Our PC got struck by LIGHTING!!

We had to get our PC repaired after it got struck by lighting. They had it for a week and we got out of the blogging rhythm but, now we're back.

Kaylee got Mono and was told by the guy who calls himself a Dr. she could not be on the flag line the rest of the marching season of her senior year. She cried I cried and her Mama cried. I wasn't satisfied with that diagnosis so I took her to a real Dr. and here's the results.

Our trip to Heber Springs

We went to see WALL-E in the coolest little converted community theater in Heber Springs, AR. It was loved by all. I even stayed awake. Our family would suggest it for all.

We also went swimming at Greer's Fairy lake and went out to eat at our now favorite restaurant The Cravin Cajun Cafe. Check out the slide show above.

Fishing on the 4th

July 4th 2008

We went over to Ron and Pat's for the 4th of July. Did a little grilling of my favorite grilled food BRATS. We did a little fishing. Then went to see fireworks in Greenbriar. Even made a video.

Healing Hands, Healing Heart

I wanted to tell you some of my experiences from my new job as a nurse! I work on the Cardiac, Telemetry floor. We get a wide range of patients; some with chest pain, some have had a heart attach, some have had a surgery and then their heart started having an odd rhythm, some need medications that can change your heart rhythm. On my floor they are all hooked up to heart monitors that are being watched. We get more practice with CPR than most other floors. Anyway it can get really exciting , stressful, scary , and wonderful. I have been called by one patient , "The BEST Butt Wipe Ever!" And there are many more "awards" I've been given by my patients. So I'll come back and tell you about some of my experiences when I get a minute. Gotta go cook right now. See you soon. Shelly

Here is a picture of Cody hitting the streets in Virgina selling alarm systems to earn money for his mission. He looks a little more tan.

Week ending 7-6-08 Cody sold 6 systems this week. Good job Cody we are sooooo proud of you!

Kaylee's Picture....

This is a picture that Kaylee drew just last week,

ATHENS, Ga. --- Uga VI, the winningest mascot in the University of Georgia’s history, died on Friday evening from congestive heart failure in his hometown of Savannah, Ga., owner Frank W. “Sonny” Seiler announced.

“He was a good one,” Seiler said. “What can I say? He had a marvelous record. He was a very strong and healthy dog. He was the biggest of all the dogs, and he had the biggest heart. It just played out.”

Uga VI, who would have turned 10 on July 22, will be buried in a marble vault in the Southwest corner of Sanford Stadium with his predecessors. The private ceremonies are expected to be held early next week.

I loved this Dawg. It was so cool to see him at the games laying on a bag of ice. UGA we will miss you!

Duke Family Movie review

We saw Get Smart this last week we all thought it was pretty good. It was pretty clean except for a butt scene at the end, Which I have to admit I laughed at.

Shelly- It was a good movie but I fell a sleep in part of it.

Shayna- I liked it a lot.

Dallin- I laughed out loud.

Kaylee- It was really funny.

Sean- I also fell a sleep, but there some real funny parts. I like Anne Hathaway.

Here is some of the Art of Shelly, Cody, Kaylee and Dallin.

A Cody update

Hey everybody, Cody is Rocking and Rolling! He has sold 3 alarm systems a week for the last 3 weeks and has plans for doing better. I wish I had had his dedication and will power when I was his age.We are so very proud of him.
