Too Much Coffee????

Jackie Brown sends me these wonderful Maxie's. This one was way to cute to pass up on this chilly, Friday morning. Have a great day and keep a smile on your face and love in your heart.

Wow, we can clean up!

We had a great time Friday with Julie. She really does miracle with a camera and we didn't break it. If you haven't check out her blog you can click over to the right of my page on Julie's Pictures and go to her blog. The boys love having her make our pictures, because they like to be natural as Clint says. Make sure you check out Clint's belt buckle, he borrowed his Poppa Harry's belt and was very proud of it as you can tell. He made Julie make a picture of him showing off the belt buckle. Our slide show is up in a few days and I can't wait to see it too. Julie you are an awesome person and you do great work. Thanks for taking our pictures.

One Sweet

What a treat to find an email from Sheila in my box this morning. She tagged me with One Sweet Treat to Read. I haven't been posting like usual, due to my dad's health. He is feeling better, but has a cold now. The boys and I went to church with them yesterday and ate lunch with them. I'm not sure if it is going to rain or not, so it's a good blogging day.

THE WINNER

Hey, Danielle this is coming your way on Tuesday. Thanks for your participation in naming our scarecrow.

Thanks To Everyone

I wanted to take this time to thank everyone who has called, sent card, and most of all kept my dad in their prayers. I am so amazed by all the out pouring of loving and kind word that me and my family have gotten this week. Dad is home and feeling pretty good, especially after some WONDERFUL Friend of mine dropped off some apple dumplings. Dad will be down for about two weeks and then he can easy back into things. Mom said that with all this attention he is getting, especially all the goodies he might not be in any hurry to get well.

I know that I am behind in blogging and will try to catch up this long weekend. My winner for the Scarecrow name was Danielle Sliger who named her Sophia. I will be posting your winning later this weekend. Thanks again for all your love and support.

I NEED YOUR HELP

This is a little project that Clint and I have been working. Now is where we need your help. This lovely scarecrow needs a name. We need it by Wednesday night. If you would be interested in buying her she will be for sale Friday night at Irving Colleges Fall Festival along with others. Each class room is making one. Curtis and I have one to make also. I'll post it later. Please vote so she will have a name for the Auction.

Fall Is Falling In

This is a fun and easy craft to do. We did these last week in class and the kids loved them. They were so excited to be able to take them home to their moms. It is amazing how you can take a paper plate, a can tab, die cut leaves and hot glue and make such a cute wreath.

Farm Bureau Farm Day 2007

How cute are we? Clint's class took a trip to the Farm Bureau Farm Day. We all had a great time. We did everything from tasting strawberry banana smoothies to placing our organs in the correct place.



This was the first attractions we saw a real roping cowboy. The kids went crazy over him.
Who is this I wonder? Mrs. Betty's husband Gary filled us in beef cattle. We know there is some good eating going on at that house.
Now, here is the scary part. Clint is placing Jordan's organs in place, because he can't remember where his dirty clothes go.

Here is the Tractor Man aka Brandon Fuston. He told us all about John Deere and how to be safe while using one of those green machines. I can remember when Brandon was this young. How old does that make me? You did a great job.

I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to all involved in the Farm Day. I know that there were children there that have never seen some of the things that were there and you gave them the opportunity to do so. I know there were lots and lots of work done to make it such a success. Just in case we forgot to tell you THANK YOU to all.

Meet The Ghost Family

Meet our Ghost Family, A mommy, daddy and two little ghost boys. The boys have been wanting to do a craft bad. When I was at Wal mart today I saw some little mummy windsocks and thought they were cute, but didn't want to pay $6 for something that I really didn't want. I got a brainstorm and went straight to the fabric department. We had a good time making them and putting them up. We hung the mommy and daddy on our porch and the two boys in our tree. My boys like to climb trees so I thought it would be a good place to hang them.
I had to make sure I had a mommy ghost. I made sure that she had a pink bow in her hair. We put spiderwebs around our doors to make it look spooky. It is amazing at how cheap you can make things this cute.

Baby Wesley Is Here!!!

Introducing Wesley Ronald Clendenon, weighing in at 7lbs. 15oz. and 20.5 inches long. He was Born on Monday, October 1st at 8:06 a.m.. Mom Kristy is doing good and they are home now. I talked to her just a few minutes ago and she said she was tired. I have never seen so much black hair. Wesley was sporting a little mohawk he had so much hair. Oh, how sweet babies are and boy do they smell good.
This is Big Sister Chelsey and boy is she proud of her little brother. She is going to be the best big sister ever. I am glad that everyone is home safe and sound. I hope Ronald will get a good nights rest in his big bed instead of the little pull out he had at the hospital. Clint was about to die to hold him at the hospital, but I wouldn't let him, so he is counting the days to get to hold him. We are all glad you are all home and WELCOME to the family little Wesley , We love you.
