Bike Rides and Soft Ball


Papa getting ready to take our 4 oldest Grandbabies to the Metro Parks for a little bike riding and lunch. While they were gone this ol' Grammy used my time wisely and got some cleaning and laundry done...I just love cleaning when I am all by my lonesome. Nothing more relaxing to me.


Bye Bye everyone...enjoy the lunch I packed and come home really tired...lol They rode 10 miles on those trails and it was hot!


Have fun...the crying started before they even left the drive-way cause Em whacked Xavie upside the head...she said there was a bug on his forehead!!! Hmmm...


Fall Ball has begun...does anyone know why they call it Fall Ball? It starts in August and ends before fall has arrived!! Any hoo...this is our Maddy on 3rd base. Oh, and they won!!!


The boys Ian and Elek sharing Pizza...I think that the Concession Stand is the highlight of the games for these two. Isn't it an amazing thing to watch our Grandbabies grow up? What Blessings they are!

Love to All!

Nothing Much


Hibiscus the size of dinner plates...


Passion plant...I anxiously await these blooms...sweet memory of my late brother-in-law Mike.


When I was taking the photo of this Bee, Xavie came along and asked " Grammy what are you doing?" I answered " Gram's taking pictures of all these Bees" and he quips "Did they say cheese?" That boy cracks me up!

It is a cool, damp morning. And I am, of course sitting on our back porch enjoying my first cup of coffee. Summer is winding down and the landscapes are changing. Some of our perennials are finished for the season while others are
here until the frost gets them as the cold weather arrives. There are lots of black eyed susans, hibiscus and passion plants...their pretty faces lifted towards the sky. Which this morning is gray with no sign of the sun peeking out...yet.
So, I am enjoying some peaceful, alone time. Which won't last long, since I expect Em and Xavie to come busting through the gate at any time. Then, I assure you, all signs of tranquility will be long gone.
This ol' Grammy hasn't had much to say lately. My mind is occupied and every time I sit down to write, I end up thinking to myself...don't feel like blogging at the moment and off goes the computer. So, if you don't find me here for awhile...don't dismay. LOL... But rest assured I will be checking on all of you. I pray God's blessings in your lives. Much Love!

Lord Help Us

This was posted on my Facebook this morning by my cousin Wendy...Lord, right now I feel anguish for this world. Signs of your coming everywhere. The Government takeovers leading to the mark of the beast...God, forgive me. Help me to hit my knees in anguish over those who are fooled by a sense of Christianity that asks nothing of them...Help us Lord?

Howdy


Daddy and Bobby at the Carter family reunion 1996

Hey Ya'll...yes, I have already started using my Southerndrawal! Doesn't take me long. Kell, always laughs at me cause I start twanging so quickly...maybe, it's got something to do with my being born here and living here for the first 3 years of my life! Anyways, things are going pretty good, Mama is hobbling around looking like Herman Munster in her big ol' black boot! I am keeping myself busy, cleaning, laundrocizing and cooking! Made fried chicken and potato salad yesterday, today is stuffed cabbage and peach cobbler.
My sister and hubby are coming up for a visit. Later this evening I will visit the cemetery and have a chat with my Daddy...I miss him soo!!! Thank God in His wisdom for He worked things perfectly... so that my Tomer and I could get here quickly and be a help to my brother Bobby. Pray you are all well...I can't always get online since they are working on things down in these hills. we have experienced intermittent periods of no service...sigh. Blessings...hope to check in later.

Love to All!

Homeward Bound


Can't wait to see these signs!



Please pray for Tomer and I as we make the journey home to Tennessee? We were going for a visit later in the week. But my brother called today with the news that Mama fell and broke her foot. So, we will leave tomorrow that way I can take her to the Orthopedic Dr. on Wednesday and my brother won't have to miss another day of work.
Blessings...talk to you next week sometime.

Love to all!
