Lazy Day !

With two days of rain moving in, Emma and I spent the day together just being lazy. Another great football weekend is coming up. Hopefully with no big surprioses!!! Everybody is gone to a pep rally at the school and I'm watching Sprint Cup quallifying for Sunday's race. Hopefully the weather will be good for the ALS walk tomorrow morning. This event has been a key funding contributor for local services provided by the association in the Atlanta area. Will be praying for a great outcome.Thanks to some of you old friends for reaching out and catching up with me. Love You All!

Walk To Defeat ALS - Saturday


This Saturday the Walk To Defeat ALS takes place in Atlanta. The Georgia ALS Association has been of great assistance to Debbie and I, starting the day I received my diagnoses. Here is a link to our family ALS team site: Click Here If you care to sponsor a walker or just make a general donation, any amount is fine. I struggled with putting this on my blog, but a number of friends and family have asked how to help fund research and other ALS resources. Love You All.

A Great Guy!!


I had the privilege to have Mark Davis and his son Nate over on Saturday to watch the Fla Ga game. Mark has been our Sunday school teacher since we returned to Atlanta five years ago. Mark is a Godly man that has a huge heart. We have always had this Gator Dog thing going on, and have had some fun with it over the years. This is the first time we have watched the game together. It was a great game!! Mark was very gracious!! I still have hope that I can convert Nate to being a Gator. Mark I appreciate you, and love you brother!! We need to do it again.

Bear Cat !



For the past few days the dog and cat have been in a heightened state of alert. Yesterday afternoon I found out the reason why. I was catching up on some email and just happened to glance at the front door. What did I see? I would call it a Bear Cat! I called Emma and Mi, and soon the drama began. Don't know that I've seen one of these before!

A Great Surprise !


What a great weekend! My birthday was Saturday, and on Friday night folks started showing up. By the time I got a cake, Leia & John, Casey and Wendy, and Mom and Dad were all here. It was a special time for me. We all had a great time together and it was one of those rare times when we were all together. Leia and John drove all the way from Oklahoma to be here. What a haul! They left this morning around 6am to head home. They both have work and school tomorrow. Casey and Wendy went on to Hilton Head to celebrate an anniversary. Cool on that beach today! Mom and Dad are working the way back to Gatlinburg. Great memories...Love You All

Choices


Shelby is on the road this weekend at Liberty University. This is the time that she is narrowing her college choices. She and her girlfriends have a full weekend planed, including ballgames and other activities. Several girls from our church, and her class, apparently are planning to attend Liberty. Pastor Johnny is on the Liberty board and spoke in Monday's convocation. Great school...Can't wait for her feedback...Have fun Shelby!
