And the rockets red glare.....?

Our family started the 4th of July weekend off with a birthday party for my grandmother. We met at her house on Friday night for a birthday party. Tillie Ann had so much fun spending time with the family members, especially her favorite cousin Jackson. He shared his 4-wheeler with her and they had a ball. BB (my mom) pushed and pushed them until she could not push anymore. We had a scrumptious meal and wonderful desserts. Pop "I" and Clint cooked up really good hush puppies and fish. Jackson was chasing a bird and was about to go into the corn when Uncle Buddy saved him. Smiling for the camera. Waiting...... BB says "NO MORE" Our chefs. The next celebration was back at the camp ground with Papaw and Nanny. We had the traditional meal of boiled shrimp, potatoes, and corn. This year a new item was added: crawfish. Everyone seemed to like the new item. We played at the camp ground until Tillie Ann could play no more. So this year we did not see any rockets of red glare, but watch out next year because we will be there. Playing hard. Look at those little red cheeks.

Camping 2009

This year instead of going to the beach, we thought it would be fun to take the camper to the state park and camp for a couple of nights. This was so much fun. Tillie Ann played in the dirt and rocks, swam in her pool, and took on stroll in the lake. We really had tons of fun.

Just Go Around.. Or Under

Tillie Ann has a new trick. When we don't want her to get to something, we block her way. Or so we think we do. One day her daddy was in her room and she wanted to play with her humidifier. Well thinking that it was not safe for her to do her daddy "blocked" her way to the said object. Well, being the smart child she is, she decides to find a new way; under the chair. She never made it because we were laughing so hard at her she stopped. Man, what are we in store for later on???? :(

After being caught!!

Give Away

Go here for a really cute giveaway. These tiles are so cute and they each have a verse on them somewhere. I love the family one. Too cute. Hope I win! :)

Sale it all

My hubby and I are participating in Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. One of the ideas he gives you is if you don't use it sale it for the extra money. So Buddy took it to heart and in one day we got things ready for a yard sale. I thought it was going to be the biggest flop ever, but to my surprise we did very well! Here was our first shopper:

Yard selling is hard work.

Shu Fly Don't Bother Me!
