Kaiden has made up with Hershey or maybe it's the other way around. Bobbie~You asked me if the Cardinal still comes...everyday. If you look at the top of this one pic, at the top on the telephone pole, you can see the woodpecker's head. Sometimes, I get all kinds at once. I wish I had Emily's camera! I could get my Christmas Card picture. Kaiden and I are going out running around today. Got some errands to run.

Good one, Rita. Food for thought!

Rita, thanks for the reminder of who is in control, hope you don't mind ,but I put that on face book, so everyone can see it, Spread the word.Amen!!!!!!!

God IS in Control

When God permits His children to go through the furnace, He keeps His eye on the clock and His hand on the thermostat

Yea, Bobbie Ruth's head is a little hard I think , but she finally gets it Lol ,But then so is mine

You are right, Bobbie, God talks to me in threes. But I think it is just because I am hard headed! Awesome story!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WENDY!

We have beautiful bright sunshine in VA today!
That was a wonderful miracle story! "When the prayers go up, His blessing come down." Isn't it Ruth that the Lord works in 3's as well?

We had a wonderful time this weekend visiting with everyone. We missed those who couldn't be there but we were thinking about you :) Zac, you will definitely need to post more videos of those famous chipmunks lol. That was awesome!! Addy, where were the dogs while you were dancing? I thought I saw Fozzie zonked out on the couch. Paul, we are expecting to see you dancing next! Marleigh had a great time at church last night. She clapped to her little heart's content. At the end of service they sang a few more songs while closing and she was clapping some BIG claps. Then she would rub her eyes. Then clap. Then rub her eyes. She slept all the way back to Janet's then slept till 8 this morning. I think she's glad to be back in her own bed tonight though. When I put her to bed she rolled over and didn't make a peep. That will probably be me here in just a few lol!! Steve and Teresa, thanks again for everything, we love you :) If we don't see you before Easter, I guess we'll see you then. Love to all :)

Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

David & Julie-Yes, today was the day so I guess that puts me & your daughter-in-law a day apart.

Rita-Someone said that their was some dirt found somewhere a little while after you was born and no "new" dirt has been reported being found since. Sooooooooo, I guess that makes you "older than dirt"! LOL

Steve-We will take a collection to buy Elliott some tires before his next attempt to the top. Lol

Matt & Janet-Congrats again!!

Emily-It is between you & Kim for the next little one.

Addy & Paul-3rd time is a charm. Although, if I manage to find someone who is giving a tractor or 4-wheeler away, I will make sure that it is on the next truck/trailer to WV. Lol

I grew up watching "Alvin & the Chipmunks". I don't remember the episode where they added 39 more! LOL Good job Zac!!!

Everyone else who was not mentioned in the above, you are a great support cast and none of this weekend could've happened without you. With that said, Lord willing we will see you at the next "chipmunk" gathering.

Good Evening Everyone
We have had a wonderful day of worship in the house of the Lord! Our pastor was much better(he'd been sick) and his message today could not have been any better than it was. His new year's resolution is to take us all into the presence of the Lord with him. A place no one else can go for you. You must go for yourself. It was great! And so true!
Amy I hear you are returning to work tomorrow!(Like growing babies and teaching them to walk and talk is not work!!!!!!)Dah :) We wish you well and I just wanted to tell you that you will forever be the pumpkin roll story lady in my mind! And when I think of how you pulled that story together for us to remember, I know you will be a force to be reckoned with as a lawyer or judge or where ever the Lord takes you. And you were so right! It was good but it was different!
Steve and Teresa, we add our thanks as well for the beautiful, festive home to have our gathering in! I heard lots of complimentary words of praise in your honor! Thanks again
I think Easter comes at the end of April this year. Maybe it will be warm and we can do something outside!

Happy Birthday Mark! If today is the day, then you and Wendy (our daughter-in-law) nearly share one. Hers is tomorrow. Thank you for posting those videos. They were terrific. We laughed at the chipmunks. Stroke of genius to put it on at that speed. Trish was that your idea? When Devin and Kiera come over tomorrow we let them watch it and they will crack up I am sure. Daddy would have been proud of the song 'Oh Beautiful Star of Bethlehem", he loved that one so much. Congratulations Janet and Matt. But you both are spoiling Rita by giving her those beautiful grandchildren. I hope you realize that!
Glad that everyone was able to get together. Yes, Vonda, Daniel and I missed being there but Trish your Blogsite makes it possible for us all to be a part of the gatherings no matter how many miles separate us.
Love you

Happy Birthday Mark.

Happy, Happy, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARK!!! Are you older than dirt????

I had a great time yesterday and enjoyed the food and fellowship. This is what it is all about. This is why we moved back, it was worth the sacrifice. We love and enjoy being with family.

Rita, I didnt mind the moving of furniture or anything, things like that are no big deal. Hope everyone that was traveling made it back safely.

I wish everyone could have been here to enjoy the day with us. We miss you all!!!

Wow, Wow, It looks like you all had a wonderful time , just wish I could have been there to join you all,Those videos were the bomb.lol especially the 12 days of Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!! All you needed was your costumes of the chipmunks, that was great one to remember.And all the pictures were beautiful too. Congrats Rita on being a Nana Again, And Congrats to Janet and Matt. What does Olivia and Kadin think about that?And Marliegh looked like she was having a ball.So glad you all had a good time at church.I think you All did Mom and Dad very proud, I am sure they were watching, and wondering if those people were kin to them lol.Just wish I could have joined in on the celebration.Love you all.

Well, I see you all were up late last night. But we are up early this morning. ruth got up before 6. Church was really good last night. You should'a been there. We had a really good time yesterday. Teresa and Steve, Thank you for opening your home to the whole bunch of us and letting us take over. LOL...You know, moving the furniture and all...! I think we have some hidden talent in our family, especially that Partridge in a Pear Tree and those 5 Golden Rings...And maybe those 3 French Hens.
Oh, And did I tell you that we're going to be Nana and Papaw again!! When I said we were getting a new addition to the family (meaning the dog) I just didn't realize what I was saying, did I? I wonder who will be next year.
You guys should have seen Marleigh in church. I believe she is practicing to be a Worship leader! She is so animated.
Thanks Zac, for the videos. Everybody has a gift and I think that is yours.
