Handsome Boys


Brandon up bright and early (for a change) dressed and ready to go to the FBLA Conference in Shreveport! He cleans up good don't he!!!


Another of my handsome boy! Looks like a businessman....he did go to conference in Business Law. Maybe we will have a lawyer in the family!

Ethan Anderson and Zach showed up to get Brandon...so they had to do some posing...I can't get those guys to be serious for nothing!!!

Lawyers or gangsters...I can't figure out which one they will be....lets hope for lawyers!!!!





Jake wasn't too happy about having to get up so early....I think a family of rats slept in his hair!!!

Totally Manon






Ok, these are still of the Valentine's Dance, but see....there was a friend of mine there and she was out on that floor dancing her bootie off with all the kids and I took pictures of her and I told her that she was gonna make it on my BLOG....she laughed...Guess now, she will know I was SERIOUS!!! (warned u Manon! luv ya ;-))



This is Brandon and Jake...with Manon in the second row...not sure what this dance was called, but I don't think they were in sync!




Sorry I know you asked that I not put the back shot in, but I had to...I just had to!





Manon doin some line dances!




......and again!!!

Brandon doin what he does best....texting...and Jake wondering why he isn't dancing while Manon boogies on!!!

Don't worry girl, you had a great time and I had a great time watching you guys and taking all these pictures!!!

Nothing wrong at all with having fun with your kids!

Mine tell me that I embarrass them by dancing so I will stick to taking pictures and you can do the dancing!!

Hope we are still friends after this! Luv ya girl!!!!

**~~Rules from God for 2009~~**

Rules from God for 2009

1. Wake Up !! Decide to have a good day. "Today is the day the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be glad in it" Psalms 118:24

2. Dress Up !! The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks. "The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at outward appearance; but the Lord looks at the heart." I Samuel 16:7

3. Shut Up!! Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking. "He who guards his lips guards his soul." Proverbs 13:3

4. Stand Up!!... For what you believe in. Stand for something or you will fall for anything.. "Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good..." Galatians 6:9-10

5. Look Up !!... To the Lord. "I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13

6. Reach Up !!... For something higher. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, And He will direct your path." Proverbs 3:5-6

7. Lift Up !!... Your Prayers. "Do not worry about anything; Instead PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING." Philippians 4:6

Jake's First Deer...December 9, 2006

Jake killed his first deer in December of 2006 and these are the pictures. He was hunting with his Daddy and they were about to get out of the stand and this 5 point walked out! He was so excited!!!


Not sure who was more proud here....I mean before we could even get the deer out of the woods, we had to take a picture...wipe blood ...the whole nine yards!!





Here is one of Jake showing off his gun and his blood and his deer! WAY TO GO JAKER!




and ....FINALLY getting ready to clean the deer....Jake had this habit of not opening his eyes when pictures were being made....think he opened them this time! I decided to go ahead and post these pictures because Jake has joined the 4-H shooting sports team. We got a new gun and will be going to competitions and such....just thought I would share why he wanted to do this in the first place. We are all deer hunters at my house!!! Keith created monsters where that was concerned by taking each of us hunting with him. Now he sits at home most mornings and lets us all get out in the cold...bring the meat home to him...lol, maybe he was smarter than I thought!!!! Love you Honey and thanks for taking us cause it sure is fun!!!!
