Get Fired up Newton!!

Friday Night Football has begun!!
High School football is so much fun and WE LOVE IT!!!
My children have been at Newton for years and Justin graduated from there and the twins will graduate in May of 2011!!
GO RAMS!!!
This is the Newton County Stadium!!! We have 3 schools that play here but Newton was the very first high school for the County and has been around for many many years!

We had been chosen to be the game of the week for the local television station here in Atlanta (with lots of voting) We were on the HIGH 5 SPORTS!!!
Bradley and Robert wanted to show there school spirit and I painted them up!! So they could be on the news we put this on their back!!


And this was them from the front!! Bradley is the one painted white!
They succeeded and was on television!!! They love their school and love to show their spirit!!

So that was my Friday!!! Loads of fun and more to come today!!

WE ARE GOING TO THE GEORGIA GAME!!!!
GO DAWGS!!
I hope that you all have a great day!!!
Keep praying for the Rodgers family!! They welcomed their son home yesterday and He will arrive here in Georgia one day next week!!! RIP LCpl Rodgers!!
I also got word yesterday that they are asking for volunteers of 1/6 to re-deploy to afghanistan...NOTE...Justin is not going to volunteer!!! But please pray for this because 2/6 has lost so many guys!! I just hope that they don't make it mandatory!!!
Keep Praying...IT WORKS!!

What more can be said!!

Today the family of LCpl Christopher "Blake" Rodgers will be at Dover Air force Base to welcome their son back to US soil!!! I still just can't imagine how they are handling this!! I was just a face book buddy and I am a basket case!! Please Keep this family in your prayers as they travel back to Griffin Georgia with their precious son!!! May God give them strength that they need to with stand what lies ahead of them!!!



My son will arrive home today as well for his labor day 96! As he is due to be home for a few days I sit and think about that this could have very easily been my son!! I know that when I get my hands on him once again I will squeeze him and love him and let him know that he is my whole world and that I love him so much!! I am so thankful for him and that God allowed me to keep my son!!!



After all of this, I am even more thankful for family and that everyone is happy and healthy!! I continue to pray for Julie as her son Justin is still over in that big sandbox! Please God, just keep him safe and bring him home to his family!! PLEASE!!!
And as my dear friend Lynda will prepare for her son Billy to go over in the near future I will once again be begging God to watch over him and bring him home as well!!
I have a lot to be Thankful for and loosing Blake has made it even more real!
Hold your family and friends close...tell them that you love them!!!
You just never know what is going to happen!!!
As Always....
Keep Praying...IT WORKS!!!
