Hurricane Fay has finally helped part of the south out. Most people don't benefit from hurricane rain but here I know everyone is glad to see it. Last summer we had a terrible drought and it seemed we were on our way again this summer. However, it has been raining since yesterday pretty much and I know all the nursery owners are elated!
Tomorrow Mandy, Tammy Young and I leave for Cancun. Please pray for us to have a safe trip and no hurricanes while we are gone. I can't wait to see Mexico. Everyone we talk to says we will love it. We got some good old cookies from Mrs. Paula to take with us in case we miss home too much. Thanks Paula!
I will post pics when we return. Have a great week and weekend!

Wilson County Fair
This was the dog at the entrance of the "pet" section.
This dog jumped in the pool after his toy. He was part of the Ultimate Air Dogs show. It was so fun to watch all the dogs jump in and swim.
Another thing I love at this fair is the pig racing. They come from North Carolina each year to the fair. It is hilarious watching these pigs and other animals race. The winner gets a cheeto!
This is the little piggies running for the gold. lol
The goats racing.
The fun slide.
This is one of the rides that my picture semi came out. My camera takes terrible night pics. Saylor rode the big swings and the little swings along with the Himalaya. It was a modern one. Very cool. She rode the Sizzler and the Wacky Worm and many others. They had the best time. We stayed until about 11 and we still never saw all the fair. You need all day at this one. Saylor is already begging to go back.

Viola Valley Homecoming
Saturday we went to the Viola Homecoming to watch the parade and check things out. Saylor really enjoyed the parade. They actually get to throw candy at theirs and this was something she had never seen before since they won't allow you to throw candy at our Christmas parade. I think this parade was better than the Christmas one too. Later on that day I took Christian and his friend Gavin to the Titans game but of course no pictures. Boys just don't like that sort of stuff. lol

A Fresh Start
Christian is getting so big. He will be in 7th grade and is starting Boyd Christian school this year. We let him decide and this is what he wanted to do. I hope he enjoys it. He will be 13 soon so I know hard times are ahead for me and him both.
My little Saylor will be 8 soon and is in the 2nd grade. She loves school and is so excited about seeing all of her friends again. She has Sadie Newby and she teaches her class with Mrs. Tobbitt's class. Their room was so cool. I loved it and am so happy Saylor will be in this class.
Okay I guess I will hush for now. Are you ready for school to start? Do you feel like it is new beginning too? Surely I am not the only one.
P.S. Saylor has pneumonia...can you believe that? She goes back today for her follow up xray to make sure her antibiotics are working. She has been on meds for a month now.!!
Happy Start of School.
