The tree, up on your right is where they zip line begins. We now have a nice ramp, NO Ladder.



Papa has the zip line up and Tryston and Ariana are loving it. And why not??? 200 feet of flying freely through the sky. Does it get any better than this? How did we survive when we were children without all these fun things?

Dan gave the zip line a try before he let the children on it and he even admitted, "It's fun".

Yesterday, I saw Ariana take Kit for a ride down the zip line. Oh, I guess you don't know who Kit is. Well she is Ariana's little black kitten. I must say, she seemed to enjoy the ride too.

Stay tuned, with the home schooling going on around here we may be doing more and adding more blogs. The children are doing so well with the schooling and their music. I'm proud and they are HAPPY!! God Bless

We had a fun day at Davy Crockett State Park. Ariana and Tryston love to play in the water fall. The water was nice and warm and the day was really very nice. Lots of sun but not hot. Pa Dave and Grandma Fran went with us, (Nana & Papa) to take the day trip. It is only about 2 1/2 hours from our house. Fried chicken and potatoe salad with cake and cookies. You just can't beat that. We love to picnic.

It has taken a while for me to get any pictures up from our week in Hot Springs. This was our twenty fifth year, we still have friends that were also enjoying their twenty fifth year. It has been fun, each and every year. We are so glad that we decided to purchase the condo when we did. It has been a great time for all. Our children have grown up vacationing there and now our grandchildren are following suit. This is Alex's first year there and next year will be her little brothers first year. Baby Boy Dudley will be born in January, 2009. Erin is doing well and enjoyed her time in Hot Springs this year too. Tryston and Ariana both spent their days water skiing and knee boarding. They can only drive the jet ski when Papa and Damon are on it with them but they do love to drive it. They kept Dan and Damon busy and I stayed busy taking those pictures. GREAT TIME had by all.

Honoring 911

On April 20, 2000 we were all in NYC and enjoyed a nice day seeing the sites and shopping. Ariana was only 16 Days old but she acted like it was all okay. I never saw the bird in-between the twin towers until after I got home and printed the picture. We left Delaware six weeks later.

Never would we have dreamed that was the last time we would ever see these buildings.

God bless all those touched by this disaster.

You are in our prayers again.
