Wow Micheal! Talking about birthday wishes coming true. You done good Wendy!

Danny I am proud of you, walking a mile everyday! Already! Trish, how does that feel, getting back into the walking? Have you found some comfortable shoes? When will the radiation start? Sometime after the 16th?
Did you cry at graduation? I did, I was so very proud of them. When I think of all they could have gotten into in High School, but didn't and they stayed in church and loving the Lord and today I couldn't be more proud of them! So, Trish and Danny you have done something else good in your life! Your kids are living proof! Did you say I didn't know them like you did! Hah! Hah! There is room for improvement in all of us!
How is your bathroom coming along? I want pics as soon as you're done with all your pretty towels displayed.

Congratulations Tanner!! Have a good time at the lake, just make sure the water is deep enough if you choose to jump in.
Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. Yes I had a great one, Julie and I celebrated albeit a quiet one. Now the week before when it was Michael's birthday was a different matter. He was born on Memorial Day, during the running of the Indy 500 so he has always loved race cars and watching races, both NASCAR and Indy type races. Well Wendy found a Richard Petty Driving experience for a bargain and hooked him up. Needless to say, he had a ball and we had great fun watching him run at Daytona Raceway. The pictures here show it all. He sure was excited to get to drive it. I do believe he hit 156 on his last lap. They told him to hang 3 car lengths behind the pace car and they would take him as fast as they were allowed to go. Boy he did it too.

Hey everybody,
We are having cake and ice cream tonight after graduation here at the house. Even if you can't make it to graduation you can come by for food! We will probably be back to the house around 8.

Happy birthday to all and congratulations Tanner!!!! I've never been to Smith Mt. Lake but I hear it's awesome, hope you all have a blast :P I'm glad to hear Danny is feeling so great :)

Congratulations Tanner! My how time flies! The next few years will go by even quicker than your high school days! Have fun at the lake next week. Just remember, the longer you stay in college, the longer you will be an adult without any real responsibility, so milk it for all it's worth!

We're so glad to hear Danny is doing much better, and walking in the mornings? Do you take the dogs with you?

2 down and 1 to go! I wonder if mommy Ever thought of it that way? He said the other day it was going to be hard looking out at the crowd knowing two of the people he loved the most wouldn't be there:(. If anyone can come tonight graduation is at 6 and it will be at the fairgrounds in the grandstand. Just look for the blue and gold:). One of his friends parents has a place at smith mountain lake and a bunch are going there on Sunday for the week. He is looking for a summer job so if anyone hears anything let me know.

Danny is dragging me out every morning around 7AM to walk before it gets too hot. We walk a mile every morning. He is doing really good. We saw dr. Hanes yesterday and she said he was doing great. So after he makes it through graduation tonight our next big hurdle will be radiation.

Love to all,
Trish

Steve and teresa the BR is looking great!

FAITH

Abel shows us that faith is giving our best to God.  He deserves our first and our best.
Enoch shows us that faith is walking with God.  It is living a life in constant connection with God, even when you can't sense or feel Him.
Noah shows us that faith is making preparations as though Christ is coming back today, even when there is seemingly no evidence.
Abraham shows us that faith is obeying God, even though you may not know where He is leading you.
Sarah shows us that faith is receiving God's promise, even when public opinion says, "No way!"
Moses shows us that faith is living life in light of eternity, and allowing that focus to affect all of life's decisions.

Rita
