Memorial Day With The Family

Our daughter Becky had to work today. But it worked out that she worked a

splitshift today. So she was able to go on a picnic with us today before she went back to work.

We took a few pictures while out today.

Of course this is my gorgeous husband, Jim beside me.

This is part of the park that we went to.
Acturally it is at the Children's Museum.

After we ate our picnic lunch, the girls took the boys a walk on the dock.

Here the boys were playing.

Before we left I wanted to picture of the boys with us.

Easton 4, Evan 7 in July, and Ethan 8 in June.

Then I wanted one of Jim and I.

I pray all of you had a safe and wonderful

Memorial Day!

Did you remember to "Thank Those that have Served or are Serving?

I do want to Thank you for you sacrifice to keep our country free.

May God Bless Each Of You!

~Thank You~

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM ON 2009

Mom this is just for you today.

Wanted to do something to let you know that we are thinking of you on this great day!

Your day.

I am so sorry that we are not able to be there with you.

Even though we were not there with you I want you to know

our hearts are there with you. We are praying for you.

It is so wonderful to see you serving the Lord.

It means a lot to be able to see where you have been and where you are going today in your spiritual walk with Jesus.

Keep your hands in Christ's and things are going to go better for you.

This picture was taken just before we left Michigan on my Mother's Birthday.

I love this picture of you Mom. Becky had taken one night while we were there just before we left.

This picture is one that was taken just before we left.

My brother Jack, and my father in back row. Then it is Me, my sister Sandy, then Mom Joyce Beverly.

Mom we want you to know if we could have been there we would have been.

Our Prayers are with you.

I pray you have a Wonderful Day!

~Happy Mother's Day~

Mom

We Love and Miss You.

Did you say First Place?

On April 25, 2009 Ethan and Evan, participated in an Arts/Crafts Competition.

It is called FAACS. (don't ask me what the letters stand for I do not know. )

Ruth and Becky were able to go, so they did get a couple of pictures.

Here Evan is standing next to his entry the beautiful beach scene. He did it in acrylics on canvas. He did a very good job. That is a red crab at the bottom of the stone on the left of the pictures.

Now they did not actually get to be part of the competition, but they were judged. Evans was the first name they called out. He was placed at the Best Ribbon you can get. He received 1st. place.

Way to go Evan, great job well done. You did a great job. Even if Grandma says so.

Then here is Ethan with his beautiful Diorama display. He even placed a tiny little shell that he painted red, to make a crab. There is a hammock between the two palm trees on the right. He has a sea turtle by her eggs. All this stuff was chosen from the out doors. It is real sand on the bottom of the box.

Ethan scored 199 on his 1 st place, it I was told by one of the art directors that Ethan's was the highest score in the whole contest. Of course I am bragging. They did a great job

Way to go Ethan, Grandma is really proud of you. Keep up the good work. Well, so much for the bragging I guess. Just had to share the excitement. Thanks for stopping by!
