Easter at the Bellamy's

Leon? Caught in the act of chewing tobacco and talking.

Acquire The Fire ATF

Taylor headed to Winston/Salem North Caroline with the church Youth group friday morning. Our church Youth group have gone to ATF a few times but this is Taylor' s first time. I am curious to see how much he enjoyed his time in a different atmosphere. I have posted the ATF schedule at the bottom of this post. Looks like they have been pretty busy. Taylor actually called about 30 minutes ago and said they were just leaving to get something to eat. That was one long day drama, powerful worship, uplifting messages, and christian music. The group will be back in the early evening so please pray for a safe trip home.
Check out the acquire the fire website for more information on this great rally for youth.

Fun Expedition

Last Friday another worker and I took three brothers from Foster Care to Fun Expedition to let them visit with one another. Tamra was out of school so I took her with us. They all had a good time. The other worker and I? Well, they wore us out! HA! I think I would have been less tired if I had worked in the office all day! Shoo, I am getting old!

Lee High Baseball 08'

The JV Team played JI Burton at home on the 17th. Tay played 3rd base and he pitched the last inning. I can't remember the score but I do know we beat them. The next night the Varsity team played Cumberland, KY and we lost by a couple of points, it was just a scrimmage. Taylor plays on the Varsity team as well as the JV team this year! I think that makes about a total of 44 games not to mention little extra 'scrimmages' we have here and there! I was exhausted before so I can just imagine how I will be when baseball is over!! UGH!

By the way, I didn't take as many pictures of Taylor playing because I was trying to video tape! HA! I have a hard time doing both at the same time! I am only one person you know!

Tay has a Varsity game monday night at Coeburn but I probably won't make it! It is going to be really cold and Coeburn is too far for me to go on a work night! Tuesday he has a Varsity game at home to be played at two in the day! How stupid is that? Do these coaches not realize most parents are working at two in the day?

Catfish

Leon caught this catfish on his first fishing trip of the year. I have no idea what kind of catfish he said this was but I did hear catfish. I think he said it weighed 38lbs. Looks gross to me! I'm just curious where it is now because I never actually saw this thing with my eyes. I guess if it is somewhere close I will smell it! LOL!

This afternoon has brought some thunderstorms. It seems so strange to be hearing thunder when it was so cold two days ago. Weather can be so strange!

Taylor headed for a 4H training session for two days in Abingdon. He interviewed last Thursday for 4H Counselor and made it! He will now have to go through some training sessions before summer camp. I believe he was excited about going away for two days.

Snow

Here's our little bit of snow we received the morning of the 27th. Seems like it was enough somewhere to call school off. As the day went on we got a little bit more but not much.
There wasn't even enough to make snow cream! HA!
