Ok, so I am a dummy

I love this photo of Alyx, after the dinner:

Alyx & Homecoming

Happy Monday to all!

Alyx wasn't the homecoming queen, we were mildly dissapointed, but what a great time we all had! It was an honor for her to be nominated. She is such an impressive young woman, in mind, body & heart. :-)

I will try to put some photos at snapfish... if this dummy can't figure it out, I'll come back and post a couple here

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLOUD!

Today is Cloud's birthday and here is my toast to him:

To wish you joy on your birthday

And all the whole year through,

For all the best that life can hold

Is none too good for you.

That did not stink! It was a good one!

Okay-who can come up with a better one!

Happy Friday Ya'll

Hello everyone, I hope that this Friday finds you all feeling well and in good spirits. Not much new here, will get up my last cutting of hay on Saturday. We are excited for the homecoming parade this afternoon, won't know until half-time if Alyx is the homecoming queen. I have my fingers crossed. Hope to have some pictures to post next week of the parade. We have been having an awesome summer here. Nice sleeping weather at night- high 40's to low 50's and then 70-80 during the day. The trees are changing colors already, geese are flocking up, It may be an early winter.

Well, back to work for me. I'll post more when I can.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CATHI!!!

Love ya!

p.s. I'm going to cut you a break and not reveal the things we've kept as kuzin secrets! (but I have prayed forgiveness for daboatovus!!!) lol! We DID have some great times tho didn't we??? I wouldn't change a thing. (um...Mom? Aint Aud? ...just kidding) Truth is, we were innocent of all those charges. Ask Donna. It wasn't our fault. We were forced to disobey. Honest. We were just trying to keep the mob from hurting our families. A big price to pay. Thank God we did it!!

For the Ladd men only; ladies, please do not read

Quote for the day, for all us Ladd men:

'Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply
If you give her a house, she'll give you a home
If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal
If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart
She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her
So - if you give her crap
you will receive more $hit than any one human being can handle

Hey Ya'll, it'f FRIDAY

Yehaw! It's Friday, so as ya'll have come to expect (sorta) it is time for me to check in and see how silly I can be!!

Ok, I am outta silly stuff, so I'll get on with the update....

I just learned that Alyx will be on the homecoming court this year!!! whoooooooooooohooooooo
I dont know yet if she is the Senior representative or the Queen... I am crossing my fingers and hoping she is the Queen... it am just so excitin!!!

Tomorrow, we will travel 40 miles or so for a volleyball tourny with Alyx, then as soon as that is over we will race on over to Big Rapids to watch Julaine's boyfriend play college football. They one by one point last Saturday, blocking the opponents field goal attempt as time expired... what a hoot!

We can rest up on Sunday :-), hopefully it'll rain all day and I can watch football without feeling guilty for not working in the yard.

Well, summer is almost over. I am hopeful that folks start posting more frequently. I'll try to do my share (now there's a surprise eh? lol)

well, be good & be safe

love ya'll

I'll let ya know more when I do

bye for now
