3rd week and counting

Tennessee Championship BBQ was held this weekend literally in our backyard. Phil volunteered to help (got a free T-shirt) it is a annual fundraiser for Alzheimer's, (Phil's dad and my mom). You paid $10 to get in, $5 for 5 ribs, and $5 a beer. Why people come to this I don't know. The bbq cookoff food went to the hospitality tent and the volunteers got to eat all they wanted. So Phil had a great 2 days. You can see a couple of the BIG cookers. There were 70-80 teams represented, a team from Florida was camped next to us.



Ivy left for Y camp in Tulsa, Ok yesterday. This is her second year there. She was doing a real good job for her softball team before leaving. Got 3 hits 4-5 RBIs and a double. Way to go Miss Ivy.

Audrey's coach took her to Emporia to watch older girls tournament play so she could learn more but the entire tournament was a rain out. Her coaches like her and thinks she is interested in learning more about the game not there just for the social side (boy does she have them snowed).

Asa went to Boy Scout camp with his dad last weekend up around Abilene. He was the rock climbing champ. Asa his dad and another father and son were walking and the other dad was telling jokes. So Asa said he had a joke. And he told the joke that Grandpa tells about the Panda going into the bar and Laramie said he did a great job. The funny thing is - Laramie was just getting ready to tell it too.
Becki was in the kitchen and Cambree said "mom come here" "Mom come here" So Becki went to her and said "what Cambree" Cambree said "mom I lost my know how" Becki said "you lost what"? Cambree said "I lost my know how- I don't know how to do this". Don't you just love those little ones and the funny things they say!!!!

This one will get ya: Brennan asked his mom if he would ever be normal. Becki said Brennan this is 'your normal'. You think I will always be diabetic mom. Yes Brennan I think you will be. You mean you don't think they will ever find a cure, Brennan said. Becki answered him, Yes but not real soon. OK I was just wondering he said and Becki finished giving him his 4th insulin shot for the day. Pray for a cure soon. Here Brennan this is for you.


This is a banana peanut butter sandwich. I eat this alot and it is good. Thought you might like it too. The other day I had my apple with peanut butter like you do so you can try this now. Hope you like it.
We had a busy week at work. Our computer froze up on me just as I was finishing up the days work so TK had to overnight us a new one and we had to install it. We tested 1588 people last week and were only schedules to test 1100. Fed Ex says we are almost 1/2 finished with the night people and we have only been here 3 weeks. What will we do for the next 6 weeks ?? The people stand outside our test unit for 2 hours waiting to be tested. They are suppose to be putting a stop to that this week so we will see what happens.
Hope you fathers had a great Father's Day. I called my dad. Wish I could have been there to give him a hug. I love you dad.
