When I clean house Spencer is always following me and watching what I'm doing. I never really gave much thought to it, but there are times he would pick up the dust cloth, the window spray, the toliet brush and do a couple of swipes with the vacuum. On this day he took the vacuum from me and proceeded to sweep our kitchen floor. I'm not talking random swipes, I am talking working from the outside in, in the corner and all over. I 'bout dropped out! He amazes me the things he knows even if he can't speak. He picks up on things so quickly and understand basically everything we tell him. Sometimes though it is his choice as to whether he does it or not! These pics speak volume on parents being role models. If they watch us around the house and pick up what we do, can you imagine the things they pick up we don't want them to? Just food for thought! Enjoy the slide show!

July 28, 2008
Spencer and I went to Hendersville for the day to see Syd, Tammie & Grams....Samantha had volleyball camp. We had a great visit and I took some really good shots of her and a great one of Spencer loving on her! Spencer isn't really quite sure what to think of her, but he loves her you can see that! Thurs we are heading to WV for our final trip before school starts Aug 13. I'm ready for a routing again, but will miss my lazy days of summer, lay around till 10 or so in pjs, swimming in the pool, no schedule, but then again a schedule is nice at least for me and Spencer. While in WV I'll be attending my 30th, yes I said 30th high school class reunion! I am so excited to see everyone. We have had a 5-10-15-20-25 and now a 30th. I've been at them all and it is so cool that so many of us attend and catch up with each other! Brings a little youth back and a whole lot of memories. I'll post when I return!

Syndey Lauryn 7-15-08
Today Tammie Rae, my neice brought a beautiful baby girl into the world. 5lbs 8 oz, 18 inches long. She came about 3 weeks early by emergency c-section, but all is fine with mom and baby! Here are some pics and as you can tell big sister adores her! Wait till she starts bugging her then we'll see! Spencer was not excited going to the hospital to see them....guess it brought back bad memories! He'll see her this afternoon outside the hospital so I know he'll want to kiss and love on her!

Summer Vacation 2008
Since we did a big vacation last summer to the beach, this summer we decided to do a camping adventure in WV with my family. We arrived on Saturday June 28 and did Wesley's birthday party. He had a WV theme and we all wore our WV shirts, hats, etc. Then on Sunday we headed to "Spencer Campground". This is "on the farm" about 1 1/2 miles from my parents. My dad has cleared out this area and set up his camper and put a tin roof over it and it's really neat. Away from the road and in the woods, but yet close enough so that we could go to mom's and shower and you know the bathroom thing!! At first we thought we'd do the river and rough it, but with Spencer's routine and bathroom habits, plus mine!!! we decided against it. I'm glad we did because it freakin' rained cats and dogs Sunday night, Monday, Monday night, Tuesday and Tuesday night. Wed was nice and Thurs was semi nice and it rained again on the 4th! We got soaked the first night as we slept in a tent and the kids and Mammaw slept in the camper. The next night, just me and mike stayed.....that was very relaxing! We packed up camp on Thurs and stayed at my parents the remainder of the week. On the fourth we went to S'ville for fireworks, but it rained and on Sat the 5th we had our annual Spencer reunion. Alot of family showed up and it is always nice to catch up with those I only see once a year! Great time. Sunday we headed home and the first thing we did was get in our pool. The water was 82 degrees! You see in WV, my brother's pool never gets over 70-72 degrees all summer and it was COLD!!! No swimming there, but here we've been in everyday since getting back. It was nice but being home is good! Hope you enjoy the pics!
