New Truck

Dwayne bought a new truck. It looks pretty sharp!

Spirit Week

I failed to get photos each morning of Spirit Week, but I got these two. The upper one was "Dress Like A Song" day. Do you know the song?













"There's a Hole in My Bucket, Dear Liza, Dear Liza"

One day was Wild West Day.

Cooking Class

Devin & I went to a cooking class where we made a few different types of dumplings and potstickers. We also made fried rice. Then we got to eat it all and it was delicious!


This is our instructor, Laurie Beth, with Devin.

Pituitary Testing

Devin underwent a lengthy test at MCV to measure his growth hormone production. The drugs he was given made him a bit nauseous at times.

The pictures loaded backwards. This is the mostly empty tray after we had been there some four hours. Down a little bit, you'll see a photo of the full tray of vials from when we were getting started. It's a wonder he had any blood left in him.

Devin has to do the same as Dwayne & I, look away when needles/blood are involved.

The full tray I referenced above.

The doctor and nurse checking on him. The nurse had to stay with him the entire time. We arrived at 7:45 and didn't leave until almost 2:00.

Cross Country

Devin being congratulated by classmates after winning the race. He has come in first place in the two races he has run in so far this season.

Grandpa is proud of Devin and was glad he got to see the race.
No runners anywhere in sight behind Devin as he approaches the finishline. It was 45 seconds before another runner came in.

On your mark, get set...

Devin is a lean, mean, running machine.

Crabs

Dwayne's secretary's husband has some crab pots so we bought some crabs from him over the weekend. We had a wonderful afternoon of crabs, watermelon, tomato/cucumber salad and homemade peach ice cream.

It was the first time Auntie Frances ever tried a crab. She ate several and enjoyed them.

Miche Bag Business

This is a professional photo of some of the big and classic Miche bags in a variety of shells. I have started selling these bags. It's fun and exciting. I hope it's also a good money maker.

This is three sizes of bags from my demo kit.

These are the same three bags with different shells. It's awesome to not move purse contents, but just swap the outside of the purse to a cover that matches your outfit for the day.

Camping

We camped down at Kerr over Labor Day weekend. Our friends Roberta & Greg Sharpe were on one side of us. Their daughter Jessi came with her husband and baby girl and were two sites down.
Dwayne fixing us a delicious and filling breakfast.

Our friends Jeff & Vanda Danielsen were on the site on the other side of us.

Devin enjoying his kayak on the lake. Dwayne & Jeff went out and around the island with him. I did a shorter voyage with Dwayne along the shoreline towards the dam.

We were chatting after breakfast and sipping coffee. Then Dwayne got into it with a yellow jacket and got stung on his finger. It was sitting in the handle of his cup when he picked it up to take a drink. Ouch!
