1st last day of Elem. School

Well today I am sad because my baby started he last year in elementary school. Next year she will be in JR High and I am soo not ready for that. I tried on her clothes last night, I don't buy "school clothes" , that I had just bought a couple months ago not summer clothes but capris and such well they are going in the Good will bag today. She has grown so much this summer and since she got in the habit of wearing only pjs all day long I just did not realize that she is growing so fast. So this weekend we will hit the mall to get my baby girl all new clothes. I was sick cause she had tons of clothes that had the tags on it. So I hope all you have a wonderful weekend.

Waves N Wheels Poker Run

This was the 1st annual Waves N Wheels Poker Run benefitting the JakeOwenRaborn Foudation

I was incharge of Check Point #4 at Farmerville Motors. We had I think around 159 hands. I do think for the 1st run for the Foundation it was a great success. I don't have any pictures of the Boat Run but maybe Melanie can get her hands on some to post on her blog. We really had a great time even though it was HOT. Anything for Angel Jake. He truly touched my life and many others.

The riders heading to stop #5Just a few in line to get their next draw
More coming
just getting plan ready for the rest of the ride
My crew I got to help me at check point #4

My big boy

just going back a few years. I had this picture made on canvas last year when BJ turned 16 and now he is almost 17 boy does time fly. I love my lil man so much

This was BJ last year with the big 13point he got. I am soo proud to be his mom. Today we got the news that he officially became one of the Sports Medicine Trainers for West Monroe. He took sports medicine last year and decided that he was very interested in becoming a sports medicine orthopedic specialist. Now he is really thinking with the experience he is getting that he is more interested in the career. When he was just a lil boy he always said he was going to be a Dr and now he says a Sports Medicine Dr since his mom is a big ole baby when it comes to him actually playing. I am so dang happy for him. We always live by Gods will. I will continue to pray to my God that he keeps his hand on him to make the right decisions as he gets into what life has in store for him. Keep up the wonderful work Man. I love this kid so Much. Mom

Summer Time Fun

Jonathan and Sabre having a great time tubing.

They thought we were not going fast enough
Oh yeah now we are rocking on the waves. Check out Sabre's face. She made all kinds of looks
but she really liked tubing,it has been a long time since we have done that but when she was only 1year old I have pictures of her in the tube waving
about to stop for a break.
My kids had so much fun today tubing on the lake. They absolutely love being on the water

My Angels

This is BJ with another Big Bass he loves catching those at Papaw Benny's pond

My lil Sabre' styling her hair
I just love her pigtails but she informed me that was the last time she was doing them she was getting way too big for her hair to be like a toddler.lol Her smile just melts my heart

Shake for Jake

I am soo excited. I ask my aunt to make some afagans that are purple/yellow for the shake for Jake this year and when I got there to look at one she has already made in one nite it was absolutely beautiful. Plus she had a few that she had stashed away from making this past winter and donated them too. I sure hope They can find a way to sell them for Jake's legend. I don't think I have ever felt the way I do about his story. It has touched me in ways behond imagination. I did not know that child but I felt so close to him through caringbridge. Since then I have met his Mom and his Mo and I can't get enough of their blogs. I am soo addicted to them. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend.
