Vacation Pictures

We went to Americus, GA for vacation. Light House Baptist Church has a Campmeeting every years and we were honored to be in the meeting with them.



We caught Ashlyn off gaurd playing in Alli's room


Here's Alli Dent. She was playing with something I'm sure.






























Here is a group of Great Singers.
Left to right:
Clint Kerns, Donna Kerns, Lance Carpenter, Labreeska Atkinson, Sam Atkinson, and Teresa (?) all singing at the Camp Meeting.















One of my all time Hero's of the Faith.
Lance Carpenter has been a hero of mine since 1990 or 1991. I fell in Love with his Spirit. He's so humble. He is a talented song writer, singer, and musician. He wrote a song a few years back called "I have not forgotten" "The Inspirations" sing it now. It went #1 on the Southern Gospel charts in March. I hope I never lose this picture, I also hope and pray that Ashlyn will have the honor and opportunity to get to know Bro. Lance.

Finally!! Some pictures!


This was Monday Night. We ate Grilled Chicken and Ashlyn ate Mac & Chesse and English Peas

I had to give her a bad after she ate. If you look close you can see the soap suds on her mouth. She likes to stick her face in the suds.

A few weeks ago she finally climed into the shower. Lori caught her in the act.

She gave it up here. Her Mamaw T. bought her a "Dora" couch and she loves it. She doesn't like for daddy to lay on it though.

Here we are at the park in Knoxville. Lori had a meeting with the ladies at church so I took Ashlyn on a date. We (I) had a good time.

It's been a while

It’s been some time since I posted last.

Ashlyn is growing like a weed. She’s now almost 14 months old. She’s been walking since February, she’s say a few words like mom, dad, dog, me, dia(Lydia), eah(Leah), and nana (Tonya) She said Papaw yesterday (so her papaw says) and she got 8 teeth now and working on 9 & 10. Lori is doing great, still as beautiful as ever, if not more. We’ve just come back from Vacation in Americus, Ga and had a great time there. We got to spend a lot of time together which at home is very hard to do.

One thing that is evident about Ashlyn, she’s like me, she loves to aggravate. She picks on me all the time. I’ll ask her to come to me and she’ll walk or run all the way to me and turn to someone else.  God really has blessed us with Ashlyn, we have tried to imagine or remember our lives without her, and we just CAN’T do it.

I’ll try not to stay gone for so long. See Ya

 

Sincerely,
