"HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
To the two Men in my Life.
First I would like to say:

This is my Father Eugene (Gene) Weatherwax.
He married our Mother when we were grown into young Adults.
Ever since then he has always been there for us no
matter what the situation was. I really appreciate that as a Father.
Though he didn't know us as children he has loved us as though he did.
I admire him for taken us underwings and caring for us.
It reminds me of our Heavenly Father when He took us under His wings.
He loved us unconditionally.
That is the way my father Gene has been with us.
I just want to thank you Dad for being there for us no matter what.
We Love You Dad!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
This is my husband , James (Jim) Gerard. The Father of our three beautiful daughters.
Sarah, Ruth, and Rebecca (Becky).
He has been a great Father to the girls. He always saw that they had what they needed. He was there for them in every situation. Wether it be school supplies, money for that new pair of shoes, or Dad may I borrow the car. To walking Ruth down the isle and giving her away to the song :
Butterfly Kisses, I believe he had tears in his eyes for that song. And he is not much with tears.
Then to have his first Grandson Ethan Leon James Jackson, named after him but that wasn't all his dad came out of the delivery room saying you can tell he looks just like a Gerard. He looks just like Grandpa. He had pitch black hair as Grandpa once did. Sorry Hon all things come to an end sooner or later.
Hon I want to "Thank You" for being the husband to me and helping raise the girls for Jesus. That was so important in your life. To see your girls grow up to be the girls they are today. Again I want to say
"HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
To all you Father's May God be with you as you raise your children for Him. That He will
be first and formost in your life.
God Be With You Dad's today and always!

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!

~Alaska Here We Come~

We now have the Spring Break behind us, now we are looking on.
Yes, Ruth and Ethan are now preparing to go to Alaska for our TLC Group that goes out in the first week of June, They will first go to what they call Boot Camp for a week, then the next two weeks they will be on the field they chose to go. Wanted to share that with you all.

If you would pray for them as they prepare to go, and that God is with them as they do His Will.
I am so glad that they are able to go. Ethan is so excited. We have some friends that use to live where they are going. Fairbanks, Alaska. They are probably a couple of hours away. But I am sure some where on their journey that Ruth and Ethan will be able to meet up with them.

Thank You, for your Prayers!

Will you let me Brag a little?
Here are the 3 E's as Mommy calls them.
Ethan, Evan and Easton Jackson our Grandsons,
our only Grandchildren.
Took them to a park about 20 minutes from here in
Tquesta. It is a beautiful park a lot of times we will bring a lunch here an eat.


Here is Evan who will be 7 in July, just taking it easy on a park bench.


Then there is Easton just turned 4 in March, he thought he would try his climbing techniques.


Then Ethan who will be 8 in June, thought he would try the posing part. Thank you Ethan, great job.

Besides the Lord, the 3 E's are my "Life".
Grandma really loves you boys.


Easton tried so hard to pose isn't he adorable?

Evan did a great job didn't he? Thanks Evan Grandma loves you!


Great job done by Ethan too! Grandma loves you so much.


This is Grandmas Stairs Steps, Easton doing what he is always good at looking the other way when he sees a camera. But here I think I caught a great picture of him looking up to his big Brothers. Boys remember Easton is watching you. So be careful what you say, what you do, and where you go.
God Be With You!
