Popcorn Time Again

Well, it looks to be time for the annual Boy Scout Popcorn Sales. This is the main fundraiser for the Boy Scout Troops each year. The money raised from this funds the activities that the boys do during the year. So please support the Boy Scouts as they sell!

Fun With Granddad

I took a trip with Joe to Chattanooga yesterday. While we were gone Granddad kept the boys and took them to school and picked them up. On Sunday afternoon Granddad told Butch to bring his baseball stuff with him. He then told us that he was going to take Butch to the ball field to practice his pitching. Bubba asked, "What about me? What will I do?" Granddad responded with "Sit on the bleachers and do your homework!"

Great Labor Day

Today we had a wonderful day with our families! We went up to Metcalf Bottoms Picnic area for breakfast. My mother-in-law makes the best mountain breakfast! We had a picnic site right by the river which made all the kids happy. They were just eager to get into the water. After breakfast the younger kids got in the water and most of the rest of us hiked up to the Little Greenbrier School house. When we returned we got in the river. It was so much fun to watch the three "boys" (Joe, Wesley & BJ) trying to rearrange stones to get a little pool for us to sit in. They got distracted by all the crawdads, though. So along with the older children we captured the crawdads until we were ready to eat lunch. After lunch the kids were all back out in the water. My little Otter did not want to get out of the water except to eat. She did not want to leave! We were all worn out when we got home.
