Hailey Bird's Big Day

Hailey was awarded the Class Citizen of the Month award today... Her teacher said she nominated her because she was a good listener, she hurries and does what she is asked, she is a good friend, very funny and likes to help others. Way to go Hailey...

Yipee... I think this worked... i may get the hang of this after all.

Hailey's Baptism Day

wow... I really need to learn how to post pictures... This is Hailey and Jeff before the baptism...
She was so cute and Jeff had a tear in his eye most of the day... It's hard to believe that our family has grown to the point that she is our last child to be Baptized... It was a great day and I am so Grateful to all of you who were able to come and support her in this decision to become a member of the church.

For Family Night we had a pumpkin carving contest the day before halloween... and who won?? of course, Hailey... it was alot of fun sitting in the carport putting our hands in the muck and goo... just check out hailey's face she pulled...

Who do we really want for President???

Wow... i didn't realize how long it had been since my last post...
But here's a question for anyone... Who do we really want for President? I missed the debate last night and from what I have heard, people are pretty one sided, they want Obama... Which is scary for me. And maybe I am wrong, but to vote for Someone who won't salute the American Flag. Who has been given money and can't tell you or won't tell you where it comes from. Who's minister hates the White folk and America... Who has ties with people who hate American and what it stands for... Who has put on his committee people who helped put us into this financial crisis and got paid very well for doing it... do we really want them running our country? Granted, it's not pretty where we sit right now, But atleast from what I still read, we still have choices to make, granted, there are some very evil and selfish people out there who don't care who they step on to get what they want and innocent people are hurt, but isn't that where we need to take back our country? make everyone responsible for their choices?... But Obama seems to want total government control over everything.. No choices, no decisions to make, let the government take over and control it all... I am not necessarily happy about McCain, either,,, but considering the choices,,, what choice do we really have?
