Hello Everyone! This is a picture that David sent us this week by email. Isn't it a precious picture of Cort at the wedding. We had the privilege of having him here with us from Wednesday through Sunday. He and Papaw went to feed the fish every day...worked in the garage...played...watched "Gus" again....made popcorn and drank Cokes....went swimming...laughed alot...tickled alot...and had the best time. My job is to fix him food...make sure he takes his naps and brushes his teeth....and make sure he laughs alot. We had a wonderful time with him. He started school yesterday. If you think about it, please pray with us that he'll have a wonderful year in First Grade. He is growing up so quickly!


This is another picture that David sent...and with his never ending humor, he wrote in the email, "DJ, you should have smiled!" This was at the end of the wedding, and I think Cort had intended to "escort" Grandma Miles out, but got timid at the end...thus, the shy little smile. I love this picture of them! By the way, DJ got hurt this week...he was jumping off the pier at Santee to secure a trout line, and jumped onto a stump...he had to get 22 stitches in the "arch" part of his foot...he'll be off of his feet for ten days.


This is an old picture (well, at least 3 months old!) of Donnie and me on the motorcycle. This was taken by Mrs. Winnie. When I saw it, I said, "NOW, I know why everyone we pass on the road has this huge grin on their face!" I thought they were just happy for us, but I realize we look like a couple of nuts, but oh, the sheer joy of riding in the wind and looking skyward and praising the Lord for the abundant life He gives us. I told my husband that I just LOVE the "fifties"...cause nothing hurts, the kids are all grown, and it's a wonderful time to be alive and serve the Lord. You all go out and have a blessed day!
