Pics from the Tennessee Jones reunion

Cousins; Above Trystan playing.... below Logan playing...
Logan with play doh- always his favorite thing to play with..and make a mess out of. He and Trystan had fun playing with this on Brion's porch.
Hmmm, Logan is thinking... I wonder what mess I can make next!
Above, Clay and Nicole with little Creedon. Too cute.
Above, Uncle Aaron and Creedon.
The Zingaro girls...getting so grown up.

To Tennessee

So, I haven't written in a while..going over the mountains and through the woods to Grandma's house in Tennessee today. We'll talk more about me when I get back. I promise.

Snake in washer

Oh my gosh! You have to go to CNN and see this lady that found a python sitting in her washed load of laundry. It will freak you out. I have a MAJOR snake phobia now that we are here in this great state of NC. I would have peed my pants. You have to go to CNN and watch the video. It's like insane, really.
I'm going to Tennessee today! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Goal Challenge

So..long day at work. I'm tired. Anyone reading this blog might hear that a lot. Sorry, but it's my party and I'll cry if I want to:)
I went to church yesterday and we had a great lesson on goals and self esteem. Thought I'd share. We all need a little "self help", now and then. We were challenged to write 6 different areas and attach a goal to it. I am still thinking about mine. I will share more when I can get them down concretely (haven't had the time to do so yet) The areas include:
Spiritual
Intellectual
Physical
Service
Character
Financial
Another thought..write down one thing that you should NOT do, and stop doing it!
Let me know some of your ideas, and/or, think about these things for yourself. Oprah says to draw a posterboard and put it on the wall(at least someone told me Oprah said that).
You must see things in writing though. Often we do work that way.
A great book that was shared was "3 cups of tea"
Can't personally attest to it, but I am going to get it and see how it goes. I have heard from others it's about having tenacity and doing great things. We always need inspiring lierature don't we?

Oh, anyone who is not sure how this blog works, you can leave a comment and we can chat that way. Thank you to those of you who have. I enjoy our friendships GREATLY. I don't always get the chance to get to everyone as much as I would like. Phone calls are tough with a 2, almost 3 year old who interrups me as often as he can. I also get caught up in my daily life. So, not only is this very retrospective (and introspective)for me, I can keep in touch with many of you on a more regular basis.
I am grateful for your friendships. I couldn't ask for better.

Little Logan..big personality

July 4th holiday.

So, here is the trial blog! I just started this and don't know how much time I can dedicate, but I'm going to try! I love the idea of journaling and this is the computer version of that. I will be adding photos and such to stay current. Anyone interested, please add your comments.

Well, today is the 4th of July weekend, which apparently I now have off. I was supposed to work a 12 hour day shift today but I was cancelled.
So..this is what I am doing instead.
We are going to try to go to Womble Park tonight to catch the fireworks party. Last night we briefly got together with our neighbors for some cul de sac entertainment in the sky. Logan loved it, yet looked petrified at the same time. I thought he was going to cry, then he said "more, more" when they were all done.
I wish I were at the beach....
