Don't be jealous, we can't ALL be in Harrisburg, PA

at 06/09/08 4:43PM

Sitting in the airport, delayed, waiting for my flight to Chicago. Hmmm..will I make my flight back to Dallas??

Hey - after this year, I am taking a big, fat, FREE trip to Europe using all my miles and points. I will ponder this as I am sitting here.

Good news: after our meeting dismissed early today, we took a quick trip to Hershey's Chocolate World. As someone said, 'You've found heaven'. We had a quick tour, small bite of chocolate, and bought some treats for our co-workers. I guess not a bad way to start your week!

Everyone have a good one!

Ahhh...Mother's Day

at 05/18/08 9:54PM

Why wouldn't it be a great holiday? I have no children, but I have a mother, and I know a lot of great ones as well! We are especially blessed to have many wonderful mothers in our family. Remind me one day to tell you all about Granny, my Dad's mom. She's a particular favorite of mine!

Last Sunday along with my immediate family (Mom & Dad, Brandye & Tracy, Brad & Brandi and 4 kids), we were joined by Uncle Randy and Aunt Debbie and THEIR 4 kids (Crystal & Nathan, Calvin & Amanda, Cody & Casey.) We had a wonderful, although short, visit and got to spend some time with Baby Silas - whose parents have him living all the way in St. Louis! (bad parents!) No, they're fabulous parents, and Crystal is one of the many mothers we are blessed to have! I love them so much!

So, I know it's a week past Mother's Day, but call her anyway and surprise your Mom with a 'Happy Mother's Day! a whole 51 weeks early!

Here are some pictures of our great day!

Fortunately for me, Jenna's snacks don't happen much in the middle of the night anymore. She mostly goes 12 hours now. I'm lucky! You have a great week too!

by missysnapp at 05/18/08 10:39PM
Those are great pictures! Thanks for sharing! :)

by txwhittlec at 05/18/08 11:08PM
It was a lot of fun! I'm so glad we were able to hang out with you guys.

by callmehands at 05/19/08 9:01AM
You are so nice! You got much better pictures than we did! Hope to see you again soon! :)

Great photos! It's great to see everyone :)

by laughing_eyes at 05/19/08 6:58PM
Love the pictures, wish I could do a fantabulous slide show like that. Course the people in the pictures add an extra special touch :)

by nonniiam at 05/19/08 8:20PM
If I had known who all was out there, I would have crashed the party!! Speaking of party....check your email later!

by anutty at 05/20/08 7:16AM

by campmagicman at 05/24/08 9:32AM
great pics, btw

by campmagicman at 05/24/08 9:33AM
probably just to prove he could do groundhogs via CGI with one hand tied behind his back. :/

Will you get to come to the Concert next weekend?

by swood at 05/25/08 4:32PM
and what a response!

by campmagicman at 05/25/08 4:46PM
Most likely, yes. I was hoping we'd be a sellout. At this point I'm not sure. I'll let you know if ticket sales really pick up this week.

by swood at 05/25/08 11:25PM
ummm...I am ready for another girls day out!

by jamiemmoon at 05/30/08 2:01PM
Hi Brooke! Tamara here. Hope you are having a great weekend!

by babygirl at 05/31/08 11:51PM
Thanks for the invite last night! I had a GREAT time! We need to get together more often!!!

by crumpledart at 06/01/08 9:24PM
Thanks for coming Saturday! It was good seeing you. Hope you enjoyed the show.

by swood at 06/02/08 12:29PM
I Think You Should.

by freckleface96 at 06/05/08 9:45PM
Great song, isn't it? I think the first time I heard it was on an episode of Taxi. A guy played it on guitar and sang on Elaine's plane to Austria. That was before my Billy Joel obsession (circa 1980).

New Preacher and a Potluck...

at 05/05/08 9:24PM

What more could you ask?

Josh Kirby started this week working along with David Holder. We're blessed to have two wonderful men who work with our congregation!

yes, indeed. I feel so blessed to have you too.

by jamiemmoon at 05/06/08 7:23AM
Happy for you:) Enjoy it all!:)

by neentothebean at 05/06/08 7:41AM
that is so great!

by neenout at 05/06/08 8:18AM
I'm with Jamie.

by kirbyj2 at 05/06/08 10:24AM
how exciting!

by laughing_eyes at 05/06/08 7:55PM
Better than having them 'work against our congregation'. Sorry. That just hit me when I read it. After Sunday, you would expect that. :)

by oldrupert at 05/06/08 8:00PM
that d'wain is so deep, don't ya think?

by jamiemmoon at 05/06/08 9:06PM
Not denial...... Wise.....

by herbberkley at 05/06/08 9:20PM
I'm just happy to have all of you in our lives! Please make sure the new preachers tie is straight! Ha!

by campmagicman at 05/06/08 9:21PM
By the way, this is Anita-yes, I'll get an account soon.

by campmagicman at 05/06/08 9:22PM
Amen Sista!

Hello!!!! You must be a surfin'

I think I'm still full from the potluck :) and the sermons :)

by nonniiam at 05/06/08 10:34PM
I GOT MY ACCOUNT-YEAH TO MY SWEET DAUGHTER!

by anutty at 05/11/08 10:30PM
I am a fudruckers' girl but I am thinking we DO need to run out to Grapevine one evening and check out this RR report.

by jamiemmoon at 05/14/08 9:54AM
i wanna go to red robin wait for me

by jolynn at 05/15/08 6:33PM
you mean the dead lady and todd's major surgery? yeah, overwrote it for me also. i sure was glad you were there that day. lots of people were there that i've lost touch with completely. i hate that...

by missysnapp at 05/15/08 10:59PM
Me too! My pictures came out pretty terrible, all except the family group ones. If you have better ones then I would love to see those.

by neenout at 05/16/08 7:11AM

Trees, trees, everywhere

at 04/11/08 11:36PM

Okay, check out my fellow River Oakians (Oakians? Oaksters? Oakites?) Marilyn and Dwain's posts in regards to the recent storm activity here in North Texas.

I wasn't here - I was in California (and yes, made it home in SPITE of American Airlines). But while I was out I did hear home updates and someone even said 'yes, you should be worried about your yard/house'- yikes! So, when I finally arrived home Friday morning at 2:00 a.m. it was with a little anxiety. BUT, after a quick check, all was well. Whew!

HOWEVER, on my way to work this morning, I saw a sight that actually caused me to turn my car around and take a picture with my phone. HOW CRAZY IS THIS??? This house is barely a block away from my own home, so I am very thankful!
(another crazy note, I think if you go back further through my blogs, you will see a posting about another fallen tree - the one that fell on my house. What's up with me and trees?)

wow! there were some strong winds that night. very scary!

by txwhittlec at 04/12/08 12:03AM
that's a lot of crazy. they had similar tree damage. Glad you made it home!

by callmehands at 04/12/08 7:40AM
Some portion of the tree, not the trunk, is ON the house. Left is West, right is East. You cannot tell from the street if it damaged the house.

by oldrupert at 04/12/08 8:27AM
Probably best you were not at home.

by oldrupert at 04/12/08 8:42AM
I remember something about that tree on your house, and the fact you were on the roof with a chainsaw, wasn't it???? ak

by campmagicman at 04/12/08 10:45AM
Wow

by kirbyj2 at 04/12/08 11:50AM
katie told me it was huge and uprooted...I guess I had to see it to believe it. Whoa!

by bringingadessert at 04/12/08 6:44PM
oh wow! Glad your house is okay. Glad you found me on here! Maybe we can actually keep up better now! haha!

by crumpledart at 04/12/08 7:03PM
Oh WOW!!

by raifhaus at 04/13/08 2:00PM
That was just the HUGEST :) tree!!!!!!!!!!!!!I do think it was sitting on the corner of their house.

by nonniiam at 04/13/08 11:35PM
thanks...I loved it too. I am so glad you moved into the bubble.

by jamiemmoon at 04/14/08 9:43AM
Drove by the tree this morning, 4/14. The sidewalk goes to the porch. The overhang on the porch is damaged, but I cannot see any visible holes in the roof, although I know there were two good sized limbs sitting on the roof.

by oldrupert at 04/14/08 2:32PM
And 1 or 2 kids sitting on the limbs :)

by nonniiam at 04/15/08 10:49PM
On Thursday night, when we had more severe weather, I went outside to look around when the tornado sirens went off and all my neighbors were standing in the middle of the street looking around too! When they tell us to take cover, we go right outside! Sounds like a Texan or an aggie, doesn't it?

by kyakergirl at 04/19/08 2:07AM
THOSE CRAZY TREES!!!!! How can we handle them these days!!!! You dont see any of us goin' around fallin' on houses do ya'? I DIDNT THINK SO!!!!!!

by freckleface96 at 04/25/08 12:04PM
I need your recipe for these brownies I keep hearing about.

by jamiemmoon at 04/26/08 9:54PM
Have you noticed that they still haven't gotten that tree completly cut up (down)???

by nonniiam at 04/27/08 10:04PM
I am really happy for J. He has been looking for the right opportunity to make a good move. And he did. Have a good and safe trip home.

by jamiemmoon at 04/30/08 7:14PM
Have fun! We have to get together when you get back in town. It seems that it might be time for a road trip somewhere!!! :)
