Do you remember how summer used to be so long? By the end of summer, your mom sent you outside and you were ready to come in before she wanted you to come back in.
"I'm bored, what is there to do?", was the typical end of summer kid phrase. Sometimes we even used it the 2nd day of summer!
A great rainy day in Tennessee - my grass looks wild!

Surprise!
Our little girl has graduated! Sandy has a bachelor's degree - hip hooray! We all snuck (or sneaked) over there and surprised here - if you don't know, she LOVES surprises. We had a great time and the food was great.
PS Accept these photos for Saturday and Sunday - our power was out much of last night so we are really off track.

Adoption
I have to be at the office at 5 am this morning, so I am just posting a link to our friends website. They live in San Antonio and go to Castle Hills Christian Church where we attended.
They are currently in China picking up their new daughter Claire! How exciting!! Please check out their web site and experience the joy that God is showering upon them as they enjoy their new daughter.
Here is the link.

Top of the morning to you
Good morning - here is a pretty face to get your day going! Taken back in March.
We had a fun weekend - we did some small projects around the house and we went to Cumberland Caverns on Saturday. It was a lot of fun - and a lot of walking.
We checked out some other stuff in the area as well - the caverns were only about an hour away from us. This is pretty country.

Count your blessings
Here are three of my blessings - thank you God!
Charlie and Anita Blair stopped by yesterday as they traveled from Virginia and on toward home - what a great visit - they looked terrific!
It may be okay living so near a major east and west highway!

Crocs are for kids
I love these on my grandkids, but I have to be honest, they are ugly on adults. Sorry for admitting this to all of my friends. Fishnet shirts are comfortable too, but I won't wear those either.
Can you guess whose shoes and legs belong to which grandkid? Pretty easy, huh?

Balancing Act
Neidon the magnificent will now walk and balance a cup on his head at the same time. Of course, the hat never comes off! And he is wearing his favorite t-short from a VBS at Castle Hills Christian Church that he never attended either. Clothes make the man, as they say.
Have a great day - good luck with your own balancing act, whatever that may be!

Citizens of Cookeville
Well, a month ago we were pulling into our driveway and wondering what in the world we had done!
A few days later we had visitors and all doubts were gone! We're closer to the grandkids - and those people who live with them.

Rainy Saturday
Good morning! We saw some fireworks from our front porch last night, but it was raining a little so we didn't want to climb the hill near us for a better view - next year!
It rained most of the night and is still overcast this morning. It's not been as dry as central Texas, but it has been dry for these here parts. The rain is a welcome sight!
Have a great weekend and someone in San Antonio - buy my house!

"It ain't over till the fat lady sings"
Dan Cook, a sportscaster from San Antonio, who introduced us to San Antonio sports and was a fixture there many of the years we lived there, died last night.
He introduced the phrase "It ain't over till the fat lady sings" along with many other colorful phrases over the years.
So long Dan!

Hiding
Kaireia likes to hide - and she likes it better when you are trying to find her - and the best part of all is when she is actually found.
Have a great 'Friday' on this Thursday and enjoy the long three day weekend if you have one.
What a great country we live in - thank you to our soldiers and veterans!

Don't yell in my ear!
In reality, what appears to be a marriage counseling session, is actually Kaireia standing several feet behind Neidon and laughing at Cindy who is not in the photo. For us married guys, it is a little spooky though!
Well, we have Tennessee drivers licenses now - are we official yet?
The last few evenings it has been cool when we do our evening walk and it is down to 60 degrees in the mornings - brrrr. Our blood has thinned down, anything below 80 is cold to an old Texan.
Off to Nashville today - look out Andrew Jackson!
