OVER THE RUSH

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR


Hello to all,

Sorry it has taken me so long.......

Hoping all have had a Merry Christmas and looking forward to this New Year 2018. Well Christmas 2017 rushed right through and our 2018 New Year has already begun.

We had a quiet Christmas with the family and New Year as well. Lot's of fun and laughter. It is always a blessing to listen and watch our children and grandchildren telling their stories and opening gifts however our Christmas is always focused on the real meaning which is the birth of our Savior.

I love the Holidays, but for some it is a sad time. As I have learned with God's help to get through the Holidays after the loss of our son in 2009. There are so many families who struggle and try to understand. I have no words to express an easy method for anyone's grieving, but I can say that thankfully I had a wonderful husband and children and I pray that anyone who has lost a dear loved one that you have much peace and comfort through your days ahead and family to share your time with.

                                             I want to share a few pictures of our family

                                         Here I am helping Brittini decorate her little tree.

                                                                    Chuck and the girls

                    Me, my daughter Karen and 3 granddaughters, Kheri, Kamryn and Hannah

                                                                    SO BLESSED

Thanksgiving

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM OUR HOME TO YOURS. BLESSINGS AS YOU SHARE THIS BEAUTIFUL DAY WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Veterans Day

As we celebrate Memorial Day across the Nation this weekend, Many will take a moment to honor those who have given their lives in service to their county.

Originally known as Decoration Day and dates back to the 1800s remembering those who died in the Civil War.

By the 20th Century it had become a general day of commemoration for all fallen Veterans of all American Wars.










Please take a moment to remember our fallen men and women who have fought and lost their lives for our freedom and remember all the families who lost their loved ones.

I want to thank everyone in my family; my husband Charles, my dad, Ernest, uncles, Ardell and Raymond who all served in the Army. My husband in Germany and my dad and uncles in Korea.

Sunday Blessings

Hope everyone is having wonderful day. The weather has turned out to be beautiful. Just the kind of
day for riding and checking out all the leaves in North Georgia.  some of our most favorite areas are, Dahlonega, Cleveland, and Helen Ga. Lots of Antique shops, food and all kind goodies for the family.

Fall Time in the Smokies Part II

Part II

Beautiful views in Cades Cove

 

The sound of rushing water driving through the mountains

Gatlinburg was so much fun this year with Brittini. She was actually old enough to enjoy the scenery. 

Breakfast a Crockett's was totally amazing. All country cooking's you can imagine. You must try their "King" size Cinnamon Rolls!!

Back to Pigeon Forge to Paula Dean's for lunch was next on our schedule. It too was amazing. Fried chicken and the banana pudding was my favorite! My husband and Paula had  great conversation...lol Her store is filled with beautiful gift's for all.

Fall Time in the Smokeys Part I

Fall Time in the Smokies 

Hello to all of my viewers. Hope you all are enjoying this great Fall Season. I have been very busy lately and just wanted to share some pictures of a trip that we just made to Cades Cove, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg Tennessee.

        While there we managed to make it to a few attractions and to visit Cades Cove. Talk about God's beauty! Amazing mountains and foliage keeps you in continual ahhhhhh. The day we choose was perfect weather and the breeze was wonderful. Our son and 4 year old granddaughter Brittini was along with us and to hear all of the things this child had to say was worth the whole trip. 

Brittini seen a wild turkey for the first time and she gobbled for 20 minutes afterwards. We didn't see a bear or deer this trip, but the one a few months ago we seen a mama bear with two cubs and 2 deer. 

Driving through the water was so much fun.
