Worship Team is at it again! Best Worship Team in Mayes County!!!

 Jenny really wasn't there until the end but what the heck, she managed to get her picture taken with Tashauna. 

Roxy and the Squirrel

Roxy is playing with the squirrel and the squirrel is having a great time ;-)  I could not believe what I was seeing.  This squirrel would run up and down and all around this tree and Roxy would chase it around and around and wish she could climb a tree.  

The Dam Jam

We worked the Dam Jam again this year.  It really did rain on our parade but I was in charge of photos, so I was the only one that was soaking wet.  Everyone else was able to stay under the canopy.  

This is our KJRH weatherman, George Flickenger and Jenny

Our Dam Jam Team was pretty awesome this year and we had a blast!

I have some really fun friends.  These two are so cute, Kelsey and Reuben!

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

I was nominated by Valerie McAllister to do the ALS ice bucket challenge.  Let's just say that John had a good time dumping ice water on me.  I was grateful for a nice warm sunny day.

Live Video Announcements

John and I were asked to do a live video announcements for the church.  John said NO, but as the time got closer and Jeremy doesn't take 'no' for an answer, we showed up to do these videos.  It was a lot of fun.  We had a heck of a time getting the lines right and John just had to throw several jokes in there.  He even called me a raving Penecostal... what the heck!!! And to make it worse, they did the bloopers of this video and of course they had to put that in there.  Our church is called YPC, Your Place Church, but John said it stood for Your Penecostal Church!  That was even in the bloopers.  Let's just say that everyone laughed about these announcements all month.  Probably some of the funniest I've ever seen.  I don't like being in front of a camera but I'm glad we did this, it was a lot of fun.

Youth America 2014

There is just something about see thousands of teenagers giving their lives to Jesus.  Every summer Youth America at Church of the Harvest in Oklahoma City invites teenagers from all over the country to join them.  The teens spend 5 days in dorms, which is always a good time, meet new people and spend a whole lot of time with Jesus.  A life changing place.  

The Root Cellar

Sharon wanted her picture in front of the old root cellar.  This place lost its door a long time ago and it will get a few inches of water in it during the spring but its clean and could be used if I ever decided to take up canning. 

4 Generations

My parents and my sister came for a visit this summer so I made sure we got some family pictures.  Jenny wanted the 4 generation photo and I just wanted to take pictures. I had the camera on a tripod and a remote in my hand. 

 Hey, it worked ;-)

My mom, my sister, Sharon, Me, Jenny, Tashauna, Sydney and Cody

4 Generations right here.

My sister and I with our Mom.  I love this photo :) 

Cherokee Heritage Center

We went to the Cherokee Heritage Center in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.  I've been here a few times but my sister hasn't been here since she was very young so I added this outing to our things to do list.  We had a great time.  

Mom, Sharon, Rylan, Jenny and Cody.  

Sharon had a feather so I had to improvise... LOL

Jenny wants to play a little stickball 

New Furniture

Finally, after 25 years I got new furniture.  I have always wanted a sectional so I spent a week searching from town to town until I found the right one.  I like the choice I decided on.  Next I will be getting my wood floors.
