T-Ball Team Party

Khirey, Chloe, Will, Sean (Anthony in back not on team), Daniel, Brady and Korey.

We were missing Cody, Jalasia and Lucy. I wish they could have been there, but things came up.

We were able to pass out to each player their first trophy for sports along with the team and individual pictures we had taken. All of them had a great time at the Splash Pad.

We had a fantastic year! I really grew to appreciate each one of these children and their own special characteristics. You know, God makes each of us different and you don't fully appreciate that until you coach 4 year old t-ball.

I can't wait until next year!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you know Will then you will know
that is his favorite movie. We have
every car made from this movie. I mean
every CAR!

T-ball Season Over

Well, tonight was our last game for 4 year old t-ball. Will had alot of fun and met alot of new friends. He enjoyed playing with all his new buddies. He learned alot about playing ball and enjoyed everyone that came out to watch him play. He just wished that his dogs, Buzz and Pal could have come to one of his games. Oh, he also wished CoCo the cat could have come.
We really had a good time as a family and look forward to playing next year.

As we said each game, 1-2-3 D-Backs!

In the post that follows this one you will find Will, Khirey and Korey Burris. These were two great kids that played on our team and I look forward to Will playing with them in the future and growing up together. Great family and two wonderful little boys that loved t-ball.

Wedding Day!

Will had the opportunity to be in a wedding this weekend. Thanks to Wes Harbin and his new bride, Traci for allowing Will to be a part of their special day.
For those of you a little nervous, Will did great! I think he likes the camera (he gets that from his mom).
May God bless Wes and Traci with many years of happiness.

Mothers Day 2008







What a great Mother's Day! After church we had lunch in T-town with my mom/dad, brother, Tony (his family: wife Julie, son Caleb and daughter Anna Jane) and sister, Debra (her family: husband John and daughter Chloe). Great time. Plus, the lunch was FREE!
We left there and went to spend time with Donna's mom. Also, we got to see her sister, Sherry and her girls (Kaitlin, Ashlin and Anna Scott). Nice visit.
Left there and actually dropped Will off at mom/pop's for a little while. I had to go see a clients new home. Nice that Donna and I had a little time to ourselves.
Returned to my folks to go to p.m. church with them. Dinner afterwards and back home to Fayette.
Great day! I am lucky to have a wonderful mother, mother-in-law and the best wife/mom for spouse that a guy and a little boy could ask for.
May God bless each one with many more years of happiness and good health.

Bad Weather!

I hate bad weather! It's almost 2 a.m. and I am still watching. Just got Donna and Will out of the closet. The weather never really got terrible here, but the tv guys were saying we had rotation right on top of us. I guess you can never be too safe. Plus, Donna's dad has told me that it is my responsibility to take care of Donna and Will (he doesn't seem to worried about me).

I wish these guys on the tv would just shoot straight to me. Don't play it up. Just tell me the facts and let me know when to get down. They seem to get a little carried away. I know, we are lucky to have them and the information they provide.

Well, thank you Lord for the protection and assurance you provide. As a Christian I know we are always in your care. Regardless of our fate you always take care of your children.

Monster Trucks at Thunder Valley


Will and I went to Thunder Valley dirt track tonight with a couple of friends. Yes, I was the only one there wearing a pink polo.
They had special Monster Truck night. Will loved it! Then we watched the dirt track cars run. There was a wreck during the first race. We were hooked.
I wish my nephew Caleb had been with us tonight. He loves racing. He would have thought this was so cool.
One thing I noticed was that out here in the middle of the woods on this dirt track there was no NO. 24. A bunch of 8 or 88 (little Dale Jr.), but no Gordon. Oh well, maybe Will can run the 24 on the dirt track in a few years. I will keep you all updated.

One Stuck Truck!



If you think that my truck appears to be stuck on the right side that would be correct. Hey, not only did I get stuck, but I got stuck in the driveway of a clients lakefront home. No, that was not one of my better moments.

It gets better. Originally I was not so far off to the right. Then I called my lawyer friend, Chuck to help me get out. With his help my truck acutally almost slid off the retaining wall. He thought it would be cool to see my $40k truck laying on its side. I think his words were, "hey, you have insurance don't you?"

Well, I eventually called the wrecker service to pull me out. Took 5 minutes once he got there. I should have called him from the start.

Just another day in the life of a small town country boy. For the record I was wearing a blue silk dress shirt, black Cole Haun shoes and black dress pants. Black aligator belt. Not everyday you see that outfit digging gravel from under a stuck truck.

Country Folks Can Survive







Well, I've told all of you that I'm just a small town country boy. Here are a few pictures from our family outing tonight.
If you know Will then you know he loves the movie "Cars." Today while on an appointment at a clients house in the country I saw this old combine sitting in his field. Again, if you know the movie "Cars" then you know it looks like Frank.
After supper Donna, Will and I took a ride, so I could show him "Frank."
Then we went to another clients, Mr. Bill "Papa Bill" Musgroves to look at his tractors. While there Will called this little donkeys over to the truck. Donna wasn't that crazy about the idea.
Then for the goats. My buddy, Larry Humber's daughters, Hannah and Mary have recently become goat farmers. Here you see Pete and Mable.
Another good night of family time.
