had some "couch time" with my boy. it was a great mother's day.--holly
we celebrated grey's #2 at his house saturday. cake, ice cream, balloons, presents and bubble mowers...pictures say it all.
uncle t. building the "city"...jax helped.
It's been raining FOREVER and the creek is over the bank.
If you look closely you'll see lots of long brown shadows...mostly catfish we think...
Come, catch, clean & cook...i'm sure Dad will let ya use the grill and we'll make some coleslaw & hushpuppies!
Good Friday at Great & Uncle T's with Grandma, GiGi and GiDa baking cookies and dyeing eggs. 
We had a tornado warning, so Great put us all in a safe place...Grandma, Ashlyn & Noah in the safe closet and GiGi, GiDa and Maggie (the cat) under the stairs. Uncle T kept watch and eventually gave us the all clear. THEN...Noah played on all the pillows and Ashlyn laughed and laughed at her silly cousin.
EASTER...sunrise service, breakfast at church, cantata and Easter dinner at Aunt Nellies and the usual for the boys..
We showed up at Mom & Dad's to celebrate their anniversary and gifted them with yardwork and provided a bouquet of Dad's favorite flowers for church on Sunday. Gail had the cleanest job! Mom & Dad rewarded our labor with the first firing of the grill and some delicious burgers and fixins. It was a great weekend. -Holly

April 3, 2009....super special day at Tippsville....59th Wedding Anniversary....very special occasion with warm, precious memories....the "I do's" took place in Cowan...with Ky Curry doing the honors...along with Jo Curry as a witness along with Winfield and Wanda Bennett standing up with Edna & myself....always remember & cherish the admonition from brother Curry...who stated..."I don't know you Roy but I have known Edna all of her life...and you are not worthy"....boy what a challenge....I was able to pick up a special gift for my bride but will never be able to express my deep sense of gratitude for my soul mate...in every aspect of life...with a home and affection that has nurtured our ever growing family within the whole of life...in every way....and yes....every Day 24/7 for 59 super years and still going strong....She is truly the one and only love of my life...and forever! For a perfect description take a look at Proverbs 31! Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her! Thank you God...for this special day...and blessing me with my soul mate...and still going strong! Hallelujah!
