More Mississippi

So they found a kitty behind the shed.  These three were 

pretty happuy about it. 

I wached it all go down from the workout room.

I even got Drew painting.  

Newest additon.

One of the few group shots we took, not sure why,

I think we were just doing normal life. 

Always creating. 

Gally (Gallagher) Searchlight (honor of Papa D)

He finally got a cap gun!

Then a surprise....these guys appeared int he driveway.

Tia surprised the kids with horse rides!

And we realized we were matching!

This is Cowboy and he was so kind to come and

bring his horses and give us all some good fun

and good laughs!

Dev and I had some good laughs watching Bobo 

on the smaller horse, kinda reminesent of a 

clown at a rodeo.

Camria's first ride longer than a minute.

Then it was time to burn ant hills, a childhood 

memory for Drew to pass down.  

One morning at school, Tia showed us a mustard

seed and we talked about faith.

And its an outing!!  We traveled a bit to the fancy

grocery store!

The kitty had to stay outside, so Cambria

found herself outside as well. She loved the kitty.

Here we go....bye bye long hair!

Tia took us to her Salon she used to have years ago.  What a treat!

More things we painted. 

Met up with family which was very fun!

Before picure....we hope we picked the right blue!

Helping to organize and clean.

Looking for the right paint color!

So we went from yellow, to light blue, to a different shade of blue.

Time with more family. 

Paintng next to dinner.

Just a picture I wanted to remember.

Andrew spent hours in this room.

Loving Tia by trying to make sure

in this new season of life she would 

have some affiars settled. 

Oh these Mississippi days, they are so distinct

in my mind.  In moments it was as if our life

stopped and we stepped into another.  I am thankful

we had this time with out kids and with Tia,

admidst all the pain.
