Saturday was car show day

Saturday was a great day to go to a Car Show. We went to a small town nearby called Brevard for a few hours. It was lots of fun. Looked at the cars and then I checked out the shops while Papaw talked to people about his car. It was very hot! Around 85. Then we headed back home and on the way back stopped to look at some campers. Then we ate at the J&S cafeteria which was good too. All in all a good day. If I had remembered my camera I would have had some cute pics to post. Tomorrow is Labor Day and we have the big Labor Day Parade so I should get some good pics there. We're doing a cookout after and maybe the grandkids will take in a few rides. Until tomorrow-----------------Grandma

Rocky the guard dog

Rocky likes to be close and protect Kaitlyn. Couldn't resist taking this pic. Isn't it cute. They are both napping. Except Rocky opened his eyes to see what I was doing. Pretty funny.

Fun Day at Grandma and Papaw's

A fun day at Nana and Papaw's

It was a fun night and a fun day today spending time with Kaitlyn. 3 must be the magic number. She is sooo cute and fun to be with. Into Barbie's and dolls and she rode her new bike today we got at a yard sale for almost nothing. We had lunch at McDonald's because the weather has been so bad with all the rain (Praise the Lord for it) We wanted to go to the park but too wet. Just hung out at the house and played. Rocky was glad she was there. Hope I can get the pics on the site right. Ha Ha.

The Old Farmhouse in Maine

Here is the old farmhouse. Isn't it pretty! Amy's flowers do so well. The old barn is getting a facelift so it is looking good too.

Here are more Mater Fest pics for 2008

Mater Fest in Canton 2008

My grandchildren in N.C. love to go to the Mater Fest each year. We have a wonderful day and lots of fun. Papaw has an old car and he does the car show!

My grandchildren in Maine!

I have 7 grandchildren, 4 in Maine and 3 in N.C. Here is a beautiful pic of the ones in Maine. They are Elisabeth who will soon be 16, Benjamin, 13, Cherith who is 10 and Abigail who is 8. Elisabeth is teaching me as I go how to do a blog. And it will definately look better with lots of pictures on it. Check back for more updates as I have time to sit at the computer. Until another time. Bye!

Pigeon Forge

We had a wonderful couple of days in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. Of course I forgot my camera and we always make a picture at the Gazebo at the Apple Barn. How forgetful I am. Oh well. I am sure we will go back someday. Seemed funny to be there just Papaw and me but we did enjoy ourselves a lot. We ate some wonderful food and Papaw went to the Bass Pro Shop and lots of tool places so I didn't torment him too much with all my shopping. We made it home about 6:30 today and it is good to be back home. I have been reading a new book since I got back home. I can read these books in a day and they are so good. They are about the Amish and they are a new author I hadn't read. I have read so much my eyes are crossed. Ha Ha. Well that's all that is new at Grandma and Papaw's. I must ask my granddaughter how to post a pic on this blog. She makes it look so easy. More talk later---------Grandma

A nice Friday

Well it has been a great day at home after working the last 3 days. And don't you know it they called me this afternoon to come in. I had to turn them down because I was making pickles and going to get my hair cut and then Micah and Kaitlyn were coming later today. I also had a house that needed some attention today to. So I plan to take it nice and easy this evening. Hey the big Mater Fest is in Canton this weekend. It will be a little home town fun to take the grandkids to. Well I'll sign off. That's all I know. Kind of boring isn't it!! Maybe I can get some pics on here so you can see what's going on. Until later---------------Grandma
