Williams Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving at the Williams was another laid back, enjoyable event! Great food, great family and friends! Some tales of our childhood with lots of laughs!!! I really enjoy my nieces & nephews. They are all special to me. Each one being unique in their own way! Paul & Lynn, & family made the long trip back to Georgia. Kevin & Buffy, & girls made the trip from Valdosta. Winston and I, & family made the short drive from Morven!! David & Missy, & family will come Christmas. We missed them, but look forward to December! Two of our Bridges niece's came with us to the Williams. Now, they are pretty girls and I must apologize to my nephews for not giving them the heads up, so they could take showers and get more handsome! No kidding, we are laid back!!! Lynn & I did get a kick out of the quick showers and hair combing that wet on rather quickly!!! Next time I will give the heads up guys!!! Sorry! Now the younger ones had lots of fun playing outside! I had to take a picture of a dead frog for Macie! She loves nature! The barn has so many childhood memories for all our family! We had horses, chickens, a deer, a goat, & I am sure I am leaving something out! Decided to take a picture, I'm sure it will be gone one day! Also you will see a oak tree on the slide show. A tire swing has been on the big tree since we were kids. All kids love an old tire swing! Just ask my nieces & nephews!!!

Bridges Thanksgiving 2007

Once again we gathered for a delicious Thanksgiving feast at Emmett, Martha's & Jen's. Todd & Kelly's family, Winston and Jill's family, & Great G-Ma were able to come together & enjoy another one of Martha's wonderful meals! The food was great & we so enjoyed the time we got to spend with Todd, Kelly & their beautiful girls! We know it takes a big effort to travel such a great distance, but we appreciate it & enjoyed them! Christina & Mary Kate came over & spent the night with us. We had many laughs and got to talk & learn about their lives and interest during this time! Jerry & Sarah came down that night, he had a class reunion, and I know Martha was so excited to visit with them as well! A Great Holiday for family!

GCS VS CCA 11/16/2007

Tonight we played CCA and we won!!! We should have stomped them, but missed many-many shots!!! Samantha Sloan shot well, 18 pts. Cayla chipped in 11 pts, 9 rebounds, a bunch of assists!!! She played well over all, hustle, rebounding! They are not in shape yet due to softball, but working on it! These girls were so happy they won!! I was so proud of her unselfish play. Too many times she was 3 feet from the basket & passed the ball. Now, I want that...but she is a good shooter & needs to contribute on that end as well!! I am proudest of her encouragement & kindness to her team mates. Several of the younger parents have approached me &complimented her on this! As a younger player,on a older team, it is hard to feel apart and accepted! Go Cayla...we are proud of you & are so glad you are happy! 110% always!

We went to town today. You needed some diapers that are all white. We think the dye in the others may be breaking you out. You have also had some food allergies the past week. I also needed to get some groceries and a new kitchen sink. As we were riding in the car today, I handed you a fry, you said, tanks. I said, your welcome....then you said...I welcome! It was too cute!!! You also told the lady at Sam's tanks, every time she put our items in the buggy! Then we went to see G-ma Bridges. Martha & I took Grandma Wisenbaker her digital photo frame. She really liked it. I had put some old pictures on it as well, some of Grandpa Gus, she just started crying when she saw him! She is just in a bad way and not herself by night time. She did make me laugh several times, I just could not help it! She has never been foolish in any way! So you know it is not her, but she is funny! I was blessed by seeing her but feel so bad for her. I use to want to live to be 100! Well, I know better than that now. If you can't have a quality life it is better to be able to go to a better place! We just need to pray for her & her girls. Pray for mercy, patience & understanding!

Today was a beautiful day so we went out side for a while. We let Sidney go out with us! Pa Pa saw us so he stopped to play, too! We have a rope on the play set and you started pulling on it. Well, Sidney decided to get the bottom of the rope & pull too! You told her, it's mine! Of course Sid could care less, she just kept pulling. You came & told Pa Pa, get it! You wanted him to get the rope from Sid. He told you to pull on & get it back, not to let the dog win! You would go back, pick it up again, Sid had the bottom, & you would pull her around a little! It was so cute & funny!! Pa Pa went back to work and we played some more. You also learned to climb up the ladder today!

This afternoon we went to take pictures of you & your Mom. For some reason you just give us a fit when it comes to taking picture with her!!! The more she tries to get you to do, the more you act up!!! Any way, we did get some great pictures!!! See slide show!

11/12/2007Last 1st High School Game

Tonight Cayla played her last 1st HS BB Game. It brought tears to my eyes! They did not win, but looked like they were having a great time. They scored over 40 points. Cayla had 2 fouls in the 1st quarter...so guess where she sat!!! She is playing a post on defense! She is running the point on offense. I will add a few pictures! It was a fun night! Cayla & Samantha Sloan are Captains of the team.
