When Mama died in December 2020, my 3 siblings and I made a pact to get together every year, to keep our family ties strong.

Yes, I'm still alive and kicking! This year has been crazy-busy (a good thing!) and I've let my blogging fall by the wayside. My last post was 8 months ago...wow, time sure does fly when you're having fun!

Our sweet granddaughter Ellie just celebrated her 9th birthday.

Our 8th grader Kaden (#31) finished up his middle school basketball career in fantastic style, winning the Henry County championship for the second year in a row.

On Sunday, December 10, 2023, our 9 1/2-year-old grandson Abram made the most important decision of his life.

Before we left the city comforts of Kuching, Malaysia for the jungle, we visited a couple of nearby wildlife centers.

In September, Kim and I went on a trip that we've dreamed about all of our lives.

Autumn is my favorite season, and I cannot let it slip away without capturing a few glorious fall images...

Fall is more fun when there are grandkids to share it with!

Volleyball is one of my favorite sports and I'm so glad that some of my grandkids are learning how to play.
