We Have Been Very Blessed
Memorial Day week-end: BJ's only daughter and son-in-law drove down here from North Carolina to bring us gifts. They brought each of our boys 2 new outfits, took JR shopping and got her all kinds of cute clothes and let her pick out tons of favorites from the grocery store. Also lots of stocking stuffer things from Christmas they never got around to sending that were gems brought this much later. They were so kind, loving and gracious they touched all of our hearts.
Second week of June: From Caregiver Assistance we received a check made out to Goody's for $300 for clothing for the kids. When we got to Goody's, they had this grand sale going on that actually allowed us to purchase $600 in clothing! The kids are dressing mighty fine these days and all they need for school is socks, underwear things and shoes (they also sent us a check for $150 made out to Shoe Show).
Life is good and we are blessed!

Thanks to the generousity of an organization here in TN, Relative Caregiver Assistance, me and the rugrats spent an entireday at Lake Winnie literally within 15 miles of our house. We rode rides, ate too much junk and walked and walked and walked. GB became addicted to the centrafuge ride that used to be called The Round-up. TL and TM paddled boated their big grandma across the lake and back again----bless their tiny little skinny legs! JR an GB piloted airplanes. JR won purple beads for making the bell ring on the stong-man sledge hammer game and the two little ones each won a blow up guitar (ya'all know this IS Elvis country). We walked and rode and played all day. The last ride of the day we all rode the boat shoot. Everyone got sprinkled except me-----I got drenched. I made sure all the kids had sunscreen on and then I burnt to a crisp! I am posting these postcards for my siblings as it reminded me so much of our childhood neighborhood amusement park. Meyers Lake Park--I can remember "kids day" each year when every ride was only a nickle. Ok, so I am gonna be 52 in a couple of days. All in all, we had a great day as a great family.
