I guess I need to have some pictures made. (hint, hint, Anne Marie) This a picture from this time last year. But it least it isn't flip flops!

I absolutely love this fall weather we are finally having. It is a little too cool for me in the mornings, but the afternoons are perfect!! We are going camping this weekend. The kids are out of school Monday, so we are packing up and heading to Oak Mountain. So far, this is the only camp ground we have been to. We love it, and it is so conveniently close to home. But while we are there it seems like we are so far away from everything! We have some friends coming with us this time, so it should be a lot of fun.

The next few weekends are going to be busy! I am looking forward to Halloween and also to my grandmother's birthday party next weekend. "Mama Webb" is turning 90 years old. Wow. Can you imagine all the changes she has seen in her life? She lost her husband in WWII, when my dad was only a few months old. He is the youngest of four, so she raised them alone. She never remarried. I don't believe she ever even went on a date! She poured her life into her family and her church, and they both have always been very important to her.

Mama Webb made all of her grandchildren (15 of us) quilts as wedding gifts. I was the youngest of the grandchildren until my half-sister, Brittany, was born when I was 15. So, most of my cousins married many years before me. Mama Webb gave me my wedding quilt when I was 17, because she said she "may not be around" by the time I married. And here we are celebrating her 90th birthday, I've been married 10 years, and last month she was able to attend Brittany's wedding. She has even attended her great-grandchildren's weddings and now has great-great grandchildren!

Happy Birthday, Mama Webb!.............no, she doesn't really read my blog.

I know...I haven't blogged in a really long time. I just haven't been in the blogging mood. I'm still not really. I feel that I don't have anything that is "blog worthy" going on right now. I can't just write about everyday things and make them interesting. Sorry. So goes the title of my blog.


Hummm.....I'm thinking about the Fall festival at our church right now. I am excited we are having it again this year. Thanks to Stokes and the youth for stepping up. It is always fun. OK, I've heard it described as "rinky dink", but praise God for rinky dink! That probably should be the new title of my blog. "Days of my Rinky-Dink Life"...I kinda like that.

I'm also very excited about the women's retreat this weekend. If there happens to be someone reading this (that is a women) Please come! We had so much fun last year. It is a great time to hang out with women in our church who I may not know very well. You can learn a lot from spending one night with someone in a cabin at Hargis. And of course, last year's motto will continue this year..."What happens at Hargis, stays at Hargis." Except the really important stuff doesn't stay there! Friendships are formed or deepened and you come home with a greater love for Christ and His church!

Carson is waking up from his nap, and it is almost time to go get the girls from school. Oh the joys of carline.
