A Little History

I like to tell everyone that I was made in England, born in Texas & raised in Florida. Of course I am what you call a military brat, but I don't consider myself such because my family never moved again after we came to Florida in 1965. My parents have always told me that I have been all over the United States, like Yellowstone, Grand Tetons and the Grand Canyon, but that was all when I was 2. I am married to an extremely hard working man whom I am madly in love with and we have 3 beautiful daughters aged 23, 18, and surprise, 7! Our 18 year old is married and has our first precious grandson who is his Grandpa's delight. He (Andrew) was born on our 24th wedding anniversary. Three days later, our then 22 year old had our second precious grandson (Hunter). My husband always wanted a son but winded up instead with 2 tomboys for daughters and 2 grandsons. My husband and I are self-employed in the construction industry, which, thanks to everyone thinking our economy is so bad, has just about come to a standstill. We are both born again Christians and attend a fundamental Baptist church. We own a cat and 1 - 2 Springer Spaniels. One is liver and white -Chloe-(which is supposed to be owned by our daughter & son-in-law but they can't have pets where they live) and the other is Missy and she is black & white as you can see. In this blog, I will write about the interesting things that have happened to my family. We have had some unusual things happen and have been told by so many people that we should write a book, but I honestly don't know if anyone else would be interested, so that is what this blog is for. I f there is interest, I will probably post here for a while and see where it takes me. Thank you for taking your time to read me and I hope you find it was worth your time. God bless you and if you don't know the one and only true Lord & Saviour, Jesus Christ, please find someone to pray with you, go to a good solid church that follows the Bible, speak to a Pastor, do everything you possibly can to make sure you are saved! "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Whosoever meaneth me!
