We celebrated Memorial Day by taking the opportunity to enjoy all the flags at a local cemetary. They had a nice tribute to our fallen heros.

Autumn's Graduation 05/23/12
By Susie Devries
Autumn has graduated kindergarten and is thrilled about going to first grade. She, and all her class mates are disappointed that Mrs. Hawkins is staying in Kindergarten. The ceremony was held at First Baptist Church in Sherwood and the church was nearly full. Along with her 'diploma' Autumn also got a certificate for perfect attendance for the last 9 weeks of school. We are all proud of her.

Bill's New Digs 05/21/12
By Susie Devries
As many of you already know, Bill was laid off February 6. I knew the world as I knew it was ending right then and there. What about our house? What about my truck? What about our responsibilities? Good news is he was hired and began a new job May 14. He is working for Fed-Ex, at corporate headquarters, auditing airplane parts manuals. He will be living in Memphis TN. and commuting on weekends. Sometimes I will be in Memphis, sometimes he will be in Little Rock. He is in a nice area of town, called Kirby Station, about 20 minutes from his work. 15 min in good traffic, 35 in bad. I've taken a few basic pics. Hope you enjoy them. A little drab for me, but hey---he's a guy, he doesn't care about color!!! LOL

Doug & Joni's Northwest Adventure 05/06-12/12
By John Schmit
What an awesome vacation week we had. Doug and Joni came and spent six days with us. Mom joined us on many of the adventures as we played tourist. There was so much to show them. We went all over the Seattle area. They brought their passports and we even took a trip to Stanley Park in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Allen came over to run the barbecue and we had a special visit with Wendy that night! Good food, good wine (and beer) and good company added up to a wonderful week.

Strawberry Pickin' 05/07/12
By Susie Devries
Over the weekend we took Autumn to the 'Strawberry Farm'. We did not go until later in the day and it was hot. Autumn had a great time. She loved picking strawberries. She was not so excited about the cleaning and cutting up. I think she ate as many as we picked!!! After the 'big pick' we climbed into my truck, cranked up the a/c, downed some cool water and then went to Western Sizzler for lunch. It was a great day.
