Here is what's happening with us!

I went on a road trip with my best friend, her husband and their 4 year old son to Georgia this past weekend. Lets just say we had a good quick trip...or as good as can be with a 4 year old stuck in the Atlanta traffic for almost 2 and a half hours. Oh yea, and one daddy sitting in the back that was getting car sick. MEN!! But we made it there and back all in less than 72 hours. It was nice to see Franklin County. Even nicer to see the Homochitto. As soon as we got in and unloaded the Durango it was off to the river. Our "usual" weekend spot!

Cheyenne & Cole have gone with their daddy to Gulf Shores for a few days. This is their first trip with him since he left, so we are praying everything goes ok. Cheyenne has been pretty good about calling her mamo every moring to let her know she and Cole are ok...Which does make us feel better. While they are in AL, Brandy has been in Terry & Byram area looking for an apartment or a house for them. She's ready to move where there are more job opportunities for her. And she'll be closer to her friends. Mom & Cheyenne aren't happy but they will both live.

Chris will load up Sunday and head for San Antonio, TX for about 6 to 8 weeks. He said with 2 truck notes, the money was too good to pass up. Can't say that I blame him!

Mom's birthday was yesterday. We are going Sunday to celebrate her birthday and a friend of ours together.

Daddy of course is getting ready to go fishing on Friday.

He and the Brother Hood Fellowship men are still working on Mr. Cliff Berryhill's house. As many of you know Mr. Cliff was diagnoised with cancer about a year ago and pased away about a month ago. Over years the house that held this LARGE family was beginning to show signs of age and in need of many repairs so the Brother Hood with many generous donations took it upon theirselves to see that Mrs. Sandra & the kids would have a nice worry free place to stay. It is amazing the work these guys can do considering very few of them have been "real carpenters" I walked into the house the other day and was amazed at their handy work and creativeness. If any of you know Mrs. Sandra and knew Mr. Cliff they were very down to earth ordinary people. Nothing fancy (but I guess with 8 kids, fancy went out the door a long time ago!), nothing extravagant, just good Christian people, basic everyday folks, so Cliff & Sandra said nothing fancy, just basic...but this basic is BEAUTIFUL! I told Daddy to remember this for my house that I plan to build one day!!I won't say what kind of look he gave me! If any of you get a chance, especially on a Saturday(if there is a whole bunch of trucks there), ride by and visit with these guys, I'm sure they could use an extra hand. Please continue to pray for this family. While this remodeling phase is going on they are all living at a son's house right up the road. They will still have many difficult days ahead adjusting to life here on earth without a husband, father, friend, hero and I'm sure many many other things to them that Mr. Cliff was.

Oh yea & say a prayer for Jennifer, Shelly and the boys. Shelly broke his ankle I think last Friday. A horse stumbled and flipped over on him. When the horse got up, Shelly's foot was still in the stir-up and he was on the ground. He seems to be behaving himself so I hear, but I'm sure he's in pain and knowing Shelly like I do, staying in the house is not the easiest thing to do.

I hope everyone has a happy and safe Memorial weekend!!
