New birth and a hearty send off


This is our New Year addition. A cute little lamb with black eyeliner and black tipped ears.

The other picture is new favorite photo. Sugar is getting really big and the rows behind are just ready for planting. Unfortunately, we are having a serious lack of rain with none in the forecast. It also doesn't help that our mornings have been below 20 degrees.

Our son James left today to go back to his Army base for training. We are so proud of him. He is doing very well and really loves it. The downside is his needing to leave his family. His beautiful wife Melissa drove him to San Francisco to catch the plane back to South Carolina. I took care of my two grandbabies today. Landon will be 2 years old the day after tomorrow and Carter will be 8 weeks old the same day. They really had a great 2 weeks while he was home and we are all very thankful that he was able to be here. It sounds strongly that he may be deployed shortly after he completes his training so please keep him in your prayers.


"We owe our troops the opportunity to serve in the best-planned, best-equipped, and best-led military force in the world, and we owe them the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they and their families will be taken care of if they sacrifice life, limb or the ability to sleep without war's nightmares. We owe them not just thanks and best wishes, but action, and action in our nation's capital.”
Senator John Kerry quotes (American Senator, b.1943)
