God's Promise

A DOUBLE RAINBOW.......isn't it amazing and soooo beautiful!


This was in the sky last night around 6:00pm. Hope that many people were able to see this work of art by God.......God's promise to NEVER destroy the Earth by a flood again.


My 100th posting......lets celebrate!


Wow....hard to believe that I have had enough things to talk about and share with you to reach my 100th Posting.

Look at what I made....

My new fall wreath.....



Not bad for 17 bucks (bought everything at Hobby Lobby at half price of course).....getting ready for fall and cooler weather.

Frank is OvEr the HiLL......BIG 60!!!!!


We surprised Frank (my father-in-law) with a family birthday/grill out party for his 60th birthday on August 31, 2009. Almost all of his side of the family attended the gathering in his honor. I grilled out whole chickens (well, I tried to grill them....had a slight problem with the chicken and the charcoal). We had all the fixins': baked beans, slaw, potato salad, boiled okra, dressed eggs, salad, rolls, corn, and spinach dip. Had to make some minor adjustments for the meat......thanks goodness for Aunt Debbie's pork roast and Whitt's BBQ......

The kiddos helping Granddaddy/Uncle Frank blow out the candles. Had a few trick candles on there too......60 candles in all....almost needed the Fire Dept! From left to right: Noah, Waylon, Rylee, Sarabeth, Frank, Caleb, Isabella and Hope.


Frank and his boys: Seth, Ezra, Frank, Taulbe, and Adam
Rare occasion to get all of them in a picture together!



Frank with his sisters, Cellie and Debbie!


Franks REALLY enjoyed his surprise party. He knew that I was cooking supper for him, but he did not know that his extended family was attending. His boys and their families went in together and got him an iPod touch. We wish you many more birthdays and thank you for always making us smile!

The Tooth Fairy visits Sarabeth

Last week while Sarabeth and Noah were at my house (I pick them up from school on Fridays), Bethany (her moma) pulled Sarabeth's first tooth while at our house. Glad moma was there to do it and Tot (me) did not have too. :) I gave Sarabeth her first dollar to add to her tooth fairy money collection. SMILE :)

This past week she lost another tooth on the bottom.

Thrifty Mondays








I am joining Southern Hospitality for Thrifty Mondays. Thought I would share some rooster bowls that I purchased about a month ago at TJMaxx. The bowls are hand-painted and were a steal at $1.00 each. Got all that they had....six of them which was the exact number that I needed. Thinking Tablescape Thursday........
