his girlfriend Jordan,(she so sweet)

The boys & my daddy,Nothing like pawpaw, :o)

Stephen (the oldest grand child)with his to sweet ;) girlfriend Erika,
I got a g:);)d feeling someday she will be my niece-in-law,
They sure know how to pick pretty girls.!

Look at all that food,& it would'nt even
fit into the picture,food was everywhere!!

This is my little brother Cody ,yall didnt know I had
a brother 19 years younger than me, did you ??
My wonderful mawmaw with my children,
Me & Daddy, so in love :o)
This is my sister Robins children,(the next set of grandkids that came along)
Brenda leigh 17,(in the gray) Haleigh 13,
& Dustin 15,
This was our first Thanksgiving in about 6 or 7 years that we got to see them,
God has been so good to us this year,
And now,,**For what I was Thankful for the most,at this time on thursday was this picture,

ALL, 11 of my mama & daddys grandchildren together for the first time,
We have never been able to get this picture in the past years,
I still cant believe it, I cry every time I think of my mamas & daddys face as they looked at them all,
You may have the perfect family & this may not mean anything to you ,but it sure means alot to me, my family is not perfect ,drugs are in our family & it has destroyed it,
Mine & Jims family(out of us 4 sisters) is the only one who is not split up,
Do you know why ???
Because God picked us up out of drinking, drugs,lying & cheating 5 years ago saved us & put my family together,, What a WONDERFUL GOD we serve.
LORD I'm Thankful today for my family !!!
Please pray for these 11 children,
they are my heart ,But they need God,
he's the only one, that when they have a family,
He can keep it together.
(kids I want yall to know I pray for you day & night,I love you all SO much)

The 3 at top are brothers,my oldest sister Renees 41 , Stephen 21-Aj 19-Bobby 17.
The next 3 are my sister Robins 35 ,Brenda leigh 17-Dustin 15-Haleigh 13.
The next 4 are mine 31,Emily 13(shes my step baby:) my twins Dillon ,Dakota 12-Cheyenne 9.
And the baby of all the grandkids is the one with his arms crossed :)My sister Rhondas 39-1 & only child is, Spencer 8.(she said she isnt crazy like we are.haha)

But the girls rule,(they think)

I sure hope your Thanksgiving was a BLESSING like ours,,

Why are weekends so Busy ??

Does anyone know why weekends are so busy ?

When its the weekend , you are suppose to rest & not have to work.

Welcome to my weekend :o)
The redo of our SIDEWALK.....
,
With all the flooding that has been going on the past few months
our sidewalk began to look like a "waterwalk" or mush walk,it was ugly,
So daddy said we needed to do something,

As they worked on that,(daddy & the boys)
Me & cheyenne, did some cutting of bushes & flowers for the winter,

This is what one of my flower beds looked like before,
& if you look to the left of the side walk in the picture above this is what it looks like now.

I know what most of you are thinking,
"Its ugly now"
Thats the same thing my husband says every fall when I do this,
But if you want them to do better next year, you better cut back.
My mawmaw (Ms Green thumbs) taught me that.





My chidren are very hard workers,:o)


This is the end product,of the sidewalk,
Looks much better !!

After the hard work of the sidewalk & bushes,,

Cheyenne found some bugs(rolypoly's) to play with,
My kids are also not scared of anything.

I took the time to take some Fall pictures of my dogs,
that I love so much.



****Molly****

****Trudy****







This dog is so happy all the time,,,:o)




Out of these two Trudy is the boss,,


So at the end of the day,.
I cooked a home made pizza for everyone.


Cheyenne had someone over to spend the night,
On yesturday, the kids had more children over between church times,
But when dont we have other children over ??
But thats ok with me,because it helps my children to have something to do..
We had to be back at church at 4;30 for play practice,
So yesturday was as busy as saturday<:o)
Oh ! & I must tell you, we had someone to get saved yesturday, how wonderful is that???
Well is any of ya'lls weekends ,always busy,? Do you ever have a weekend that you dont do ANYTHING ??
...May God Bless you all with a wonderful week...
