To Alabama and Back!!

Hello friends,

We had a wonderful visit this past weekend with my sister Kim and her family in their Alabama home! I was finally able to love all over my little nephew Kid Cade, and boy, do I miss them all now. The ride over on Friday morning was uneventful, except for the deluges of rain we labored through until we were twenty minutes over the Alabama state line. It was hairy at times, but the Lord saw us through, and we made it safely to their house, and in time for lunch, too! We ate like kings, were thoroughly entertained by Kid Cade, and learned how to play a new game that my bil Dan built called Monkey Balls. It was great fun, and so easy to learn and play!! IF I had a digital camera, I could have taken a picture and included it, but alas, I have no digital camera, YET, so no pictures. My birthday is in April; maybe I'll get a digicamera for my birthday (hint, hint!).

In other news, the kiddos and I will be extras this afternoon for a taping of Dinner and a Movie. We get to go sit at the local Sonic and eat for about 3 hours while they move cameras around us and yell things like "Take 30," and "Cut," and, hopefully, by 5 p.m., "That's a wrap!" Our payment for participating is a Sonic gift card, which I'm sure we'll be ready to use in about 2 weeks when we've forgotten that we ate Sonic for 3 hours straight! But we LOVE our local Sonic, especially their $1 menu. The Chicken Strip Sandwich is GOOD! And they have Happy Hour every day from 2-4 p.m. when their drinks are half price. And on Tuesday nights, their burgers are half price. Yaaayyyy!! Anyway, I'll try to let you know how it goes.

Blessings!
