Glad to be home with mama! Very intense wouldn't you say?

The S. Carolina grandparents have been spoiling Genesis for a while. She's back home with her mommy today. We'll find out how it goes! She's awful cute, don't you think?

Generations. Times goes by. Life goes on. God is good.

Post your generations.

Philip's injured arm

Philip hurt his arm attempting to pick up a piece of plywood he had cut from the porch roof - he apparently grabbed it wrong and said it felt like a lightening bolt went all the way up his arm - he dropped it immediately but not quick enough. We went to the minor medical & the doctor said it was pulled muscle - not serious - she put him through range of motion, etc. It looks awful and these pics were taken 10 days after the injury! Wow. He is going to start working that arm a little to get his strength back! Poor baby!

Cool cow print

Well, shoot, the pics are backwards from the order I wanted - obviously the old yellow vinyl is the BEFORE and the cool cow print is the AFTER. This chair belongs to our friend Peggy who just moved to Indiana. She asked Philip about recovering it and we selected the cow print vinyl and I just loved it. It looks great and is MUCH less expensive than actual cowhide! He's going to put some of this on my little cube footstool so I can enjoy a bit of it at home too!

Catching up - computer back up & running

Well, ever since we got back from Monteagle our computer has been in the shop. Now, we are back and here's an update. The church above is the Episcopal cathedral on the Sewanee College campus in Sewanee, TN at Monteagle Mountain. We go there just about every time we're there to just gaze at the incredible stained glass which goes all the way down both sides and at both ends of the church. Each stained glass has a story or theme - the ones down the sides represent all categories such as literature, science, theology, philosophy etc. and at the front is the round rose window. The entire campus is just a fantastic place. We go into the book store there and browse and go down into the little "town" and shop in the gift shops and cafe. We enjoyed our semi-annual trip there and will look forward to the next one in November. More later. Love to all.

Can't wait for the weekend. I've got to get some sunflower seeds planted so they can start to sprout so we can grow some of these beauties again this year! It is supposed to be a fantastic weekend.

Please pray for our friend Jim and his family as he has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer - it's in multiple places including lungs, bone, etc - and he'll undergo some experimental treatment. He is just the nicest man you could know.

Love to all.
