Hello friends, Although this past week hasn't been one of my best, It has still been filled with blessings from the Lord as well as wonderful time with my family. As some of you know, my grandmother went to be with the Lord last Sunday. It was a lot tougher than I thought letting her go. Shamefully I hadn't been going to visit her as often as I used to and now I'm feeling some guilt. I keep thinking of old memories like when I would ride my bike down to her house and spend hours with her during the …

What a day! Cooper had a doctor’s appointment. When we were in Three Way, we had a blowout. Thankfully, we were able to pull off on a side road. Well I got the spare out and all was good.
