Sometimes I look back...

Do you ever look back while looking ahead?  I will try to explain!  Autumn's Fella is getting ready to go away to College!  I know that she is going to miss him terribly!  He came to watch her play ball the other night and I watched him watch her!  I started thinking about when she finishes High School and takes that same path!  She still has two years of School left, but time flies right on by!  We have followed her around since she was a little ball player and will continue into her college years!  Where I am going with this rambling is this little one, standing at the fence is following in her big Sister's path!  She watched from the fence as a baby... Alex loves the game... just like her big Sister!

She watched and learned...

She stands like her Big Sister...

She plays and practices every chance she gets...

Even on the beach...

I love watching her grow and learn...

She even chose her Sister's number...

Looking up to her Sister, following in her footsteps, Autumn setting the example:)

And Alex coming right behind her!  One is a Junior and one is going into 2nd grade!

I believe we will be watching Softball
for years to come!

Have a blessed day and weekend!  If I am missing, I have a busy week ahead!  Just know that I will check in when I can!  BIG HUGS!

My HOT Thursday...

On a HOT Sunny July Day...

Tracy and I stood in a long line to get into the Snapping Shoals EMC Annual Meeting!

We waited in a long line to vote for the new Board!  It was an important vote to keep our rates low!

We got a bucket full of goodies!

We listened to lots of live music, great band!

We are friends with the President/CEO and got us a hug from this handsome fella!

They gave away 50 prizes, the last prize was this truck!  We didn't win anything but enjoyed our day together!

The day was HOT...

But we ended the day at the ballfield for a double-header watching Autumn's team preparing for Nationals!

Hope you all are having a Fabulous Friday!  I am having lunch with loved ones today:)  Have a blessed day, HUGS!

gotta vote:)

Hope you all have a really blessed day, HUGS!

Relish Day 2012!

YUMMY!  I had it for dinner last night! 
IT WAS YUMMY!

Would you look at all of these jars of pear relish!  My butt was dragging by bedtime!  Who am I kidding, my butt was dragging at 5:00PM:)

Peeling, cutting, chopping... cooking:) 
Put in jars, pop... pop...sealed!

This is my Sister Barbara!  She was peeling pears when I got there yesterday morning and worked hard to get the relish made!  I appreciate your help and knowledge to get it just right!  AND NO, I couldn't do it without you:)

  Some of you asked what is in it!
Here is the recipe!

We made it in 2005, 2008 and 2012....  I think I have enough to last me until perhaps 2016!  Lots of hard work in those jars! 
Thank you Sis,  I Love you!
