7 years ago today.

Heavy mind and heart yesterday. It was on my mind about what happened 7 years ago. My pa passed away. I love what kind of man he was. You don't find many men like that today. Hard working, loved God, kept his word. and many more qualities that could go on and on. Thankful for the time we did have but I would be wrong if I didn't admit wish I could have one of his hugs. Although it is comforting to know I will see him one glorious day! Thank you Lord for blessing me to be born in his family to allow me to be his granddaughter.

 

Geigh's 80th birthday!

Last weekend we were in Banner Elk for Geigh's birthday!

Waiting for the party to begin

The Birthday cake!

 Happy Happy Birthday to a special Grandmother!

 Somebody really loves his Geigh

 The visit isn't complete without some time with Tommy! We were surprised to look out  the window and see David Wayne wanted to get on the gator after the accident a couple of months ago. But he was in safe hands. And got a treat. An apple. It's something that he likes to eat Apples.

 He was wore out. Not sure he was feeling the best the day of the party. We hadn't even ate yet. But he would lay around or want to be held.

 Taking a walk Sat. morning at Geigh's.

Gracie and Jaelyn.

 David wasn't in the mood for a picture

A few weeks back from Thirty-One National Conference.

Thirty-One National Conference. Atlanta Georgia.  Kerri and I and the big birthday cake for the company celebrating 10yrs. Loved the sessions and classes. And of course the FREE products that they give you!
It was huge. Over 16,000 women. Next year there will be two conferences. One in Ohio and one in Colorado. I think I will head to Colorado...:)

Below were some of the company values.

 

 

And this was Jonathan's shirt that was brought home. Actually he asked for me to bring him one back.:)

Homeplace

 Having fun at home place. We all enjoyed our time in the water. Do you see that big water slide in the background? That was a 3 year old little boys favorite thing to do. Literally went up it probably 10 times.

 Having a snack

 

Grandma's House.

Headed to Virginia to see Grandma. JoAnn was in town so she was there too. While we were there the miniature pony got out. So we hiked up to Madeline and Willard's and put it back in to the fence. That was a site....haha. I think my mom out done Jonathan and I trying to get the pony back in. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids were playing hide and seek and it was the boys turn to count!

 Memories!

If you hadn't heard. Jonathan got up early around 5am because he was getting ready to start an on duty shift at work. When he went into the kitchen this is who he saw fast asleep. We might have a sleep walker on our hands. Too cute though right.

 

 

 

 

The Lerands in Town.

Amanda, Paul, Abigail and Silas were in. We saw them shortly on Monday night. They were getting ready to eat. Cookout on the deck and then kids played.
