football AND babies! Love em!

Tanner had his first scrimmage today in Wyoming county!  Tanner plays center and is always the one snapping the ball or standing right in front of it.
If you thought Meadow Bridge was redneck territory you should go there!  We pulled into THE gas station, there was only one, and at least 15 4-wheelers pulled in around me.  Thought I was surrounded!  But it was a good day. GW did well!

Then when we got home we had a nice visit with Mark, Monica and Marleigh, sorry Mark I didn't seem to get your picture.
Sorry Clara, but you are going to have to share the dog bed. Marleigh liked it too!

The pictures of all those babies is Beautiful,The Family Tree just keep's growing.What a Blessing.

This is my favorite!

Since I can't sleep I am playing with this funny pho.to thing...here is what I came up with!  I think I like it!  Brooks sure is growing and who likes the ride more?  Amy or Clara?

Brooks at 4 weeks

We will be there for Labor Day. We will be on our way back from vacation at the Outer Banks. I can make something Sunday morning to bring.

Here's a picture of Clara at the county fair today.

We have Matthew's family Reunion on Sunday.  It is their turn for Labor Day weekend as we went to Ruth's last year.  We must share the grandkids:)  However, if they finish up early there, we will certainly try to come and visit.  Don't plan on us for dinner though.  Monica, are you guys coming to mom's on Friday before lunch.  Give me a call when you get there and we may run up.  I need to go to mom's fresh produce market anyway:) haha Just don't tell dad!  Drive carefully! 

We Cycle America

This site below is a group mainly from WV that is going to cycle across America starting tomorrow.  Janice Centa is the Physician Assistant that works in the pediatricians office where I take the kids.  Pretty neat if she ran into the guy that is WALKING  across America huh?

We will be working Labor Day weekend :( I know everyone will have a good time. We will, however, be coming up tomorrow and staying at Steve's through Sunday. We hope to get to visit with everyone. We will go to Rita's first tomorrow when we get there. I'm hoping it will be sometime before lunch.

Steve and Teresa are now moved in, and they have invited us all there on Sunday of Labor Day weekend for a cookout. As of now, Mommy seems to be doing well enough to make that trip, and all of you pray that continues to be the case. Let's try to coordinate with everyone so that we all do not bring the same dishes. I believe we are to have hamburgers and hotdogs, but check with Steve on that. I will bring all the disposable products--napkins, plates, bowls, cake plates, knives, forks, spoons and cups. I will also bring a gallon of baked beans and a gallon of tropical fruit. Trish, your mac and cheese is always a tremendous hit with kids and adults alike, as is your hotdog chili, Rita. Whatever you bring, take the leftovers home with you as Steve and Teresa would not be able to use all of them. If possible, post on the blog what you intend to bring so everyone will know and not duplicate it. Also, post on the blog whether or not you plan to come so we would know how many to plan for. Lonnie does not have internet, so someone please let him know the plan. If you know of others who do not check the blog, please let them know also.

Clara seems to like the slide.  The pacifier is the first of many things that she will still of his:)  Wait until she steals his tractor...Greg, you do have some tractors for that boy, right?  If not, Kaiden is willing to...nevermind:) 

Clara got a little tired on her wagon ride

Hello, Just came from the Dr. office and he said as of Monday that Alice could do anything she wanted. They released her with a good report. Thanks for all the prayers.
Love and Prayers

Clara: A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, doesn't she?

Every chance Clara gets she steals her brother's pacifier since she doesn't get one anymore
