Weekend at the Ranch

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Last Christmas as we exchanged gifts at the Davis Household, Bill and Bernadette presented all the kids with an invitation to a weekend getaway to be held in the spring at Tatanka Ranch. This was the weekend, and what a success it was!

Thanks, Bro!

A year or two ago, the server that hosted our website crashed and we lost all of our blog entries, pictures, etc.  I was just sick about it.  Last time we were in Ft. Worth, I mentioned it to little brother, Josh, and he told me about something called a wayback website; basically, it is […]

Water Update

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Last week our water was so red that it looked like somebody was bleeding every time we ran water.  It had been bad off and on for a while now, but the well guy I contacted wanted $200 for a service call, just to look at the well, so I had put off doing anything […]

Stomach Like a Bowl Full of Jelly

When we were out on our evening walk to the elementary school, a Hummer drove by and honked in greeting.  It startled Kennedy and she said, “When I get scared, my stomach feels all jiggly.”  Me, too, sometimes, K.

Finally!!!

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

I hesitate to say this, but I think our Edmond home will be ready to go on the market by the end of this week.  It’s only six weeks later than we planned.  We finished up all we could do today, and we have a cleaning service and lawn guy coming in later this week.  […]

Home Run!!!

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

T ball is in full swing, with Kennedy practicing with a team named the “Hot Sticks” for the last couple of weeks.  Their first game was Saturday (and second, actually, it was a tournament), and their record now stands at 1-1.  Kennedy played catcher, and she was really funny to watch.  The first game, she […]

April Fools!!!

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

When I picked K. up from school, she ducked her head and said, “I got on red today.”  I said, “YOU DID?”  (This would be only the second time all year.)  She grinned really big and said, “April Fools!!!”  She continued to do this throughout the evening, telling us everything from, “You have a hole […]
