Tim had to have his "hoohoo" recircumscized today.  He is sleeping now but doing well. The doctor said all went well.  Lets see how the next few days go.  I am bored right now, so thought I would catch up on my site. 

Our garden is doing exceptonally well.  We have picked about 18 canlopes and still have a patch full coming.  Squash, Okra nd Cucumbers have been in abundance.  We are still waiting on the tomatoes to ripen, but the green beans are starting to come in.  Nothing like going out and picking dinner.

It has turned into quite the family project. Tim and I go down to the garden that he built in the Mule Pasture every night after dinner.  The mules come down to greet us before we go in.  Tamy brings friends and family over to it so they can see how many watermelons and cantaloupes we have. Justin always call to see if Tim got whatever part he needed for the race car that day, and Big D sometimes goes in just so he can call Tim and tell him what he is doing wrong with it.

I just cut up 8 Canteloupes for the freezer.  Yum!  I must be having a boredom moment....so rare.

This is it, the promised DIVAS Picture.  If you can't tell, this was taken in 1970.  Auntie Glenda, love the white shoes with the bow. This is an older scrap, (pre masters classes), but one to treasure, just because of the photo. It is the onle we had in our family of all of the Aunts with my Grandmother.  Precious stuff!

Holly is still quite happy. :)

Justin Race

Justin won his first race last weekend.  The kid is doing quite well on the track.  These are the photos I took at his first race.  They are finally scrapped.

Tim and I took a day before the wedding to soak up some sun.  We had a great time.

Tim asked if we could go to Micheals so he could get some model kits of cars to make while we were there.  What do you think I said?

....YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had another wedding in the family this year. Travis and Laken tied the knot in Myrtle Beach. Very pretty .

Well it was another weekend of adventure.  On Saturday morning at 6:00 Tim and I took off for the Laytown Wagon Train.  This is where men meet with their mules, wagons and if they are lucky wives with food.  For 4 hours you ride through the back roads of the North Carolina Mountains.  The scenery was incredible. I thought I would share.

The Scenery

Justin has switched gears going from Go Kart racing to Late Model Dirt Track Racing.  These are photos of his first race. He loved it! I was the only one showing and concern, until I saw the photos of Tim.  The actual race was rained out, but he made it through practice and the qualification race.  He did well. The kid is a natural.

These were some of the many candid shots I took at Charli's Wedding Reception.  I was at a mule plow that morning and we were not back in time for the wedding.  I love the center picture on top the best.
