Praying mantis

We found this little praying mantis on my aunt and uncles porch. Taylor took these photos. This little thing was brown all over with green legs. It was an ugly little thing but it allowed us to take its picture.

Myrtle Beach 2008

Here's some pictures of our first days at the beach. We've had a pretty good time and great weather. It's supposed to rain tomorrow but we're hoping it waits till we leave.

Our trip to Va Beach

This is the tunnel that goes under the ocean into Va Beach.
Taylor and Torrey getting attacked by a wave. The waves were really coming in fast this day. The current was really strong. I noticed the lifeguards were not allowing people to get very far out at all. The boys actually had one lifeguard whistle at them for going out too far.
Leon getting his surf on. (in two feet of water) ha!

4H Camp 08'

TAYLOR LEFT FOR 4H CAMP BRIGHT AND EARLY THIS MORNING. THIS YEAR TAYLOR IS A TEEN LEADER INSTEAD OF A CAMPER. HE IS IN CHARGE OF THE CAMPERS SO THIS IS A FIRST FOR HIM. HE WENT TO TRAINING AT VIRGINIA TECH DURING 4H CONGRESS. I AM VERY PROUD OF HIS ACCOMPLISHMENT. LOT'S OF PARENTS WERE GLAD TO HEAR TAYLOR WAS GOING SO HE COULD KEEP AN EXTRA EYE OUT FOR THEM. LOL!
THEY WILL RETURN SOMETIME FRIDAY EVENING...............

Happy 16th Birthday Taylor!

I love you Taylor! I'm so proud of you! Love Mom!

Visit with Mamaw

Here's some pictures of Mamaw with Tamra on her first day back in Virginia.

WetLands WaterPark

I am running a little behind on posting pictures. This was a few weeks ago. Tamra went to Camp Creativity for a week and on the last day they went to this park for their field trip.
Amber was there working while Brian brought Grayson, Taylor, and Jared. I took two brothers with me from foster care so our family got to spend time together. Grayson loved it but he wasn't able to stay long. Brian isn't into "water" too much so they left a little early. It was still a good day.

Mom's foot

Happy 10th Birthday Tamra
