in the news

The girls were featured in a local paper called WNC Parent magazine. In the February issue the girls talk about what they have done in the fair, what they like about the fair, and what they want to do this year. The newspaper said they will be back in a few months to do an update on the fair prep for this coming fair. If you get the chance you need to check it out. I think my Mama Bear has a few copies.

News of Debbie and Tim and Robyn 1-14-2011

Talked to Debbie last night...she called to say that she was out of the hospital. She sounded
wonderful...that sweet voice was a blessing to hear. We all continue to pray that she gets better real soon and is back to her good health quickly. Please keep her and Rob and girls in your prayers.

Have talked to Tim several times today..so what I am the Momma;;;lolol... he reports that Robyn has been resting..and she needs to. He says that he is so sore but Robyn is his main concern. She called and left me a message..I was so anxious to hear her voice for myself.
Please keep them in your prayers also.

Another note....PLEASE RESPECT THE SNOW AND ESPECIALLY THE ICE. Most of you that would be reading this...BTW..does anyone?.. have been affected by this recent southern cold snap...stay safe everyone...

Want some pleasant thoughts??? Everytime I think about July 4 get together...I smile...More on that later from Kitten and Mick...maybe all this snow will be melted by then. Another way to smile? Read Joni's blog...she is such a talented writer...it makes my day so many times...
Take care...

Tell That Someone That You Love

I am writing this to say to you all...You have read or heard by now about Tim and Robyn's car accident. I would like to say to you also ...please listen to the words of the song: If Tomorrow Never Comes...powerful words!

Tim and Robyn had the Lord riding or as some might even say "had the wheel"...those are not simple mindless words as I know without a shadow of a doubt that the Lord is ALWAYS directing their paths..and they live it also. We sometimes need to be reminded that as Tim wrote.."the material possessions of our lives are just that...and the only true real things are the ones we love". I can only imagine..knowing how his sister, nieces and father and I were feeling as we awaited news..how those two lovely girls of his were feeling as they waited at home...they were immediately surround by words written to them by friends and family...we were called by family as they read also...words of comfort...thanks!
Lets keep them in our thoughts and prayers..along with the other couple in the other car.
PRAISE THE LORD!

Lets Keep Debbie in our prayers

Received an e-mail this morning from Debbie. She has been sick all thru the Christmas holidays...am so sorry to hear this...she will have gallbladder surgery this thursday 1-13..
Lets all keep her in our thoughts and prayers...and Rob and her girls also. May the surgeon's hands be guided by the Master.
Get well soon Deb.

happy new years

we hope everyone brought the new years in the way you wanted to...we sure did
Nothing like celebrate a birthday, playing board games, & enjoy some down time. Hope this new year brings everything you wish for and you enjoyed your peas (peace), rice (riches), collards (green money)& pork (more peace..we need lots of that). One question, always growing up we ate a slice of onion with all of this...why?
Have a great 2011!
