Bowling with the Girls

While we were home, we took the girls bowling! It was a first and they liked it! I LOVE to bowl!!!!! I bowled a 99 and I was real proud of that....until I realized the bumper guards were up.

We tried to do a family picture, but SK acted SOOOOO Silly!

I know Kelly and her family really appreciate all the prayer and support! THANK YOU! She is in a bad way, so continue to lift her up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Emily's little t-shirt in the last picture is PRECIOUS! Does she like pugs? My niece is a pug lover as am I (and owner!) Where did you find that? Must have for my little niece. Praying for the Stamps too. What a terrible thing for Kelly to go through. She is so strong and positive, I know she will be fine.

I haven't bowled in a long time! My sister-in-law used to own a pug before she had to put him to sleep. He was even part of her 2nd wedding with a bouteneir.

Many prayers for Kelly & her fam.

Bowling is super fun, makes me want to go.
Oh and poor Kelly, Veronica had MRSA really bad when she was 7 months old and had 43 spots all over her body. I will definitely pray for Kelly and her family.

I used to take the kids to the alley on base because it was so cheap and empty in the mornings...miss that! And I don't know that I could bowl a 99 with the bumpers!!

I love to bowl but I'm terrible at it! It's still fun regardless. I bet the girls had a blast :)

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now. Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago. We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun! No stress at all, as far as I can remember! I just played. I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year! Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons." WHAT? I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go? I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST. I guess that's a go

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band. I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school. She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
