Hooked on Reading!!!











Well a few weeks back I went to the book store and got a couple of new books. The young lady asked if she could help me ( man if she only knew) I said yes, I would like a book that will keep my attention. Boy, be careful what you ask for some times. I have my nose in my new book The Twilight every free minute I have. When she first told me that is was about Vampire's and Werewolf's, well that is one thing that I'm very scared of. As a child that's what my nightmares were about. I laughed and said there was no way I could read these. First of all I live in the country where it is VERY dark and it is bad enough that I'm afraid of the dark ( yes, hard to believe). Oh, she said that are not bad V's the are good. Stupid me I bought the book and had it read in 4 day's all 528 pages. She was right, there are good V's and BAD V's. I have never in my life read that many pages of any thing!!! I had to make a special trip to the book store to buy the next book The New Moon. Had it read in just a few day's also and made another trip Friday night to get the other 2 books, Eclipse and Braking Dawn. Man, what good book's!!! Now Dustin is reading Twilight, and really likes it. He has a hard time reading it at night, he to is a scardy cat like his mom. Well better go I have books to read! Shell

Brett's is now baptized




Last night my step son Brett got baptized! I could tell he was a little nervous, but he did very well. Grandma Judy came from Council Grove, and Aunt Jenny,Matt and Garrett came from Manhattan to be a part of this event. Brett goes to church every Wednesday and we just thought he was going because of his girlfriend. I guess we were wrong. Good job Brett, we are proud of you. Thanks for everyone coming.

4-Wheeling by Fort Riley





Today we went 4-wheeling near Ft Riley. It was on the east side of the high way by the big cannon. We ate breakfast a the M-Donald's place (not my pick) and Ashley is yelling the weenie mobile, the weenie mobile!! Sure enough their it was. We had to stop and take a picture. If you noticed Bob was not in the picture. I cant not repeat what he wanted to call the blog but if you use you imagination I'm sure it would not be hard. We really had a nice time riding the 4-wheelers. We went to a new spot, with the friend we usually go with. We had to make our own trails and ran over lots of little trees and lots of weeds. Ashley had not been able to go with us 4-wheeling before because of work or friends. On our way home we stopped and ate and the ride home was so quite, they were all asleep in the back seat. We must have wore them out. We should take them more to new place's (poor kids). Yes, that is Ashley on 2 wheels trying to run over a tree.
