Fore!

So after 4 days of golf tryouts Bayli made the Dayton City School golf team. She was so very excited and we were so proud. So from looking at the calendar they gave us we will either be practicing golf or playing matches everyday for the rest of my life. Well, maybe not the rest of my life, but at least for the next couple of months. That's okay though, she enjoys it and they will have a lot of fun. Who knows maybe she will continue to play through the rest of her school and maybe get a scholarship. That would be fantastic because college is EXPENSIVE and it looks like she may be going forever for her degree in forensic anthropolgy.

Bojangles

We were talking about the Bojangles restaurant the other day and how good their biscuits are and Lealan told us a story about when him and his friend Danny went into a Bojangles. Well Lealan is 6'4" about 230 lbs and his friend Danny is even bigger than he is and together they make quite a pair. Now Bojangles has all you can eat chicken on Wednesday nights so keep that in mind. One night in Charlotte, which happened to be a Wednesday, him and Danny walk into Bojangles. He said they just had walked in the door and the guy behind the counter hollers to the back of the kitchen to drop some chicken. I laughed so hard because I know the two of them together look like they could eat plenty, but for the guy to actually holler it where they could hear it. I guess he's lucky they are nice guys.

Leftovers

Last Tuesday night I made taco stuff for dinner. That's what we call this skillet of turkey burger, refried beans, tomatos and green chiles that you put over tostitos with lettuce, sour cream, tomatos, jalapenos, cheese, etc etc. Me and Lealan love it, Bayli not so much. Well we had a big skillet of it and we ate it Tuesday and had it for leftovers on Wednesday. Thursday evening Bayli asked what we were having for dinner and I told her there was a little bit of taco stuff left that she could eat. She looked at me and said It's been 3 days it's probably not good, you know it ain't Jesus and then she walked off. Me and Lealan were standing there trying to figure out how she equated Jesus spending 3 days in the tomb with leftovers. She is right however that it ain't Jesus and no matter how good it is it's nowhere near as good as what we are going to have in Heaven!

No sleep

Having a puppy is a lot like having a baby without the diapers. Less sleep, whining, and cleaning up pee and poop. Also so much fun and love. Cecil is so sweet and when he looks at you with those sad eyes it's pitiful. He is really doing well though with his potty breaks. He has had a few accidents, but he is only about 8 weeks old so it will be a little while before he has it all down pat. He is doing pretty well with puppy pads and has went to the front door a few times needing to go out. When he goes out he knows what to do and then he is ready to go right back in. He is supposed to be inside until winter is over, but I heard my husband who isn't near the animal lover that I am say that he didn't know if he would be able to go outside alone for extended periods because his legs are so short and he is hefty he wouldn't be able to get away from anything. However, from the way he stands at the front door and barks at Kenny (outside cat) he would probably do ok. He barks at the out side cat and the inside cat, Princess scares him. But then Princess smacks him and Kenny doesn't. I do see a big puppy paw in Princess's future holding her down before long:)

Cecil is here!

Our new puppy Cecil is finally here at home with us! He is adorable. Like I said before he is half basset hound, half english bulldog. He was super sweet yesterday, but I know there are going to be lots of running back an forth outside with him to get him housebroken and some sleepless nights. It's like having a baby again. Eat, poop, sleep, eat poop, poop, sleep. But he is oh so very cute. Doesn't that face just make you want to give him whatever he wants and to forgive all peeing in the floor! Doesn't it just break your heart and make it melt?

Hallelujah!

Last night youth group was wonderful!!!! Jill teaches the class and I just assist, you know crowd control. She was wonderful last night. The lesson was on Jericho and the walls falling down. It took some turns from the original lesson, but God always knows where to go and what words to put in our mouths. We had 12 kids last night, some of which were there for the first time. 9, count'em nine got saved or rededicated!!!! God is good! It was awesome to watch and be there to see it happen.

Mega ice cream

Last night me and my hubby fixed ourselves some ice cream. I was sitting there eating mine when I noticed he was staring at me. I said what, he asked if I was enjoying my mega bowl of ice cream. Such a smartie pants. I looked at him and said it only looks so big because there is a cookie under it. I don't think I found that answer quite as funny as he did. But the cookie did make my ice cream look mega!
