Good times with the Girls!!

A little of this and a little of that

Some kids need to go to playgrounds to be amused, some kids might want to see a movie to be entertained, some kids are more easy to entertain ...



Some kids are very impatient and can't wait their turn ....

Some kids like to cheer for their teams....

Kids grow up way to fast!! I guess we should enjoy them while we can!!

Welcome home!!!

Thursday October 23 is the whole reason for the trip... well for most people!! I really just wanted to get away from Arkansas for a while!!

Hahaha Just kidding Goldie!!

Travis McGarrah had been serving a mission for the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
in the Sacramento California area for two whole years!

A lot of people turned out to welcome Elder McGarrah home!
Drea and Myca waited patiently for Elder McGarrah

Quite a few people from the ward in Huntington came and they even waited patiently!

Angel and Myca waited patiently!!

Charity .... not so much!! I think she wanted me to pluck her chin hairs either that or she wanted a kiss... either way it was NOT GONNA HAPPEN!!!

Just kidding... We were real bored and just trying to have some fun!

The kids had fun playing on the luggage belt! I think they kinda thought it was their own personal stage!!

FINALLY!!! THE MAN OF THE HOUR ARRIVED!!!

For all of those who are wondering .... That is Charity with the weird sort of Psychotic laugh!!
LOVE YA CHARITY!!!

One LONG trip!

Another road trip for Kiannah and Aubrey!!
The trip started out in at 6 am on Oct. 22, 2008. We left our house and drove 3 hours to Aubrey's house in Little Rock. Once there we loaded up all of Aubrey's things and headed through Tennessee and then Kentucky.

Then we also went to West Virginia and Ohio !!! 10 hours later we made it to our destination!

The trip was very long but it was the perfect time of year to make the trip. The girls were very happy to finally be out of the car! Surprisingly they did a great job traveling!!

Too much time!

So I ran across these two pictures! I am sure most everyone has seen these at some time or another. The first one is a picture of a Nebula as allegedly seen through a NASA telescope. The second is when someone searching for a "sign from God" put a picture of Christ over the Nebula! Ok.... There are a lot of sightings of Jesus and I myself find it funny where he "turns up at"!! Here he is as an MRI result and as a spot in a wooden fence!

Here he is as a Cheeto.... Are you kidding me? Our savior has nothing better to do than to play hide and seek????

They even have a website with a few more spottings of him!!
Jesus Hops around
Either people have NO LIFE or Jesus has a sense of humor!!!

My Civic Duty!!

Yep that is right!!! Davone and I voted today!!! Early voting started yesterday, but Davone had the day off from work today! We both already knew who and what we were going to vote for and so we decided to beat the crowds and do our voting early!!! I can only imagine how hectic it will be on November 4, 2008!! We can just sit on our couch with our fingers crossed and wait for the results to pour in!!
We respect every one's own decisions on who they wish to vote for, so please respect ours and do not search for a long drawn out conversation about why or who we voted for!!! This is America after all and you can vote for who you wish and I HAVE voted for who I wish!!
NOW DO YOUR CIVIC DUTY AND VOTE ON NOVEMBER 4TH ( or before )!!!!

Kiannah and Aubrey ... Reunited at last!!!

Yesterday Angel, Kiannah, and I took a road trip to go to Little Rock! Kiannah was so very excited about the opportunity to see Aubrey!!! After nearly two months apart the girls were finally reunited!!! Kiannah had to wake up at 5:15am so that we can get her ready and leave here by 6:00am. Kiannah didn't mind she has been counting down this day for a while now! Angel was here on time and we packed up the car then we were off!!!

Aubrey and Coleman are so cute!! I am trying to teach them that ALL monkeys are named Grandpa Larry ( after their Grandpa not my dad! )

3 hours later we made it Little Rock! We got to Trevor and MaryAnn's and Aubrey was hiding from us. It took her a little while to warm up to us but when she did Kiannah and Aubrey picked up where they left off!! Coleman grew up so much in the past 2 months! He isn't a baby anymore he is a little man!

We didn't have any plans for the trip. I had bought some items she needed from the Filipino store here in Fayetteville, and MaryAnn was nice enough to cook for us!


The food was Awesome!! MaryAnn did a great job!! Right after dinner we had to leave to come home!! Kiannah wasn't too sad but she is counting down the days until she can go back!!

Economical Christmas Presents?

Maybe this year she should only get boxes!!!

The next American Idol?

I think it is so cute!!! Too bad that is all that I could get!!

Imanni enters the workforce!

Imanni and Johanthan have been out of school ALL week, So today Imanni went to work with Davone! She worked in the design department with Lacey and Carol. She stayed at work with Davone the whole day. She even took lunch break with Davone. She help sweep the back room and she helped the design ladies with a couple of things. She was able to pick out the items needed to make an arrangement and then the ladies helped her make an "Imanni Original". She was so excited and it turned out beautiful!!

Crutches and Mom do not go together!

My mother has been complaining for some time now about her knee hurting her! She has been limping around for about a month now and complaining of her knee hurting. Today she finally went to the Hospital to have someone examine her. She went to Washington Regional Medical Center and was seen by Dr. McGhee. We are not quite sure what has happened but the Doctor seems to think that she has tore something in her knee. She has been instructed to contact a Orthopedic Surgeon. For now she has been sent home on crutches and a knee immobilizer.

Johnny boy enter's the workforce!!!

Johnathan was so excited and happy that he got to go to work with Davone! I helped him by packing his lunch and then off to work he went!

He helped to take apart some shelves and load some stuff up in a truck!

He enjoyed having lunch break and even called home to let me know that when he got off work he wanted to come home and put his feet up and play video games.... I guess he is just like Davone!! :)
The lesson learned? Well after working ALL day. He only earned $1.00. I told him that is how life is. You work hard all day and after you pay everything you need too that is how much you have left over! GO TO COLLEGE!!! Hahaha
