Look what I found in the monkey grass!

Look what I found in my planter beside the chimney! No, it wasn't a monkey, but it was Sam, the beagle, laying in the monkey grass!

He made him a nice soft bed.

Don't know if the monkey grass will stand back up again or not, but it was cute to see him laying there!

WMS Bible Study & Fellowship

"God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high..."Heb. 1:1-3

We had a fun evening of studying God's Word and fellowshiping with one another!

So thankful for my church family!!

Some of my birthday lute!

When I got home from work, my sis-in-law, Sarah had this wonderful cake sitting on my kitchen counter. It was all I could do to get the picture taken before digging in! It was good!

Carole gave me this Alabama platter!

Keaton had to have his picture taken with it.

He said that he wanted to eat off of it every night!

Roll Tide, that's my boy!

Roll Tide!

I have this sitting in my kitchen. Sarah knows how much I love candles. She and the kids gave me this one with 3 different flavors to it. Smells so good. Love my Vera Bradley!

Kathie, Matthew & our friend Judy took me out for my birthday lunch this week.

We went to El Rancheros. I thought that was my birthday present, but then they surprised me with this Vera purse! I just love it! Also, had the id holder to go with it!

This basket of goodies is from my other sis-in-law Emily! I always love to see what see comes up with. It so much fun to go through the basket and see what all kind of goodies are hidden in there. She can just throw anything together and make it look like a million bucks! **************************************** I also got lots of sweet birthday cards, and birthday wishes from my Facebook friends too! Thanks to all my family & friends for making this another very special birthday!

Our great niece's 1st birthday!

Celebrating our great niece's 1st birthday!

Tony's great niece Raven was born on my birthday - Sept 6, 2008!

Of all the September birthdays in our family, she picked mine!

Her pretty high chair and birthday hat that her grandma Emily made.

Raven and her great-grandmother Sandra & Raven Proud grandpa Donnie!

Raven opening her gifts!

She is the first child that I have ever seen open her own presents at her first birthday party. Keaton didn't want to have any part of his gifts. But she sat right there and opened every one of them. She was so much fun to watch!

More presents!

Wonder what's in there?

She had to have a bite of cookie before her birthday cake!

The pretty little birthday girl!

Her birthday hat was pretty, but she didn't really like to wear it!

The birthday cupcake!

Yummy!

Happy 1st birthday, Raven!
