My Sweetie Pie

My Sweetie Pie :-)

Friends

These pics were taken in the hall during school.

I think they're having a great time in HighSchool :-)

Sleeping Beauty

ROTC

O.M.Gawed!!!  I almost cried when I saw her in her ROTC uniform.  Good grief!

 

I, mean, really ??? 

First Day of Highschool

First Day of HighSchool -- 9th grade!

 

Of course, she couldnt' go by herself ...

 

so we picked up her BFF..

 

My daughter from another mother.

 

OOOooo, AAaahhhh ... High School.

 

And to add to the suspense, a tree had been papered.  Jordi had the usual nerves but when she came home, she called and said she had a great time and loved it !

Our Last "Hoorah" Before School Starts

I surprised Jordan by waking her up at 3:00 am to watch the sunrise at Panama City Beach.  One last "Hoorah" before school starts... Before HIGHSCHOOL begins... Before she goes to prom... Before she goes off to college... Before she gets married and has children...... can you tell I'm having a wee bit of trouble processing the thought of her starting highschool?

Oreo loves the beach !  Especially when we bring her blanket.  She likes to hang out and watch everybody and everything.

Hey, look... Oreo to go !

We had a great time!

Fans for Life

Fans for Life radio event for the elderly.

So, I'm a firm believer that you can bloom where you are planted because with Christ ALL things are possible ;-)

Last Friday, I was driving around town handing out Loyaly Discounts ( that'll be a different blog post ;-)  and while driving around I was listening to my favorite radio station JOYFM.  During a commercial they promoted a "Fans for Life" event.

Apparently, the heat has been horrendous for the elderly who don't have family to help them and the means of keeping cool.  So, they were asking for boxed fans to help these people.  When I got back to the office, I emailed mgt if they'd like to donate some fans.  And the next thing I knew, we had a $500.00 budget and 30 boxed fans to pick up from WalMart !!!

Christie, Administrator, and I dropped the fans off at the radio station -- they. were. thrilled !  They took pictures and kept saying what a blessing these fans will be.  I also made flyers "Sunny With A Chance of Heatstroke" that outlined the dangers, prevention, and help with heat exhasustion that will be handed out to each family who gets a fan. 

You never can tell what might happen if you follow the Lord --  He's alot of fun !!

I Won the T-Shirt Contest

Each year, we get a company polo shirt that each staff member wears on Fridays for "Casual Friday".  This year, the providers had a T-Shirt design contest. The challenge was to design a T-Shirt that reflects PrimeCare.  There were 18 enteries and mine won !!

Mgt sent out a company wide email congratulating me, posted my design by the timeclock and gave me a $25 visa giftcard.  Yeah, me !!

The shirts are being made this week.  Everyone will start wearing them this Friday.... fun!!

High Maintenance

I hate to admit this.... but ... well.. I tend to spoil my dogs.  I don't know where it all started.  I spose it was the sweet little face with the big coffee-brown eyes and the way she slicks her ears back when she wants me to play with her ----  never the less, it's ended up here ......

"Alright, now, while I wait for my hair to dry, you can go ahead and do my nails."

Great.  What have I started.

The Expander

When Jordi first got her braces put on they also inserted this top expander contraption thingy.   It came with a key that I would have to insert into this tee tiny hole and 'tighten' it up.  While tightening it, the 'legs' would expand making her top bite wider.

She's had this in her mouth since October 2011 and in three days they are going to take it out.  She is euber excited !!!!!!!!!!!!!  I don't know why ?? ;-))

Happy Sweet 16

Happy Sweet 16!!

Daddy / Daughter dance ... awwwwwwwwwww!!!!!

We were invited to a friend's daughter's Sweet 16th birthday.  How sweet it was !  Lots of food and friends and fun !!

Mommy / Daughter pics !!

Jordan loves it when I sing ....

Nana and Boo :-)

Oreo's Doggles

Oreo loves putting her head out the car window when we go for a ride. But on occassion a bug or a piece of dirt will get into one of her eyes and cause some irritation.

So, we got her some "Doggles" to solve the problem!  Not sure if she likes them but we'll see ...

Our Tenants ... The Finches

Each Spring we put a fern out on the patio.

And each Spring a new family moves in.

Apparantly, we are "the place" for Spring vacation.

I hear the location and price are great.

  

Everything is just right in starting a family ;-)

Church Youth Camp

Each year, our church holds Kids Camp and Youth Camp at some lake close to B'Ham ?? Anywhoo, they always have alot of fun learning who Christ is and how to pelt each other with paint balls.  I mean, can it get any better??  Who says Christians can't have fun ??
