Over the Weekend!

Malaena-Sloan and Aunt Demetra! Demetra has worked with horses her whole life. She said that if you compared Malaena to a horse, she was a sweet spirited one that would load easy! Also, Malaena performs well for her audience!
Demetra's Dad, Tommy Bell, with Little Bit!
Here's to GREAT friends and GREAT times! These are my buddies from high school with spouses and kids!
This is Brenda Bell...Demetra's Mom! Brenda had her hands full helping raise me with Demetra! What one of us didn't think of, the other did! I love this woman!
OH! MALAE LOVED POSING IN THE BUFF ON HER NEW BLANKIE FROM AUNT DEMETRA! Just a little touch of TEXAS in our house now!


We had an awesome weekend as Demetra, one of my two best friends since I was 6-years-old, came home from Texas! Donnie and I picked Penny up and headed south. We stopped by Mom's and Malaena-Sloan got LOTS of attention! We met the whole gang at a restaurant at Holcomb. We had a very good visit but it went by WAY to quickly! Malaena was passed like a sack of taters! She slept SO GREAT that night....can we do it again next week?!

Yesterday evening, Donnie, Brock, Malae and I headed to Perryville. One of my dear friends passed away, Paul Unverferth! We opened the paper Saturday morning and there was his picture....I couldn't believe it. I met Paul when I was teaching school as he was taking the adult computer class just after he had a diving accident leaving him paralyzed. Paul was only 49, and they believe he passed as a result of a heart attack or a blood clot. He has three beautiful daughters that loved their daddy very much! He was a GREAT man.
