Memorial Day Weekend

What a weekend this has been!!
Friday Morning, I took off from work to see Bailey's awards day at Euharlee Middle!! She received an award for all A's honor roll ALL year!! Not many people on that list!! Then she received the citizenship award for her group of 120 or so students!! I'm not trying to say I was proud, but...
Then Mimi took the children to Alabama. I helped Donna move her classroom (she is getting a new one for next year!!) Then we went to the Rome Braves game Friday night!! Front row right at the visitors on deck circle. We got a foul ball and a GAME USED cracked bat!! WooHoo!!
Saturday we slept in like we used to early in our marriage when we were playing darts and singing karioke every weekend!! Did some things around town, visited my grandparents and my parents..... Watched Lonesome Dove (thanks Shep) and then watched Taken!!
Sunday we were at church, where we started the Ten Commandments in Sunday School. Honored our Military in church and the Pastor did more of the series understanding relationships. It was a phenomenal day. We went home and watched a couple more movies and just chilled out!
Monday we did NOTHING most of the day until we grilled out with some friends in the neighborhood. We cooked out, played wiffle ball like when we were kids, and just had a blast!! Then Donna watched one of those reality dance shows or something until 9 and then decided she wanted an ice cream, so at 9:30 PM we were at Bruster's getting an ice cream. MMMMMM., But I paid for it this morning. Tuesday morning work out HURT!! But I did it. Treadmill can't laugh at me!! LOL
I hope everyone had as great of a weekend as we did!!

Only when I support it....?

President Obama on the 36th anniversery of Roe v Wade says "this decision stands for a broader principle: that government should not intrude on our most private family matters."

But this week a Brown County judge ordersDaniel Hauser to recieve chemo treatments for his cancer against his and his mother's wishes, but I havn't heard My President say that the judge should stay out of that most private family matter?

In March a judge ordered that 3 homeschooled kids had to go to public school because their mother's lessons had religious teachings, but My President didn't tell that judge to stay out of that most private family matter?

I am under the current belief that things are private family matters for liberal, such as my President, ONLY if they agree, otherwise the government HAS to "intrude".
Non-intruders, unless we don't agree.
Tollerant of all opinions, unless your opinion is different.
Accepting of all religions and aetheists, unless you try to pray in public.

Frightening times!!

Local Happenings

What is going on in the 'ville?
Well, we have been praying for Julia Ray since Monday when she received a skull fracture when the entertainment system at her house fell on her. She has been a Egleston since she was life flighted there. Things are looking good, but we are waiting for the results of the CT Scan this morning to show less blood than yesterday in the brain. Jac and Jody need to bring that baby home!!
Carrie Panter Trotter's graduation party is Saturday evening, and I can't wait to see my whole family. (Havn't seen everyone since Christmas!!)
My dad's birthday is also this weekend!! And I am going to attempt a German Chocolate Cake for the event!! Mema Flossie used to do this, but can't now and dad did his own last year, but I don't think that is right having to bake your own cake for your birthday, so I'll let you know!!
I am going to cook sumpin goooood on Sunday because my wife is the best mother in the world to our children!! I might even make (err. I mean let) the children help me in the kitchen!! LOL.
This past Sunday was 16 weeks since the heart attack. 16 weeks since my last cigarette. Down a few pounds from exercise and eating better!! Good stuff.
