.

So I tried the fried kool aid (cherry flavor) this evening.  I would recommend heating the oil on medium heat.  I started out with it on high and it was burning them before 30 seconds I would say.  I turned the heat down to medium high and waited till they were "golden brown".  They were looking like beautiful little squids (lol) and I couldn't wait to try them.  In the process I was unaware that I was smoking the kitchen and living room up :P  We had to open the patio door and cut the ceiling fan on.  It was a lot of batter so I quit with what you see here.  I opened the first one and batter oozed out.  I opened several more and the same thing.  I went through all of them and all but maybe 3 hadn't cooked all the way through :{  This was a learning experience so next time I'll know.  Mark said they could be a little sweeter.  I only used 1/4 cup sugar.
This is Rita. We are at Vonda's and the sun is coming out and it looks to be a pretty day. We are going out shopping for a while today. Vonda went to feed David breakfast. Trish, how is Danny? We all miss you but we know you are where you should be. Loved seeing his pic. Lorie, Hope you have a good visit in WV. Your dogs were quiet last night. TTYL

Hey Lori , enjoy your time at the house. I had made plans for my seminar in Morgantown awhile ago. Make Lonnie be your tour guide, he is a good one when he wants to be.

Trish , do you and Danny need anything? Call me, I am free on Mondays now if you need anything. Tell Danny, I know I can take him down now. He told me the other day this was probably the only time I could take him.

Everyone be safe on your travels.

Trip

Not really a tour guide just want some company. Marcia has to go to Morgantown for the weekend for classes and the ladies will be up here. We don't want to come all the way down to visit and get no visiting done. Lonnie is working too. Trish we are hoping we can see you and Danny on Sunday if even for a little bit. Steve if you come up to Lonnie's can you grab Jacob from wherever he is staying. I told Trish he can stay with us for the weekend so he can visit with the girls :) We are leaving around 5 in the morning> Shawn's cell is 313-492-2979 and mine is 734-493-2391 if anyone needs to reach us. I would ask that the family pray for safe travels for all that are on the move tomorrow.

Trip

Trish, tell Danny to hang in there. I think Teresa is going with the sisters to see Vonda. Lorrie is coming down here I think and I am sopposed to be some kind of tour guide? 

Steve Treadway

We ladies are going up to see our oldest sister! We begin our first leg of our trip this evening, so say a prayer for traveling grace for this weekend. I wish I could get in my car and go anywhere like the rest of you do, but that doesn't seem to be my lot in life! Somebody speak some words over me!!!!!!! Anyway we hope for a good visit in the Lord and lots of encouragement for life!
We are praying for you Danny. I stood in prayer for you on Sunday at a visiting church and God moved with His presence. I am thanking him ahead of time for the wonderful testimony you will give one day! We are overcomers by the word of our testimony and the blood of the Lamb!!! Praise the Lord!
Fried Kool-Aid Recipe

Ingredients:

Vegetable oil (for frying)
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup Kool-Aid
3 eggs
1/4 of sugar (Want it sweeter? Add more)
1/2 tsp. of salt
2 tsp. baking powder
2 cups milk
3 2/3 cups of flour

Optional:

1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. dark chocolate (melted)
1 tsp. honey

Make the batter by beating the eggs and sugar together. Gradually add the milk and dry ingredients, including the optional ones. Cook in hot vegetable oil until golden brown (a few minutes, depending on heat). Cool in tray for a few minutes, then dig in.

Monica, Zanesville is east of Columbus on I-70 (a couple of hours from us). We never felt any danger from the animals. Apparently there is one monkey still on the loose.
Good morning or should I say what a terrible night. Danny didn't sleep well at all. He was staying on top of the fluid at first but it's catching up with him now. His shoulder and arm hurt all night from surgery, it's been 5 months since he had his surgery and he still can't sleep on that side. The nurses and all the staff are wonderful kind and friendly so that helps. Yesterday morning a police officer came into our room at 730! The first thing I thought was I had been caught on camera doing something:). Someone hit our car while parked in the garage. Hit the bumper and messed it up. Thank goodness she reported it. She actually works here in the cath lab. Her insurance adjuster is coming to our house Tuesday.
Monica what exactly is fried kool aid? Your retreat sounds nice. Oh and make sure you get plenty pictures of marleigh pulling the guts out of her pumpkin:0)
I will get Eloise's address and her brother was her dads son not her moms. But I am sure he would appreciate a card.
What trip is everyone taking?
Will update later! Thanks for the prayers:)

Our puzzle of the day!

Thank you for using Picture and Video Messaging by U.S. Cellular. See www.uscellular.com for info.

This is Janet on mom's computer. Monica~ What is frying kool-aid? Please share.

Teresa~ Happy Birthday! Love u
Trish, it's good to hear from you!!  I was just thinking about you and Danny and wondering if you went to UVA yesterday.  We are enjoying the changing colors of the season as well.  I love the pics too.  Was it windy on the Bridge?  It's been quite windy here for about a week.  I was shocked to see Rita in her apple butter get up myself LOL!!!  I wasn't aware Miss Fashionista had an outfit like that :P  It looks like you guys had a good time though and everyone took their turn.  Happy Birthday to everyone!!!

Ruth, how far is Zanesville, OH from you and Amy?  I'm sure you have heard of the wild animals that escaped from a preserve there, I hope so anyway!!  I saw it this morning on the Today Show and it was on the front of yahoo right before I checked the blog.  They say there are only 2 remaining to be found out of 51.  No doubt everyone in the surrounding areas have been on edge since yesterday.  Vonda's hometown made the Today Show as well this morning.  Some guy, who was intoxicated, let his 9 year old daughter drive him to the store.  Someone had called it in to police and there was surveillance video from the store.  She seemed to be a very good and cautious driver for that age according to witnesses. 

We have a church that is across from mom and dad's that is having a women's retreat Friday evening and Saturday from 9-3.  I plan on going to that with one of my friends.  I'm excited!!  I've never been to one and it's going to be nice from what I hear.  Saturday evening we plan on carving Marleigh's pumpkin and I'm going to try frying kool aid (yeah)!!!  I'll let you know how it turns out.  You traveling ladies have a wonderful trip, be safe and enjoy your time of fellowship.  Love to all 

As u can see we have plenty going on beside the cancer center:)

Father God: Wrap Eloise's family in your arms and comfort them with your peace that surpasses all understanding.

Be with Danny as he undergoes his second round of chemo. Cause it to do its healing job, keep him from getting sick and cause his body to respond favorably. Sustain him and his entire family physically, spiritually and emotionally as he goes THROUGH this fire, and bring him to the other side WHOLE in body, spirit and soul. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
Trish, I was wondering about Danny!  I'm glad you posted.  I personally, like to hear how his day is going, so post all day long if you want to.  Post some pics.   As for the picture, I'm pretty sure Addy has already posted it on facebook!   I'm glad I'm not on there...I'm sure I don't want to hear the comments.  Would you email Eloise's address so we can send her a card...her Mom's too.  That is so sad.  


~Rita~
Good morning from Charlottesville VA, where the leaves are still semi green. We have really enjoyed the pictures of everyone enjoying Fall. The pictures of bridge day are soooo goood. And the apple butter pictures are priceless. Kaiden with his shades and stirring it up are so cute. Rita I am wondering if I can put the picture of you in shorts and boots stirring the apple butter on facebook? Lol
Danny's last two weeks at home have been rough for him. His white count dropped to zero for am few days and he was home bound. Platelets got close to transfusion level. His numbers came up just in time for round 2. Dr grosh is decreasing the dose by a smidgin to hopefully prevent them from dropping so low. They didn't start his chemo til 9 last night so that means he won't finish til late Saturday night or Sunday!

Say a prayer for Eloise Wallace's family, they found her brother dead in bed this morning. He is in his 40s with a baby on the way, they think it was his heart. His name was mark estep.


Happy birthday to everyone this month with birthdays!
Happy Birthday Teresa!  I hope your day is Special!  I'm sure Mr. Wonderful will see that it is!!  

~Rita~

Happy Birthday Teresa.

Teresas Birthday!

Happy birthday to Teresa. I love you baby.

Father God: As Emily drives to her interview, place a hedge of protection around her; give her a safe trip. Since you do not give us a spirit of fear, cause your peace to overtake her. You say that You will keep us in perfect peace if our minds are staid on You. You say that You will give us the desires of our heart. So, cause her to find favor in her interview.

Monday, October 17, 2011

Hey everybody. I have an interview for med school tomorrow at Marshall at 2:15. I am driving there myself (for the first time) and would appreciate it if you could pray for my driving and for my nerves. Thanks! Love y'all!

4 pictures for you

We are making apple butter with all those apples Mommy had canned.
You can't help but notice who the lazy one in the bunch is! Blain,
being the religious man that he is, and Knowing that Sunday is a day
of rest....Well, He wouldn't have it any other way. We started at 5
this morning and we made biscuits and had a sample about 9. We're
having Chili and Cornbread for lunch, if any of you want to run up!
We'll post more later. It is the perfect day for it except for the
wind. We had to put it between the buildings but Blain said, the
closer to the woodshed, the better. Much closer and we would be IN
the woodshed!

James 1:22 says: “Be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” When we think about being doers of the Word, we sometimes get the idea that God is laying out dos and don’ts, or rules that constrict and limit us. In reality, when God shows us things in the Word, we see promises that unleash life to us and in us. So when James says, “Be doers of the Word and not just hearers”, he is saying that when we discover a promise, we should mix faith with it. In other words, just do it, because behind the revelation of the promise, God’s intent is that you would have life and have it more abundantly. He’s not trying to rule you or dominate you; He’s trying to bless you. When you discover a promise in the Word of God don’t wonder, “Why? Why can’t I? Why don’t I?” Don’t “why” yourself into death’s grip, but just “do” yourself into life.

Be a doer!

Danny and Trish:

Here is a word for you today: Hebrews 10:23: Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

Be tenacious in holding onto God's promises. Aggressively pursue God, study His Word, and build up your faith.

I need all my brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews to touch heaven in prayer for my brother Curtis. Please pray! I have asked Rita to go get him with me so we are leaving here in a little bit. Please pray for our safe travels. Love you all!

Hey All
Monica and Lorie, I loved the pics.  Teresa, I am glad you are back on here.  It's been really quiet lately.  I really like the slide idea on the hill side.  I bet Steve could probably get some help from say, Lonnie and Shawn, and Teresa, you could have your own fall festival.  Throw out some pumpkins seeds out on the hillside below the orchard and by Oct., you would have plenty for decoration.  You could rig up something for a hayride up in the woods, make you up some Apple Cider, incorporate some help from your family and friends, and you would have a wonderful Fall Event.  Maybe even a Craft Show.  O What Fun!  The family could make plans to come, enjoy, and help clean up. =)  We could even make Apple Butter.  
I love this time of year...The leaves are beautiful on the Mtn and the weather couldn't be nicer.  It is Soup time and I can't wait to see what Ruth is Cookin' Up!~!  She must be cookin' up somethin' with all them recipes!

Danny, We are still praying for you and the rest of the family.  Keep agreeing with what God says,  no matter what things look like.  God says that by His stripes, you were healed.  Praise God!

~Rita~
I love all the new pics of the kids on here. Monica~Marleigh is just the cutest and she doesn't seem to be afraid of anything. I hope that was mud she was picking off. I will get Steve right on that slide thing, it will only be project 586 maybe. haha So many projects, so little time. Definitely have to put safety features on it so nobody gets hurt. (Addy)
Lorrie~I also enjoyed seeing your girls on here, hope they had a great time visiting their pawpaw.

Me and Steve mowed both fields Saturday and Sunday and cut down some trees and bushes and cleaned off the dead flowers coming up the hill, so all in all we had a pretty productive weekend. Have to weed eat the yard and maybe cut down some apple trees that are dead out in the orchard this week. My kids are coming in for bridge day this weekend and I think Kaye, Billy, Nicki, and Charley are coming also. (Maybe Kim's parents too) We should have a house full this weekend.... I love it. Hope the weather is nice, it gets really cold on that bridge.
