Outing with friends

| July 12, 2009

Yesterday was a busy day for my clan. Quinn had to work but I didn’t have any dogs on a Saturday for a change. One of the adult Sunday school classes has partnered with the fourth grade class this year and they had a field trip to Lynnville Tn. The Hagewood’s have a lake side [...]

Campers

| June 28, 2009

  We had two campers this weekend. Holly and Rudy are my most frequent campers and to tell the truth…my favorites. They are as different as night and day but completely adorable in their own way. We took before and after pictures this time. I guess they are really after and after pictures. The first [...]

Everybody had fun at the creek. It was really humid that day so it was fun to wade in a cool creek. It is truly a beautiful spot and we enjoyed God’s glory played out in nature.         Georgia had a blast splashing around but Mack wasn’t having any of it. He [...]

Hot Tubs and Heavy Equipment

| May 1, 2009

It is a really rainy day here today but as you can see, everyday is beautiful. You can see a few puffs of fog in the distance. That is why I call it Gatlinburg north. Lovely!   We also got a loader in the front yard today. The logging guy brought it in preparation for [...]

Visit with Holly

| April 10, 2009

Holly came to “camp” this week. Holly is one of the dogs I groom and her parents were able to go out of town this week for some working R&R so Holly came here. My boys love this little dog so much. She is a Yorkie-poo but she is a very sturdy and enjoyable dog. [...]

Happy Birthday Samuel!

| March 25, 2009

It is hard to believe that my baby is 10 years old!  They are growing up so fast.  We got up this morning and went to IHOP (International House Of Pancakes) for breakfast.  We did remember the camera so we are going in the right direction, however, we forgot to use it!   Samuel ordered a [...]

Chicks out for a walk

| March 18, 2009

This morning the boys and I got up early to go to the Ben Roy Science Show.  It was very cool.  We saw the Tesla Coil, a Hydrogen flair, a glow stick made and a ping pong ball shoot through a soda can.  The boys love science and the cool things you can do.  We [...]

Taking a walk

| March 1, 2009

It is very cold here today.  It is also very windy but it seems that is always windy.  My baby chickens are scheduled to arrive tomorrow and in all of my reading  Joel Salatin said that creek sand was good grit for chicks.  I know there is a creek down the hill from our property [...]

7 Random odd and interesting things about me

| February 27, 2009

Well, my friend Eren McKay has tagged me on her blog. For those of you who don’t know, tagging is something that is all the rage on the internet right now. Eren was tagged by a friend so she had to write about herself and then tag others. So here is my attempt not to [...]

After the Storm

| February 12, 2009

Well,  it definitely has been an exciting 24hours.  Yesterday we had 40 mph wind gusts but we only lost one tree that we know of.  This tree was broken at about 6 feet up, but the top of the tree was wedged into the “Y” of a neighboring tree, so that it was leaning at [...]
