Satan Goes To Church

Just minutes before the church services started the towns people were sitting in their pews and talking. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate. Soon, everyone had exited the church except for one elderly gentleman whosat calmly in his pew without moving, seemingly oblivious to the fact that God' s ultimate enemy was in his presence.

So Satan walked up to the old man and said, "Don't you know who I am?

The man replied, "Yep, sure do."

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Satan asked.

"Nope, sure ain't," said the man.

"Don't you realize I can kill you with a word?" asked Satan.

"Don't doubt it for a minute," returned the old man, in an even tone.

"Did you know that I could cause you profound, horrifying, physical agony forever?"

"Yep," was the calm reply."

And you're still not afraid?" asked Satan.

"Nope."

More than a little perturbed, Satan asked,

"Well, why aren't you afraid of me?

"The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for 45 years."

I will continue to work on trying to get a Free subscription services so all of you can get an email when I update my blog. (Does anyone know of one?

Tyla's Birthday

Its that time of year again when everything is non stop. Summer time, for my family, is the busiest. Around Tyla's Birthday seems to be more so than most times. And as everyone knows, Tyla just had her 10th birthday.

On a side note: I know this really means nothing to most but I found it neet: As everyone knows yesterday was 07/07/07, Tylas was born on 07/07/97. Its kind of cool, I think, for Tyla since something like that won't happen again for 100 years.

Anyway, we celebrated here Birthday last weekend. Tyla wanted a Ft Stockton Panther theme this year, with a Panther cake, blue and white streamers and paw prints everywhere. Funny thing was that it ended up being a Texas Longhorn party. Seems like Tyla ended up getting a little bit of everything with a Long Horn on it. Including a purse! (Thanks Mom, Dad and Rebecca) That just really got her hyped up and decided to paint her room, with orange Longhorns. Came home the other day to find little Longhorn outlines all along the east wall of her room.

Tyla will be going to Odessa today to spend a week with her Aunt Leslie, and as one final birthday gift, (almost regrettably) we desided to finish her room for her. Thats alot of work since she has got so much stuff. O'well, the things you do for your kids!!!

I am going to post 2 or three more times today so I can add a few more pictures, so keep reading.......

Forth of July

To kick off the city's Forth of July activities, Tyla and some of the other girls in Girl Scout Troop

# 102, presented the US and Texas flags to everyone participating in the festivities. She really enjoyed doing this but she says that it was hard for her to do. She said that the flag war really heavy. The girls held the flag throughout the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. I am very proud of her to say the least.

There did not seem to be much there this year so we did not stay very long. There was a few vendors there with some neat stuff but not much I would have wanted to come home with. Tyla decided to go play with one of her friends and Shelly, Brenton and I went and ate lunch. For the first time in a long time, I got to take a nap. Brenton and I took a 2 hour nap in my recliner later that afternoon. It was great!

Later that night we went off to the park for the annual fireworks show. This years fire works seemed to be better than I've seen before. Believe it was well worth fighting traffic for. Brenton was not really amused with it as much as I thought he would be. He did not fuss or fight. All he really wanted to do was sleep.

Brenton, The Puppy?

He may not be but he really likes puppy toys!

We normally have toys scattered all over the house but when they are put up Brenton's toys go in a basket beside the love seat and (our Boxer) Lola's toys (the ones she never plays with) goes in a bucket next to the stereo speaker. Brenton's first reaction when entering the living room is to head for Lola's toy bucket. He dumps it to find his favorite chew toy... a squeaky brush. He will crawl all around the house with this thing in his mouth. We are not sure why other than it happens to be the right size to fit in his mouth and it may be soothing his teeth? Still funny, besides.

Speaking of teeth, he now has his 2 bottom middle teeth, the left top middle in and the right one trying to come through. This teething bit is for the birds. When Tyla started teething, she got her first tooth and it was smooth sailing there on out. NOT with Brenton. He has fevers and is cranky a lot more with each one. They won't let him go to day care if he has a fever and he is the most cranky at night during all of this. Really can't wait for him to get out of this stage! I know Shelly will too. She is now trying to ween him since Brenton has bitten her one to many times. I think its time for him to get off the tit anyway. The little turd.... when its time "to eat" and I am in the room, Shelly will get the both of them ready and it never fails, he will look up at me, grin really big than go to town. (uggg so unfair.... LOL)
