You say Violin....I say Fiddle

Back in Sept. Richland, MS. where my middle boy and his family live had Richland in the park Day, it was alot of fun. Games, lawn mower races, craft & food vendors and a live music show. My little Rissa, who by the way isn't so little any more, she just turned 11. Where has the time gone...anyway I digress, plays in the String (all violin) band.
Here are some pictures I took of their performance...she is growing into a beautiful little lady.

We will be going back to the Dr tomorrow for Charles to have staples removed and find out what the biopsy showed. Please say a small pray that it will be benign. 
Hope to find time to visit all this week end.

It's been awhile and my how things change

I have planned on making a post earlier, but it seems Blogger has changed and it has taking awhile to figure it out. Of course it doesn't support my browser anymore so had to change to Google Chrome...
I know it has been awhile since I've posted and so much has happen in my life and I'm sure in your's too.
Keifer finally returned to work in June and is doing quite well. He will be headed to Pharmacy School at Ole Miss in Aug.
Charles and I celebrated 50 yrs of Marriage on Aug 8, 2011. Our Children honored our wish and we had just a small family get together.
 Charles & I with our 50 cake my sweet Mindy made
 My 4 reasons for living, my 3 sons and their Daddy
My 3 sons Ronnie, Lance and Chuck.
Charles had a bad spell with his stomach 3 weeks ago and I had to take him to the Emergency room, turns out it was his pancreas, we were so blessed, because when they did the CT on his stomach they found a large tumor on his right kidney, He had to have his kidney removed because there was no way to remove the tumor and make sure they got all of the growth. I believe God had his hand in finding the tumor because Dr could find no reason for him to have pancreaitis. I had an appointment with Dr Harold Blalock for a bladder scope the very day that his tumor was found, but of course I had  cancelled  it because he was in hospital. After we were informed of the tumor Dr Blalock's nurse called to reschedule my appointment and when I explained about Charles she set him up with an appointment with me the next Wed. 1 week later he was in hospital having kidney removed,  everything just fell into place boom, boom boom, Dr Blalock is the best kidney surgeon in the South. Again God had his hand in it, because we were so lucky to get him, he usually takes most of the months of Oct, Nov & Dec off to go deer hunting and is extremely hard to get. Charles has been home for 3 days and is having a hard time, hurting..to be expected and sick to his stomach. We go back for check up and have staples removed Fri and also find out about the pathology report. Please keep him in your prayers that it is benign.
We have a new family member and she is spoiled rotten already, she is an 8 mo old Rat Terrier, we got Sassy when she was 5 weeks old and Charles and I both fell in love..lol..
 She is a little beggar when it comes to food.
. I hope to be able to start blogging again and checking on my friends. May God Bless you and your day.
