Mothers Day May 10th in Okeechobee

We went to Timothy's Sunday School class and watched part 3 of They Sold Their Souls for Rock N' Roll which I would highly recommend after only seeing the one part. It was very informative and blew my mind completely.



They gave mothers and grandmothers a yellow rose in the church service and this was mine the next day. It smelled so good too!!








I was then surprised by Timothy telling me that he was going to be BAPTIZED!!! YAY!!! It was so exciting to see him go into the waters.









Afterwards we went to the Crossroads Diner and then came back to the Farm to hang out until it was time to go to the farm next door. They have a pond there where the guys climb up and jump off into the pond from a swing. I wasn't good yet at taking the flying shots so I didn't get one of Timothy.

May 9th in Okeechobee with Timothy

We started our day with an airboat tour and saw all sorts of birds, babies, dozens of baby alligators and a hint of a couple big alligators in the water (which was fine by me don't need to see them up close and personal).















































































































































































Birds and babies














We ate lunch at Lightsey's. Timothy had a burger and I had crab cake salad and we both tried the frog leg appetizers...tastes like chicken. The wait was long but we got there at prime time. The food was really good though and it gave us time to chat and Timothy to make phone calls to family. The decor was very interesting too.

Happy Easter!!

Kylie and Tory visit the Easter bunny. I couldn't have said it better myself so I'll leave you with my sister's words:

As for the three in the photo, what can I say, not even the Easter Bunny was paying attention...

Riverwalk and the Bees Knees

Last Saturday my brother Damon and Tim came down from Charlotte to visit for the day. We went down to the Riverwalk and took pictures of the river from the Augusta, GA side looking towards North Augusta, SC and then walked along broad street checking out the shops and posing with the muscle people until the Bees Knees opened at 5. Doug met us there and we had wonderful tapas! The girls from the quilt guild go there sometimes before quilting bees and I was hoping they would like it too...and they did. It was yummy and I love getting to try different things. It was over too soon and they headed back to Charlotte but it was a fun day!!
