Jordan Has His Batchelors Degree

The first in our family to graduate from college! He's going to go on now for his Master's Degree. We're really proud of him. He's a really nice young man. We went to his house yesterday for the party. Just family was there. We had a good time and Dallas went in the pool with Lindsey. It was so hot yesterday.

Son Denny Finally Had Stone Crushed

Poor guy is in pain right now but the stone won't bother him anymore. I hope he doesn't get another one. He was in such pain.

Memorial Day, Hot and No Air

Happy Memorial Day! The day we remember our soldiers and everyone that died for our country. It's good that we have this day designated but we need to remember them every day. And the families that have to go on without their loved ones.

The temperature is in the 90s here in northern Texas. And that's pretty close to what it is in our house right now. Friday the fan in our air conditioning unit outside decided to go on a holiday. And our repair man is in Utah playing a gig in a band. So we'll have to suffer it out until tomorrow. Tomorrow is Jamie's day off so Denny and I were going to go to the casino. We haven't been there in ages. But our gambling money will go to repair the air conditioner. Can't win, can we?

But we're alive, not dying from the heat so we can't complain. We can always go out in the back and jump in Dallas' pool.

I Added More Pictures of my Rocks

Instead of making new posts, I'm going to add the pictures onto a previous post calle "More Garden Rocks".

Where Does The Time Go?

I can't believe how fast time goes. I thought that I just added to the blog. And the date is May 4th when I last posted? Wow! I hope my life isn't going that fast. Speaking of life. I had minor surgery the other day and I'm still alive. I guess it's natural for someone going into surgery to wonder if they'll still be around after the surgery. I had a benign cyst removed from my urethra. Sounds worse than it really is. But I'm fine.
I feel bad for anyone who has surgery but doesn't come out 'fine'. Anyway, on to better and brighter things.

More 'Garden Rocks'

Randy and Danielle Are Visiting Our Home Ground

What a place to spend a weeks vacation! Michigan? Grand Rapids, at that? Randy wanted to show Danielle where he was born and raised. Of course, he only lived his first 17 years there. After he graduated, he went into the Air Force so he only visited home a few times after that. Randy is the nostalgic one in the family. He went by our old house that Denny and I brought all three of our kids up in. He asked the owner if Danielle could take a picture of him on the front porch. I couldn't believe that there have been hardly any changes to the yard, except that the flowers are all gone! The same mailbox is standing but not straight up like it was when we lived there.

Today they went to Gobles, MI. They took pictures of stores that said 'Gobles' on it. Too cool. When we went to Germany to visit him when he was stationed there, we went to Goble, Germany! They went to Holland beach, all around Wyoming where our house was and visited old friends. And, they had a Wet Buritto! Mmmmm. So good. It's about the only thing I miss in MI. Oh, except for all of our friends. But I can visit them on Facebook. And, Chui's restaurant here in Allen, has their own 'Wet Buritto'. But it isn't called that. It's just a huge buritto.

Here are a few pictures Danielle sent.
