Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving my family went to my grandparent's house. As usual, we had lots of good food. Below are some pictures of my niece, Miclaya and my cousin's little boy, Caleb. (I have two cousins with sons named Caleb.) They had the best time playing together.


Below is me with Caleb.
After lunch some of us took a walk to a park.
Below is my grandmother, MommaGirl. (I grew up calling her MommaBerle, but when one of my cousin's little girl started talking she would say "MommaGirl". Then when Miclaya started talking, she would say the same thing. So now it is MommaGirl!)
Here is Caleb taking a break before sliding down the slide.

This is my sister, Carol Leigh. I thought this picture turned out really good.

Here is another one of Carol Leigh. She is a big kid!


Here is MommaGirl on the merry-go-round.
The big kid again! Needless to say, we had a good time at the park!
Miclaya on the merry-go-round.

And of course, Caleb on the merry-go-round.
After we walked back to the house everyone was very tired. Especially Miclaya and Caleb.
This is Caleb about to fall asleep.

Tired or not, Miclaya and Caleb still played some more.

We all enjoyed the great food and the time we got to spend together.

Discovery Toys!

My sister called me today to let me know that her website is up and running. She has decided to start selling Discovery Toys. They are educational toys. Here is a link to her website http://www.discoverytoyslink.com/esuite/home/amyjones. By what I understand these toys are great for children with autism. Anyway, check out the website and see what you think.

Rapture House

My church here in NC does this thing called the Rapture House every year. It is like a play that you walk from scene to scene. Anyway, since I haven't had anything to do since I got back here, I have been helping set up for it.
Tonight was kind of a dress rehearsal. Between groups going through we were able to catch up with our old youth pastor and his family. Below is a picture of Mrs. Annette, Anna, and Hailey in the Heaven scene. (These pictures were taken with my cell phone so the color is not all that good.)


Below is Matt (Jesus), Hailey, Anna, and Madison.

Here is another one with Matt (Jesus), Hailey, and Madison.

Every year everyone puts a lot of work into the Rapture House and every year we have a good time putting it on. Below is the dates and times. Also, http://www.garnerfwb.org/ is the church website with more information.

Please pray for everyone involved and everyone that will be attending this year.
