Flat Grandma and Grandpa went to Jacob's football game with us this evening!

On a side note...anybody have any input on who Olivia reminds them of in this picture? =)

Are those wingtip shoes on Flat Grandpa? Stylin!

Oh Skonica~I see you've got the jump on the rest of us! That is so funny! Don't let them stay out too late.

This is one of my mother-in-laws cats. Mark caught it in the purr-fect pose :)

Well, we got Flat Grandma and Grandpa ready for a night out on the big town of Dublin. They are going to be escorted to a Decemberadio concert, I'm so excited for them !!

Theresa~Love ya, but that was the highlight of the weekend! Loving those pictures! Adam~So sorry about Taco Bell.

 

 

This was the view from where I sat!

Monica, I saw the taco bell the other day too! I was afraid it was closing for good and then I saw that it was being remodeled. whew!

addy, that picture is AWESOME! =D

Well I wish I had traveled with some of you guys! Me and Jacob came by ourselves and after about an hour and ahalf I got so sleepy and it started to rain. We pulled off the road before we even got to WV and rented a room. I had to go to sleep for about 2 hours. Then we didn't get home til about 9pm.
Jacob ended up with an ear infection and sinus infection. I took him to the dr. on tuesday. he has missed 2 days of school with it. I also took Daddy to the dr yesterday. His kidney functions are still kind of bad so she decreased his fluid pills to just 3 times a week. He hadn't lost weight but neither had he gained. Still anemic, but has been for quite a while. Mommy stayed home and rested up. They have been canning tomatoes since they got home.
Monica I love the pictures you took especially the one of Mommys hand holding the rail of the golf cart. And the one of them "snitching the seeds" They look like theives!!

All I can Say is the picture of Teresa is PRICELESS, She will never live that down.

Let's just say I may have been prepared for this...

Monica, I think those yellow flowers might be Sneezeweed.

I believe the count around the pool was 49!! Teresa passed us somewhere between Mineral Wells and Charleston so we ended up meeting with them at the Tamarak Plaza. When they left, we went on over to the Tamarak. I had never been in there before. It was neat. I'd like to go again and take a little more time. Adam had been craving Taco Bell for 2 days so we thought we would stop in Princeton for lunch (at 4pm). We came off the exit and Adam spotted the Taco Bell sign right off. As we approached, the sign underneath it read "Closed for remodeling". As we got closer and passed the building in front of it, it was closed alright. Taco Bell had been demolished and there was a little bulldozer sitting in the middle of where it used to be haha. We stopped at Long John's instead. I think we are going to go to Bridge Day on October 17th. Maybe we'll see some of you there?

Well I can't say that I'm praising the Lord about the kraut...but I just wanted to let you know that the picture of Teresa will be on the blog this evening. For those of you who haven't seen it, you're in for a treat. And if you have seen it I'm sure you'll want to see it again!

Monica~those are so good. Amy and Greg~thanks for hosting the party! You have a beautiful home and the kids loved it. I can just see about 6 kids filling the back yard! Does anyone remember how many we counted around the pool? We came as far as Mineral Wells with Steve and Teresa, (see, she's not mad at me) had lunch with them, and then we had to go our separate ways cause Teresa had to go shopping :) Mommy and Daddy were glad to be home. Mommy told Daddy that it seemed like they had been gone so long.
Remember when I made Kraut about 3 weeks ago? Well, it made, Hallelujar!! I canned tomatoes and Kraut yesterday after the kids left. Kaiden was so glad to see Papaw. He kept saying, "Papaw" like he hadn't seen him for months. Wouldn't leave his side. A raccoon got in my corn last night and ate 9 ears. I'm going to catch him tonight and shoot him in the morning!!

Grandma seemed to especially like these flowers while on our little "tour". They seem to outline the pathway where the cart went. No one seemed to know what they were though. Any thoughts?

Sunday, while we were at Amy's, I caught Grandpa helping himself to some daisy seeds. I asked them if they wanted me to get them a plastic baggy to put them in and Grandma said, "No, I'll just put them in my jacket pocket." I told her not to forget about them or they would have a washer full of flowers. Saturday, Dan took some of us on a tour of the property and I believe Grandma and Grandpa really enjoyed it. You know Grandpa was all about the flowers, plants and trees. It was very informative actually. Dan told us alot of things about this and that and I must say I had a wonderful time.

Letha, Gary, Mike and Janis: I am so glad that I got to spend time at Mommy and Daddy's with Uncle Lee and Aunt Carol after the 4th. I will always treasure those memories, especially the ones where we all sat down to big meals with the thanks to God and all the wonderful food! Your dad seemed to especially enjoy that also.

Letha, Gary, Janis and Mike,Your Dad will be missed by all the family, May God be with you all.The first time I ever got to leave home and spend time with anyone it was with your Mom and Dad in Waynesville Ohio , for about a week , you guys were all little But I really enjoyed it. Love to you all.
