Im so excited Theresa finally got one! Yeah, we can keep in touch with all this new modern technology, it ought to be good for something.

Victoria

On July 26th Victoria was Baptized at Church (this is her going backstage with Ms. Karen)
This is all of Victoria's family coming to support her
Here she is saying In the Father, Son & Holy Ghost
Here she is! i just love this picture (I have this one as my background on my computer)

A day at the Fair Continued......

I couldn't finish all the pics on the last one, so I carried it over. Here's Victoria petting a Mule or is it a Jack? I don't know, it sure is BIG though.





Here's Frank after buying a Big Bucket of Popcorn, the kids went crazy, like they hadn't eaten in days! I should have taken a picture of the Mile High Chocolate Cake, it was $6 but it was plenty for all of us! Man, it was Yummy!



Here's the Girls looking at the Doll Houses, I thought it'd be neat to take a picture of them looking through the glass.
















This is a doll that Isabella informed me looked like me, Gee, Thanks, I don't know if that's a compliment our not?




Here's buster, he was so cute & funny to be around, he acted just like a real dog, the guy in the suit must have been part dog! He would come up and put his head under your hand, or he would just lay down on the ground, it was pretty neat.

A Day at the Fair

Well We decided to go to the State Fair on Saturday since all the kids are in school now and Im working during the day. They got to check out the tanks, I like this picture, Frank looks like he's really firing it.
And of course Big Frank is pointing out which one of these he wants, looks like he's making an offer and the Soldier is not happy with it, Lol!
We let each of the kids do the Rock Climbing (they always have such a blast)
Here we are all enjoying our Annual Corn Dogs, I was holding mine so I could grab a quick photo.
We went and saw the Mules & Jacks, they are so Beautiful, and I can't get over how big they are.
Both Frank's really enjoyed them.

Bunco


Well last night I went to play Bunco at my Aunt Becky's house (I love to go, so I can get out of the house and eat dinner at someone elses house). Anyway, while we were inside playing Bunco (which I won 3rd place, I tied with Becky, but I rolled a three & she rolled a two, shew that was close) apparently Mike & maybe even Matt came outside and decided to have an Art class on the back of my van! We opened the garage to go out to the van and there was their Master Piece, did I mention they were watching Bonanza on TV inside? The stick figures were done by my kids. I just thought you'd all get a kick out of it.

As Summer comes to an End

This is the very 1st swim of the summer, but DEFINITELY NOT the last.
I worked in the garden and with our flowers, getting rid of ton's of weeds! This my Beautiful Bee balm, it's gone now.
This is my Wonderful, Beautiful, Big & Goofy Family (we were at the lake, they were going to jump in!
We also had lots & lots of Blackberry's so we made & are still making LOTS of Blackberry pie & cobbler, YUM!


Well it's kinda sad but happy as Summer comes to an end and school's just a week & two day's away. Im looking forward to getting more on a schedule, also I do miss my co-workers (especially Peggy, she's just the Sweetest EVER!).

The kids have enjoyed the summer, we've haven't done alot, we started out at the beginning of June going to Holiday World (I was able to pay for it with what I made working in the Cafeteria), then we went to the Family Reunion at the beginning of July, then this Friday we are going to finally take the Pontoon boat out (thanks that the gas has went down some and hopefully will keep going lower!!) But the rest of the time we have went to the Summer Free Movies, we've made that a regular in the summer, we've swam at Jamie's pool next door (A TON, THANK YOU AUNT JAMIE) We've hung out on the farm with Papa and Mark, Jamie, Mark Lee & Sean. We've had sleep overs and went to friends Birthday parties. We unfortunately DIDN'T get to go visit Amy & her kiddo's or they DIDN'T get to come here, that was TRAGIC!! We miss them Terribly! Thanks to the Gas prices & Frank's job laying people off, so we have had to pinch penny's to make ends meet.

Over the summer I have become an Arbonne consultant, Im sure you have seen my blogs over the past so many months where I have talked about it ALOT, I just feel so strongly about trying to take better care of myself & my family that I want to pass it along to all of you who might be reading this and wondering what you could do to feel better and become aware of your health.
I also was fortunate enough to get a free ticket to go see Beth Moore LIVE! Wow, God knew I needed a good talkin to, who better to do it then Beth, Wow! She's amazing to listen to and hear her encourage us to make sure we learn God's word and keep it in our heart and also, We as Christian's need to not go and pretend to be somebody we're not every weekend at church, that's why so many people think we're fake, we need BE who we SEEM and be humble and ask for God's help. She taught us seven things in Luke 8:11-18
1.Treasure the Wonder
2.Protect your Heart
3.Expect a Test, this one was really good look at it this way -
Testing (it depends who it's from?)
Trials Temptations
(God) (satan)
To make you stand To make you fall
4. Dig the Roots (the word) You need to fully believe that Jesus LOVES me this I
Know
5. Stop the Choke (Anxiety Chokes the word out of us), Life is Hard, But God is
Good
6. Retain the Word (to hold in a vice grip, "to possess, own")
7. Press forth to your 100-fold
You Have to ask Yourself, "How is your seed growing?"

Anyway, that's been the Summer for the Glover Family. Hope you guys have so far had a Great one.
