~Out Little Man~
Wow that was exciting. I think Rocky is still grinnin over that...
This past weekend, I took Cem, Gab, Maranda and Bri to the lake house for the weekend. Kelsey's grandma from CA is here visiting. SO we snuck off without her, I hated doing that, but we planned this when we thought she was not going to be here this past weekend. Did not want to tell the others we could not go. There will be lots of other weekends.. They are not letting Easton go places yet, so that will come also.. The weekend of the 22, I am going to Dallas with Cem and Gab on a youth group trip, that will be exciting. We are going to a Rangers game on Friday nite, then Six Flags all day Saturday. Then back home on Sunday... Rocky, Deanna Kelsey and Deanna's family are going to the Lakehouse that weekend...
Well, better get off and get some sleep. Work tomorrow. This is the beginning of our Fiscal year. so I am keying some 100 plus contracts for this year... I will get them all done...
Nite all. LOVE TO ALL!!!!!!

~STORMS~
THen we had a GORGEOUS weekend for Easter... It was a great day. We all gathered at mom and dad's, just missing James's Family and Buck (he was working). Had a great time with the kiddos hunting eggs, then they decorated sugar cookies.. Had icing and sprinkles all over the patio, but the rain washed it off that night... I will add pics when I get them off the camera. I am adding this between tornados tonite.. We had tornados last night and again tonite.. They are saying the ones tonite are going to be really bad. but so far. has not been too bad.. Kelsey told her mom, she needed to go check on her Nana, cause Nana was scared of storms too like her.. SO they came out here since Rocky is in class in Litte Rock and will be in later,,. So here I sit, Kel is in living room watching Madagascar... I am doing a little updatin watching the sky out the window in the office.. Looking a little dark, I think the next storm is supposed to hit about 7:30 or so.. Guess I better get off and shut down the computer. All you in Storm Land, be safe tonite. May God keep his protecting hands on all of you and also on all of you that are in good weather right now. LOVE YA!!!!!!!

~Hyacinths are in Bloom~
Just when we thought Spring was here, with all the warm days, today it is COLD again... I am so ready for warm weather... I just do not like the cold, it makes me hurt too bad, but Spring will be here soon...
Well gotta go, I think the peach cobbler is done. Gonna let it cool a bit and then take it to mom and dad... I went and sat with dad today for a couple hours while mom went to get some groceries... He is doing great.. He forgets and tries to use his arm, but soon is reminded that he cannot do that just yet... But soon he will be able to do things he has not in a very LONG time... I am so blessed to have my parents and to have them so close to me.. I have a friend that is sitting in an inpatient Hospice unit tonite with her mother... I cannot imagine the pain they are feeling right now... But I pray for them to have the strength to endure this pain. God will wrap his loving arms around them and give them comfort and strength... After all he is the GREAT COMFORTER>>

~WAY BEHIND~
First, I am going to be a Nana again.. Bruce is going to be a daddy in May.. Found that out end of Sept. Since then we found out Dec. 27 (Mine and Larry's 15th Anniversary) they are having a BOY.. My FIRST GRANDSON!!!! His name will be "Robert Easton" Wow, how exciting.. Now we will have to change "GIRLS NITE OUT AT NANA"S" since there will soon be a boy in the mix... But we can do that..
Yesterday, Bruce told me he had placed an offer on a house and it was accepted... So now we are buying our first home... So his world as he knows it is about to CHANGE DRASTICALLY!!!!!! But he has a good head on his shoulders and he will do fine.. Me on the other hand... Not so sure about, Have not been childless for almost 32 years.. What an adjustment. But this too I will handle..
Mom had knee replacement, that was not so much a piece of cake.. Her knee has done great, even with all the set backs. She ended up really sick the day after surgery with some type of virus maybe, not sure... She was real sick for about 48 hours.. Then went to rehab with some type of rash on her back... then home... Well for awhile, then in the hospital (OVER CHRISTMAS) with a severe bout of Diverticulum... Then she went into Bronchial Pheumonia. Hopefully she is on the road to recovery now...
Dad was supposed to have Shoulder replacement on Feb. 17th, but he had a bad cold so it was postponed until March 1st.. So hopefully that will go off with little or no hitches... I need them to both be well. We have trips and tractor shows to attend to...
Christmas:: We had Christmas on New Years Day, since mom was in the hospital on Christmas.. We had a great time. Almost everyone was there.. We played the Left Right Family, and then Dirty Santa. It was hilarious... We had a GREAT TIME. but it always is a Great time when Family is together... Our family is getting really large.. It is hard to fit all of us in the living room.. But we manage....
Larry had his cardio check up. His cholesterol was good, but his triglycerides are way high.. over 500.. So now we are on fish oil caps... Hope that gets those down.. We are supposed to recheck in 3 months, that is if I can get him to the doc for re-check.. Men.....
My girls are doing great... Kelsey had her 5th Birthday at the Wellness center pool. A pool party on the 29th of January and the outside temp was "75"... Imagine that... Could have had an outdoor party at the park.. That would have been great too, but in AR you never know what the weather is going to be.. I think we had about 25 4 & 5 year olds, plus Cem and Gab... We had a pool full. And K bug, said, "I had a BLAST at my pool party"
Rocky and Buck have our 1931 Farmall Regular completely torn down. I have a parts manual ordered. As soon as it comes in, we will be busy ordering parts to rebuild the motor in it as it was locked up, which we knew when we bought it.. They have had a blast tearing that old thing down. Can't wait to get it running, and painted. We may try to haul it in the parade, cannot drive it as it has spikes on the wheels and it would tear up the pavement. It will be Battleship gray..
I have been creating a Family Photo album on Facebook. There are some really OLD pics in there. Everyone seems to be really enjoying seeing them old photos. Some are more recent, but there are some of Grandma and Grandpa Tuberville's parents in there. Check em out.. I have more to scan and post. So far I think there is almost 300 photos in 2 albums... I am having a large time putting them up there..
Other than all that, not much going on here at our place... I will try to do better about posting more frequently..
LOVE TO ALL!!!

~Part 3 - JUNEAU AK~
~Part 2 ALL ABOARD~
~Where to START?? Part 1 Seattle ~
We had a long travel day,, but finally made it to Seattle and our Hotel... Hotel shuttle took us to a local restaurant called "the Roaster" for dinner. Then it was time to turn in, because we had a busy day planned the next day..
Charles, Mashelle, Nick and Joe, picked us up around 9 and we headed for Snoqualmie Falls, beautiful place.. LOVED IT... we walked around the area and viewed the falls from all angles and waundered through the gift shop before heading out to our next stop..
On to the Seattle Space Needle. They were getting ready for the Labor Day festival that weekend.. Great park... Had lunch at the Food Court there in the park. Waundered around some of the street vendors, in the Space Needle gift shop (no one went up in it)... Weather was great, Not too hot and not too cold.. Got some great PICS....
Then on to a drive along the coast, where we saw beautiful parks and GORGEOUS hanging basket planters... Then back to the Hotel to wait for Larry to arrive... Then to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory... WOW,,, What a great dinner... We laughed and had a great time.. Thanks Charles and Mashelle for a WONDERFUL day aroud Seattle... It was great seeing them and getting to meet your 2 youngest sons.. I had not seen Charles and Mashelle since Josh was about 2 weeks old, that is A LONG TIME!!!! Hope it is not that long till I see you again...
Then we called it a nite. Tomorrow onto the Ship and North to Alaska....

~21 DAYS~ and stuff....
Larry and I have been on an Alaskan Cruise before, but this time will be SUPER special. We get to experience it through my parents eyes (remember to take your glasses)... They have never been on a cruise nor have they ever been to Alaska. This is going to be SPECTACULAR...
Things at work have been just absolutely crazy. One of the secretaries, that thinks she runs the entire show there (only been there a little over a year) has filed a grevience and I, along with several others has been named in it. We all had to write a statement about things that have been going on. We really want her out the door. She is just a real piece of work... It has been a really bad atmosphere to work in. Hopefully they will have a hearing soon and things will change..
This past month, I have had some health issues and all the doctors are pointing their finger at other doctors, it's not what I treat, it's what you treat... etc.... It has been crazy, but I think we may be getting somewhere now. I have had a COMPLETE cardiac workup, stress echo and all, and it is not my heart, My heart is in excellent shape according to the cardiologist, but they did pulmonary function tests and found Reactive Lung Disease, caused by exposure to toxin.. I go Monday to talk about a plan of treatment, but until then I have an inhaler I have to use twice daily. In looking back over my records the doc says I have been complaining of most of these same symptoms for almost 3 years now.. So I probably got it when we were building the house and I had pneumonia and spent alot of time out here with all the paint, glue, grout, etc in the house with my lungs already compromised with the pneumonia. It took me almost 6 months to get well from that... I was beginning to think I was allergic to my new home.. Heat aggravates it alot and we have had ALOT of triple digit temps the past month. The cooler weather in Alaska will be great for it.
All the kids go back to school on Thursday. They are all back in the same school again this year, except Kelsey and she is still in Day care, but next year will be Kindergarten... That is going to be something... Not ready for that...
Well better get off here and fix my husband some supper...
NIte All.
OH Tomorrow mom, dad, larry and I are off to the LawnMower races in Hope. Another exciting outing.. Can't wait. Gonna be a HOT ONE!!!!!!!!
