Just when i thought it was over

Just when i thought it was over ball season that is i come back from the grocery store today and find out Hunter and Caleb have joined a Church Softball League.
They really need us Caleb said lol i thought OK. I would rather them do this then alot of other things, they have been soooooooooooooo good the past week i am afraid there really up to something. We were going to take a trip to NC but i think we will go somewhere else instead for a few days. That is after i find the lucky person to take care of the 3 dogs, 2 birds, a kitten who weights a whooping almost 2 lbs and Hunters turtle he found in the road on the way home from Church Sunday, i am telling you all this family isn't right, but what fun we have.

Why I Love Where I live

I have had so many people ask me "Why in the world did you ever move back here?" You can best bet these folks has never lived in a big city! I was raised here in this little town of 1,100 since i was 9 years old. I now live in the same house i was raised in! When i was 27 we moved to Asheboro, N.C. after my divorce from a real nut me and the kid's moved to Raleigh to get away. Why i choose Raleigh I will never no but i am sure glad and have been very blessed because that's where i met Donnie. I love this little town because there is no traffic, no road rage, everyone knows everyone, and yes most likely everyone knows every one's business that part i could take away if i could. When your house burns down, whoever has a empty one says it's yours till you get on your feet, they have showers for them too and the whole dern town shows up! The school's here are much better then those IN NC because the class rooms are much smaller child wise. We live a block from the big main street which consist of only a Post Office, Flower shop, Funeral Home, and a museum, yep the town has a museum. The little country store is a half block from me, if you send your kid to get something and your short a dime or quarter no problem, bring it back next time and have a good day! I do miss my friends i left in Raleigh and especially Morehead City, but i wouldn't move back for anything!

Caleb wants to drive

Yesterday Donnie let Caleb pull the truck around to the back of the house, he did a great job i might add. We have a 5 speed and he did a whole lot better then i did where i was trying to learn how. He will be 16 in Jan. i can't believe how the years have went by so fast, It seems like just yesterday that he was a little guy! We have now started looking for a used car for him, maybe one that him and papa can work on and have ready come this Jan.
