Henley May Hamilton was born. This is our first grand baby. It is so funny how fast that you can fall in love with a baby.
We have been waiting a long time to be called granny and papa.  I will post more picture soon.

Love, Laugh, Live

Proud Mom

There is nothing in this world that could ever compare to being a MOTHER. We are everything, we are doctors, lawyers, best friends and sometimes evilest person on the planet. Thats what makes a mother special.
Being a mother is the hardest job that I will ever have. But I would change a thing. I am the PROUDEST mom in the universe right now.
My son Wesley has a wonderful job. He works at Ford in Athens. Wesley has this natural talent that only can be born with. He can take a car apart and put it back together better than it was before. He is a great artist. Ever since weesley was a little boy I knew he would be taking thing apart and putting them back together again. I remember this one time Wesley was down in the basement and he had been there for a while so I went down to check on him. All I can say is I really loved that vaccum cleaner. He had taken it all apart. I asked  him what was he doing and he replied that he wanted to know how the wires worked. Hey I got a new vaccum cleaner. 
Wesley is 22 years old now and he is still taking things apart....
Now Ashley on the other hand she always got her finger stuck in something. One time she had stuck her finger in a hole on the back of our lawnmower and I thought that I was going to have to call 911. I used everything to try and pull it out. With a good tug it popped out. I don't know if this qualifies but now Ashley is 24 years old and is a chef. at Max Lagers in Atlanta. She has to put her finger in there and mix things up.. Ok it isn't close but I tried.
Either way I am so truely proud of my two children. They both have graduated from college and have great jobs.
Now I also have 5 step girls that I am also as proud of. Allison she is a teacher and also going to make me a grand mother..... October 16th.. Can't wait..
Beth, she graduated from Piedmont with a Mass Communications degree. Kayt is in college right at GA State, she is going to get her business degree. And last is Kathy, she is in the 11th grade and when she graduates she is going to college of her choice to be a Chemist. What she does with that we don't know yet..
So now see why I am such a PROUD mom.  Couldn't get any better, well unless one of these want to take care of me so that I can quit work to take care of my grandbaby..  :O) Just saying..

Granny

Granny...  Doesn't that sound great?  We just got the news that we were going to be grand parents, our daughter Allison is going to be a mother... October 9th. We are so excited.  David and I have been joking for awhile about wanting a grand baby and now we get to buy clothes, so many cute clothes.
Grand children are wonderful, they make the sweetest sounds and they smell so good. But the best thing about them is when they DON'T sounds good or smell good you can send them home....

LIVE LOVE LAUGH

Dog whisper

I know you probably know Caesar Millian on the show The Dog whisper. Well I really enjoy watching his show and how he can teach the dogs how to stop ripping things apart and creeping up behind you.
we have a daughter named Beth, I call her Bether Roo, I was wondering if I could use those same techniques on her. She is all the time breaking something or knocking things over and worst falling over things. I am going to start snapping my finger at her and making that sound that he does to see if it works.
My husband and I are calling ourselves the Beth Whisper!
Every time I see her getting close to the flower that she knocked over 3 times in one night I am going to snap my finger at her. By the way, did I mention that she is 24 years old? Yeap.
Clumsy as the day as she was born. But we still love her yes we do.. :O)
I will let you know if it works..

LIVE    LOVE    LAUGH, every day..

Lock Down

1-23-12
Well today was a crazy day. A convict from the Madison Co. jail broke loose today and was hidding some where around the school so they put us in total lock down. It was a little spooky, but I knew we were in good hands.
Only problem was I was locked in my classroom with 10 EBD students....  Shall I say anything else.

Confused

1/15/12
I am a little confused maybe you can help me..  My wonderful husband bought me a Alienware computer for Christmas 2 years ago. It was beautiful all big and red. Well until it started having problems so eventually we had it replaced. We had a warranty on it.
Well they replaced it with a upgrade. I was very excited until I opened the box.  It had a huge green sticker on it that said refurbished.  "REFURBISHED" Now I might but little slow some days but replaced doesn't mean refurbished right.  That says to me that this computer at one time was broken and they fixed it and replace ours with it.
That is like going to the car dealership and buying a brand new car and having problems with i, then taking it back and trading for a old car at the same price.  That doesn't add up to me. What about you, what do you think. Let me.  I might be wrong..

Mini Vacation

1/14/12
Living in Georgia is great.  One day we can be wearing shorts in January the next wearing thermal under ware.  The older I get the harder it is on me when it is really cold.  I have became a walking barometer, I can tell you when it is going to rain and tell you when it is turning cold.
I should be making money on my predictions if I wasn't laying in the floor when my leg up in the air and wrapped in ice..

Wishing for Snow

My youngest daughter Kathy is 17 and bless her poor heart, she is so smart but sometimes the things that comes out of her mouth is so funny.

David popped us some popcorn today and we are just sitting watching TV and Kathy asked her dad to get her the red glass off of the coffee table.  What is funny about this there was 2 red glasses on the table.

A couple of years ago she asked her dad what color was that red sweater.  See what I mean.

Bless her heart..

Dean Morris

Today is a very sad day.  Ms. Dean my sister's mother in-law passed away a couple of hours ago.  She has been going down hill ever since her husband died. Ms. Dean was a very sweet lady with the patience of God. 
Today heaven gave a new set of wings to an angel.

This is Mr. Clyde Morris, Dean's husband. He passed away 4 weeks ago.
We are going to miss them both very much. 

New Years in Virginia

This is a picture of my husband and myself in Virginia. We took the family to my sisters to spend the New Years with.  We were hoping for snow like last year, but it didn't happen.  It was very warm and beautiful.
We took the kids on a hay ride down to the river. It is a very beautiful place. A place where you can just sit all day and think. I love living here in Georgia but Virginia is a amazing state.

My sister and her husband, Danny lives on their family farm. Dean and Clyde is Danny's parents. Together they have around 200 acres of the most beautiful land.  Here is a picture of the first family house that was built in the late 1800's restored of course but not many changes to it.  They still cook on a wood stove.  They still have a potatoe barn. Also this is the only way in and out to their house on this swinging bridge.  I couldn't imagine having to walk across a OLD bridge every day.  This is just a few of the things that makes this farm a unique place. I will later add more photos of our trip. 



 Untill tomorrow.
