Old Friends

So I am not an expert on Facebook yet (..and may never be..), but I did locate some old friends that I have thought about often in the past 30 years. It has been so much fun to catch up with them and learn about their families and lives. It seems like just yesterday we were living in Macclenny, where there were only 2 red lights and lots of dirt roads, 1 high school, 1 Church ward, and everyone knew everyone else. There is a current song on the Country music charts called "You're Gonna Miss This" ... and I do. Who knew all the turns each of our lives would take as we left that small town. I was blessed to live there and more importantly to meet the friends I did, and know even though we are located all across the country now, the friendship will always remain.

Sons



So they may not have been thrilled about attending church with me, or didn't care to spend the day or eat a meal together, they did smile for our annual "mother's day photo"---so I'm counting it as a blessed day.

A Day Off from Work


Don't get me wrong, I am thankful that Bill and I are employed during these economic hard times, BUT, it was so fun to take a day off last Friday!!!!! We spent the day at the Fort DeSoto Pier, fishing and sunning. It didn't even matter that we caught zero fish! We did get to see quite a few dolphin playing around the pier, and my tan is off to a good start for the summer.

Sonnys & Easter


I'm not sure which is better....celebrating Easter or eating lunch at Sonny's BBQ to celebrate!

Thanks, Jillian, for the tag!
1. Choose the 4th folder where you store your pictures on your computer.

2. Select the 4th picture in the folder.

3. Explain the picture.

4. Tag 4 people to do the same.

This is Jordan, Christmas 2006. Notice the short hair!!! We were living in Denver, and had a snow storm for Christmas, so he couldn't actually use the new skateboard as intended, but I think he did slide down some snow banks on it.

Since the only 3 friends I know that have blog sites have already done this...no one to tag for now.
