Baylor Deselem

Congratulations to Baylor Deselem, my nephew! His heifer won 1st place at the Clark County Fair today. The funny part is then it went wild and stomped on Baylor's foot! OUCH!

Below is a picture of the cutie-putootie Baylor!

Purple Martins

We went to see the purple martins come to Bombing Range Island last night. Is was AMAZING to see that many birds at one time. They estimate that there are 700,000 birds that come to the island at night. We had purple martinis to go with the purple martin tour, too! That was good, too!

Ohio Trip

We got back from Ohio today. We were there for my nephew, Ethan's, graduation and to meet our new great niece and twin great nephews. It was awesome to hold so many new babies in one day! They are (from left to right) Fin, Alyssa and Graham.

Ethan not only graduated from high school, but he made it to State Track meet finals and played football in Hawaii for a couple of weeks. He's going to Wooster College on a partial football scholarship. We are very proud of him! Not only is he talented, but handsome, too! One of the pictures on the hometown paper website is below. I swear he paid the photographer to follow him at the track meets!

Magnolia Monogramming

Here are travel drink glasses I sell for $15 - which includes a monogram of 1 or 3 initials.

4th of July

What a 4th of July! We hung out at the pool most of the day. Then went to 5:05 church service. Afterwards, we went to the park to here Coastal Breeze play. We had a great group of friends from Living Springs Lutheran Church join us: Retha Murray, Kathy and Ed Brennan, Anthony and Krista Gutteriz, Wendy McKenzie and then the kids, Audrey, Evan, Marisa, Mitchell, and Meredith! Great time!!

We came home and put off fireworks. Evan was CRAZY!! But it was fun.
