Just a Box of Cards!

Check out this post. What a great idea! The author who made the post wrote the cards to her husband, but you could do that for your mother, father, child, or grandchild. I may do some for Parker that I save and give to him to read when he is older. One a week may be ambitious, but I think I could handle one a month! With a few extras thrown in. She also created and cut her own cards, but I would have mine made at Wal-mart, Snapfish, or York-- someplace that would do all the work! Start writing today and save them until next Mother's Day or someone's birthday, I'm sure it would be a much appreciated gift.

Check out these graduation treats. I think this is a website worthy of our list. It is called Bakerella. Be sure to look at the other things on her site.

Strawberry Fields Forever!

When I returned from my walk this afternoon, my parents were at my house with these. Well, this is all that is left since I had a few! They know how much I love strawberries and they found these today fresh from the patch! There is nothing better than some of the first berries from the field! I cannot express with words their goodness!!! Both my parents and the berries!

Is it Friday Yet?

This week I have the dreaded breakfast duty. That means I am suppose to be in the cafeteria each morning about 7:20. It is my job to keep order and peace and things running smoothly, but I am outnumbered 200 to 1!

Here's the week so far:
Monday--throw up
Tuesday--bad words
Wednesday--turtles
Two more days to go!!!!

Misty is in the gym doing the same thing, but even more outnumbered. We've been too busy to talk but I know she began the week with a frog! See why we ask, Is it Friday yet?

The Elk...

So...for quite sometime now, I have been hearing talk of  "the elk."  It seems everyone has been seeing this creature various places all fairly close to my house.  I am not sure where it came from or why it is here.  I have not gotten to see it.  Dana saw a glimpse of it one time, however this morning...he got PICTURES!!!   He was sleeping this morning when a neighbor started banging on the door.   The man saw the elk coming up in front of our house and wanted Dana to get in on the sighting too.   He told Dana he was afraid no one would believe he really saw it.   My mom told me about this story before I got to talk to Dana.   I said, "I wish he had taken a picture...but he probably would never think of it.   Well...he came through for...I have taught him well!  He got great pictures of it!   He said our cattle ran after it all the way down the fence row.   Yes, it was on the other side, but they still tried their best!   I am so amazed to see these pictures...the boys were super excited about them too!  It really is a strange sight to see...in little ole' Byrdstown!

Tennessee Trivia

When It's Iris Time in Tennessee is one of our five official state songs. Do you know the other four? The iris, by the way is the state flower. Mine are in full bloom this week! Some of my neighbors have the darker purple ones that are also looking spectacular this week.
