New Office

This is my new office! Note the my lovely work station area and the polka dot furniture I picked out for the lobby. The view of the van and the men in striped jump suits across the street is the inmate work crew waiting to get back into the jail for dinner. The jail is the big white building you see. When Eric is working and he arrests someone, he pulls his car into that garage door and takes the prisoner into the jail.

Some other things...

Allyson made these cookies all herself and decorated them...and then was the perfect hostess and served us all!

Mrs. Barbara was our guest on Friday! Allyson is chatting in her room.

It's time for those awful goodbyes!

Here is a link to 3 videos I took while Daddy and Mama were here:

Thankful Thursday

We lounged around in the morning...Travis and Allyson playing w/an empty box...Grandaddy and Kaleb laughing...Mama and I chatting.

We drove to one of the many marinas on Norris Lake that's about 20 minutes from our house.

Cooking a late night snack...New York strip steaks...

Eating, laughing, and loving...

Be our guests!

Allyson explaining something very important to Grandaddy and Grandmother!

Kaleb and Allyson tucking Grandaddy and Grandmother in for the night. Gotta get our rest for another BIG day of nonstop FUN tomorrow!

what you looking at Mera?

The butterflies are back for the winter, so we went yesterday to look at them.Mera was able to see them this year through the scope.
She thought that it was pretty neat.

The Little Ponderosa Zoo

Travis' favorite thing to do at the zoo...feed the animals grass and leaves.

We live about 5 miles from this zoo...very convenient.

Baby goats are SO cute!
