More playing in the creek--which he loved.









It was probably the nicest Memorial Weekends we've had around here in a looonnggg time! NO RAIN! It was great. Our household has survived another school year and all the end of the year activities...my boys are growing up way too fast for me...next year, 4th and 7th grades...whew! Had a wonderful time on the bike trip with CB....and a great time with ZB in OKC. Z's trip was actually a lot more fun than I even expected! I was really proud of the kids...they behaved well and represented our town well. It was literally a whirlwind trip...and I think I'm still whooped from all of it, but it was good. By Thursday....JB picked up the boys from their last day of school, came home for the boat and headed to the lake...the dog and I joined them for supper after I made a much needed trip the store...we were seriously lacking in the grocery area in our household....been to busy to get to the store! Went out and ate a wonderful supper that my f-i-l fixed...bbq chicken legs, fried potatoes, corn on the cob. Played some ladder golf, and when I left around 845, they were firing up a mean game of pitch! I think they said they played cards till midnight! I had to work on Friday till 1 pm...ended up leaving at noon...my mom came by...with a special friend...Trine made it from DENMARK! She looks so wonderful and it was sooooo good to see her! Even though time was very short...we made the most of it and had a blast! Gosh, there is so much to talk about...but I took lots of pics to share too! Lovin the new camera...working well for me, Thanks Ranchgirl for the info!!! Thanks to all who shared their opinions! This one is working for my lifestyle...as you'll see in some of the pics...I haven't got it all figured out! ha ha Have a Blessed Monday...I'm so thankful for my great weekend...and so thankful for the ones who give their lives to protect my freedoms. GOD BLESS THE USA!


p.s. I think I have a major problem....I can't find most of the pics I took this weekend...did I delete them on the computer? AAAAHHHHHHHH?

What a busy, great, exciting time you've been having! The boys are growing and changing!

On your pictures: Do you have Picasa 3? If not you can download it free from Google, and it will get all the pictures you have on your computer. Maybe it will find them. Ha!

Great pictures of your boys!

Aww, I'm sorry I recommended a camera that didn't work out for you! It took me a little while to figure out how to use the settings too, but I love it now! Hopefully your Nikon will be a better fit!

Hope your summer is off to a great start!

Sounds like a marvelous weekend! Love all those fun photos - glad to see you're enjoying that new camera! The pics in the creek made me homesick for Texas - our kids grew up in a creek - miss it a lot!
