4th of JULY

We had fun this 4th of July with the fireworks that Steve got in South Carolina.
Ranger did not like them very much.

Pioneer Trek 2008

We have been so busy so far this summer, I haven't had time to blog.^_^ So, let me try to let y'all know what has been going on............

Chelsea went on a 14 mi. trek with 2 stakes. There were a total of 20 carts and about 12 people in each family. She had a lot of fun and is GLAD she is born in this time. I'm just glad they did not call Steve and I to be a Ma and Pa!!!!

She thinks my tractor's sexy

Boy, Steve is really loving country living!!!! When we lived in Phoenix, I had to beg him to mow the lawn...........He does it here every week (and can't wait to ride the lawn mower).

Now our landlords want to plant a garden, so they had to borrow a tractor, and Steve was right there to lend a helping hand!!!

Storm Chaser

On Mothers Day, we had several tordado warnings. I was inside tring to do some homework (watching Mona Lisa Smiles with Julia Roberts) and Steve came running in to find the camera. There was a tordado that was in our area. All the kids were screaming and the moms were trying to get them in the basement and the dads were finding cameras and running out in the road and field to get the "perfect shot"

Brush with "FAME"

Guess who we saw at our local Denver NC Wal-Mart today? You guessed it (was the picture a give away??) Jimmy Spencer. I was not convinced it was him, but Steve was adamant it was. I felt like we were stocking him, so I just went up front to pay for our "goodies" for the day. Steve then came back and said it was him, Steve went up to him and said "Hi Jimmy Spencer, how are you today" Jimmy responded "Hey buddy, how you doing"

Bend it like Beckham

Tyler decided to turn in his glove and bat and try his hand (or feet) at Soccer. This is his first time playing and he is doing pretty good!!!

Genealogy

A little girl asked her mother, "How did the human race appear?"The mother answered, "God made Adam and Eve and they had children and so was all mankind made."Two days later the girl asked her father the same question.The father answered, "Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved."The confused girl returned to her mother and said, "Mom, how is it possible that you told me the human race was created by God, and Dad said they developed from monkeys?"The mother answered, "Well, dear, it is very simple. I told you about my side of the family and your father told you about his."
