ANNIVERSARY

Today January 18,2010 is mine and my wifes second anniversary and I have a great wife. This woman has been through hell and back and is still with me she deserves a oscar for this, We have had alot of good times and bad but she has stuck by me through it all no matter what. She is with out a doubt a very special woman that I am so much in love with and I thank God every day for letting me have her in my life. She does everything that a wife could possible do for me and our kids. Baby you are a great wife and great partner that I love having by my side every day. I hope and pray I get to have her by my side for many years to come, she puts me in my place when I need it, even though it might make me mad just because I know she is right she has away of making me think even if I dont want to and then I feel bad because she is always right but then she also has away of making me feel good when I feel like I have failed as a husband or father she is just so smart and she is just the perfect wife for me no matter what may be happening. Just to sum it up she is my one and only and always will be. BABYDOLL I LOVE YOU NOW AND FOREVER.

KYLE

Just saw some pictures of my son in basic training in South Carolina and he looks good. We saw pics of him carrying his bags to his room, saw pics of him coming out of the gas chamber, and pics of him training for hand to hand combat he really looks good I am so proud of him for sticking this out and just making it through the gas chamber takes alot I know I went through it myself a long time ago. If anyone reads this maybe you can drop him a word or two just to keep his spirits up and let him know people are pulling for him. his addy is PVT. Spivey Elliott

A NEW YEAR

Well, its that time of year where we make resolutions and try to keep them through out the next year, but most of us will fail to do so. I hope that this year will be better than the last was. Last year I did not keep to the things that I wanted to, but this year I want to do better. Each year I set my goals to where I think they are ok and I can accomplish them, but it never works out that way. So this year I will make them a little easier for anyone who actually reads this, and my guess would be my wife will be the only one, but thats ok to. To my wife and kids, I love you very much and one of my goals is to be a better husband, which my wife deserves, and a better father to all my kids. Happy New Year to all.

HOLIDAYS

When the holidays come around, it can make you sit back and think for a minute or two. I mean I have alot to be thankful for; my wife, my kids, my grandbaby and my job. I love my wife and kids very much but I also have a empty spot for my mom, whom I dearly miss. Thanksgiving was always her favorite holiday, then Christmas was next. She would get real happy this time of year and go all out with everything and i miss her more than any words can say. I also have lost my dad, my sister, and my first wife. But at least now I can hold my head up and look forward to all the holidays since I have a wonderful, beautiful wife and kids to share them with. I guess my point is, be thankful for each and every day you have with your family and enjoy all the holidays. To my wife, you are a very special woman who I love with all my heart and soul and I always will. Babydoll you are without a doubt the greatest.

LIFE IN ALABAMA

Well I have decided that I really do hate OPP, ALABAMA. It is a little town in the bottom of the state that is so messed up that is past any hope. The town council and the police are all crooked. The police pull you over here for no reason at all. This has got to be the stupidest city in the United States period. Me and my wife have had a rough couple of months and some where I have to find the silver lining and get us through the next few months until we can get the hell out of this stinking state and get to where things can change one way or the other. I mean, atleast when we move it won't be just me and my wife having to fight life alone there. We will have some support close by. We do a good job with things like they are, but would be nice to have some family that really gives a shit when you need them to step in. I mean for example, like if one of us were in the hospital, we would be able to feel comfortable with leaving our kids with them, unlike here. I love my family and want them to have a fair shake at life and here they don't at all.

FAMILY

Lets begin with the fact I love my family but sometimes I feel like a old rag doll. I mean I have one brother left, two grown kids and two small kids that depend on me. The small kids depend on me and my wife to teach them right from wrong and take care of them each and every day not just part time. What I am getting to is that the older ones that are grown never call me or come see me unless they need something or their cars are tore up. It really bothers me that they cannot just call me to see if I am ok but just to fix something for them. Maybe I am overreacting. I mean at least I do hear from them when they need something right? I guess that is something, but just wish they could call just to say hi or something like that. When you look at it family can be needy but when they are grown, they should depend on themselves more.

Peanut Festival

Hey there, here is another post to read. We went and took the kids to the festival Friday night and they had a ball. We started off looking at all the exhibits, the animals, and the kids even got to pet and feed some of the animals. I got free tobacco from the companies set up there. We went through the 4h exhibits and tried to let the kids see that they can use their imagintion to make things on their own. They had some great stuff there. I did not agree with some of the ribbons that got awarded but all the kids that helped on the projects deserve recognition for the efforts that put in.


We left the exhibits and went to the rides and I am telling you they had a ball on them. I got sick watching them on some of the faster rides, but they loved it. My wife had a good time and had a few laughs and let me tell you they were music to my ears. I love seeing her have fun as well as the kids. My wife and kids got to try a turkey leg and I think they all liked it. They had roasted corn on the cob, funnel cakes and nachos with chilli and peppers. Over all we had a good time at the fair and nobody got sick from it even though it was cold. Well that is it for now write more later.
