Thanksgiving Weekend

Hello everyone. Sorry it has taken so long to update.

This past Saturday, I had Thanksgiving with my dad's family. My Uncle Neal and Aunt Angie came down from KY, Uncle Gene Ray and Betty Lou, Momma Dot, all 7 of us, Mrs. Baker, Nana, and one of daddy's coworkers and his wife were there. Daddy bought the meat from Fresh Market and it was delicious. We had a lot of fun and it was nice to see family.

I can't wait until Thanksgiving at Grandma's because I want some good mashed potatoes :) Donna had this recipe and her's were not very good but shh :).

Hope everyone has a good holiday.

grandma-sorry it took so long to update.

The Secret Life of Bees

Hello everyone. Sorry it has been so long but I am updating now. On Saturday night, the whole family went out for Nana's birthday at Binion's. It was delicious. After that, we went and saw The Secret Life of Bees. It was such a great movie. Dee and Rebecca had read the book and they raved about it, so I was excited to see the movie. Wonderful! Now I want to read the book after I finish all my other books I'm reading for English.

Also Congratulations again to Shawn and Tiffany on your wedding. Tiffany-you looked beautiful.

One more thing- Atley got a promotion at Best Buy. He is now a Customer Assistant. Congratulations :)

Gonna be a Catamount!

Yay!!!!!! I FINALLY received my acceptance letter. I am going to WCU in January. I have a lot of paperwork to fill out. Well I just thought I would let everyone know!!!

Day that will always be remembered

September 11, 2001.

Today marks the 7th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center. Mr. Bashkin (my history teacher) showed us a slideshow today in history class. Some of the pictures I have seen but some I had not. It is still eerie to see those pictures and all the loved ones that were lost. I still remember I was in Mrs. Maxwell's 8th grade english class when it happened. We were watching some movie and everyone noticed the teachers pacing up and down the halls. I will always remember that. It will be interesting in 30-40 years to see what history teachers will say about it. Thank you Nathan, and all the other soldiers out there still fighting for our safety. God Bless You.
