This was Lane's 8th birthday (4-24-09). We went to he and Kyler's Tball game, which they WON by a landslide!! Then went back to Whitnie and Donnie's for pizza, cake and ice cream. Allie also sang us one of her winning songs from her beauty paegants. It was a great day! Love you all.

GAME DAY!! let me tell you....we usually play cards where it is SISTERs VS. SISTERs.......so we play a few games and mark our winnings in a book...On this day.....me and my WONDERFUL, FANTASTICALLY AWESOME sister beat our mom and Aunt Agnes 12...yes TWELVE games in a row. We started playing at 1230 pm. Pop and Kenny came in for lunch..we were playing...they came home for work....we were playing....pop got ready for Wed night church and said, "Well, Carolyn, are you going with me?", to which she answered,"No, Jerry Don, I cannot leave this table until Agnes and I win!" He then says, "Well what am I gonna tell them at church?" Mom did not even make him dinner!!!! It was insane!!! He came home from church...we were playing. He went to bed...we were still playing. : ) Kenny brought us a FRUTISTA from Taco Bell for a snack.....we had cheeseburgers brought in for lunch....We had BANANA SPLITS for dinner.!!! The point being we never stopped to cook...we just played and played and played! We finally stopped playing at 1130 that night and only stopped then b/c Mom, Auntie and Reeney could no longer feel their legs and their backs were in agony. :) It was one for the record books, We played two other days but nothing compared to THAT day! I love you girls!! Thanks for the wonderful memories...and the 10# I gained while home! : ) xoxo
My sis' dog, Barney. He is a trip! Go get your water Barns....RUN RUN RUN!! HURRY! they are coming!!!! :)
