Henry was all smiles when I picked him up early on Friday from school and told him we were going to see Juju and the gang. He had his Gigi, juice and his DVD player playing. He was set and ready! His little squinty smile is funny stuff.We traveled to Stuttgart on our way toContinue reading “A Glimpse of Joy”

Rolling In The Delta
I get to spend the weekend with this silly bunch. Julie told me this weekend better meet her expectations! From the high side of the delta (or as us natives like to call it…”the dirty”) to the low side, we will roll on down and see them. Pine Bluff better watch out, Henry and AuntContinue reading “Rolling In The Delta”
Christmas Snapshots
Christmas means getting in the truck and traveling to see family who live afar. Sharing the season with them is what makes this special season so special. Here is a snapshot of what our travels looked like Christmas weekend. Mama’s couch is always a soft place with her girls and their babies on top ofContinue reading “Christmas Snapshots”
Turkey Times
My boys and I loaded up last Wednesday and headed west to the Lone Star state to have Thanksgiving at my grandparents. There were 25 of us. It was great fun. Marmie (my mama) loved having us there. We had not been in 5 years. Here she is stealing some love from H while heContinue reading “Turkey Times”
Food Friday
As you read earlier this week, we went to the beach. When you go to the beach you have to eat seafood. It is a given. We LOVE seafood, so we were in heaven. In fact, one of the reasons we went was for the food. We are pathetic, I know. The first night weContinue reading “Food Friday”
Beach Bums
Henry took his first trip to the beach this past week. We visited Orange Beach, on the Alabama Gulf Coast. It was great fun for all 3 of us….yet Henry had the most fun, I think! It was such a joy to watch him get hit by his first wave. I love that I actuallyContinue reading “Beach Bums”
Land o Lakes

Randall’s company hosts a family retreat each year on the Gull Lake in Minnesota and this resort seems to be a fave of the group. ItContinue reading “Land o Lakes”
Random Thoughts
A few random things.. ****The coolest thing happened yesterday. I was sweeping the floors and the name of a friend came to mind. I thought that I needed to email her and check on her. Really check on her, find out how she is really doing. A few minutes later the phone rang and itContinue reading “Random Thoughts”
Food Friday
Last week I headed to the dirty delta with the hubs. He is gearing up for planting season and needed to get some contracts signed and look at his plots. He asked me if I wanted to go, and since I am a lady of leisure at the moment I said, “Why not!”. So, IContinue reading “Food Friday”
Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion
Henry and I decided to head west on a moments notice. We set out on our journey and half way there our car decided it did not want to continue on that journey with us. It was 107 degrees that day. Thankfully we were in my old college town and we had our sweet LindseyContinue reading “Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion”
