The Rocking Horse

Today I'm comparing a picture of me riding my rocking horse with one of Nathanael riding it . The old thing had a different paint job since the one of me was taken and it is in bad need of another one in the picture of Nathanael.

Like Mother Like Son or "Say Cheese"

When I ran across this picture of me as a preschooler it reminded me of the picture of Adam around the same age. Adam hated having his picture taken when he was little, guess I did too.

Mountains

For lack of any other idea on what to post today here is a picture I took in Colorado this past Sept. Have I ever mentioned that I LOVE the mountains?

Operation Chrismas Child

Yesterday Danny and I along with Geneva went to the radio station in Springfield where we volunteered to box shoe boxes for Samaritan's Purse-Operation Christmas Child. www.samaritanspurse.org Geneva and I did this last year and enjoyed it so much we did it again this year.

Happy Birthday Nathanael

26 years ago today I had my first baby boy! Happy Birthday, Nathanael.

A Picture of Wild Turkeys

These are some wild turkeys out in a field that we saw while driving by. I just happened to have my camera, so I shot them. "Run turkeys run".

The Panel Truck

Dad and the GMC panel truck.

I have fond memories of this old truck. Dad had his welder in the back of this truck so he could take it to the repairs that the farmers needed on their machinery or whatever. Dad also pulled a trailer with it to haul big machinery to his shop. Sometimes we kids would ride with him. There were no seats but the drivers seat so we all would have to stand up holding on to a bar above our heads or there was room for one on the welder, but you still had to hang on to something or you would fall off and it wasn't too comfortable on ones behind. The old truck had been a fish delivery truck in it's previous life. It was a faded old green when dad got it. We loved to play with the little bell that went "ding dong" by stepping on a button on the floor. One day the truck became another color. Dad and Ronnie had painted it this bright orange with a paint sprayer.

Oh how I'd love to go for a bumpy ride in that old truck today.

Maternal Great Grandparents

Another old picture today. This is my maternal great grandparents Joshua and Mary Jane-Davis Showalter and Mary Jane's brother ?, (standing).

Flo

Here is Danny's mom, Flo. It was a year ago today she passed away.

Waiting

I came across this old picture yesterday. It was taken 26 years ago yesterday. I was one week overdue with Nathanael and it was one more week until he was born.

Birthday's

Today is Dad's birthday. He would have been 80. The first picture is him as a boy. He grew up on a farm. The second one I put together of him and his garage. He owned and ran Huey's Garage for over 4o years.

Today is also my friend, Vicky's birthday. We became best friends starting back in 1st and 2nd grades. I was going to post her 1st grade school picture here today but I can't find it. I know I have it somewhere, I have kept it all these years.

Great Grandparent and The Desk Chair

This is an old picture of my great grandparents, Samuel and Mary-Brown Huey. The chair he is sitting in is still in the family, though it is in need of some repairs.

Bouquet

Guess who caught the bouquet!

Youth Group Buddys

Kurt, Melissa, Tiffany, Alisha and Michael

These kids were in Youth group together and formed a close bond. The first picture was taken around 2000 or 2001. The new one was taken at Tiffany's wedding Saturday. It was Melissa's idea to pose for the new one knowing everyone was at the church at the same time and probably for the last time.

All Dressed Up

Here is Danny, Melissa and I after the wedding.
