I must share our watermelon story with you!

We pulled up our shrubs a long time ago(we thought we would replant, hasn't happened so far)

so when the sun got to the front of the house this fall , wow, watermelon vines started growing and then we had 3 watermelons start to grow in the fall.

JD was so thrilled!! so we couldn't cut them down, so we watched them grow, day by day. But,,,the cool temps kept them from growing big enough to eat and the vine started to die, so we decided to cut our melons and check them out on the inside.

so these pics are for that purpose. Happy Watermelon Y'all!

These are some of our friends that we have had for "umpteen" years, we never all get together but we finally did and we loved it. A nice fall afternoon.

for an update:

Things are not better at our youth, but I know that the Lord is going to show His awesome strength and power soon. I know that the Lord is ultimately in control and this is for a reason.

My kids are just hurting and I can't do anything else about it, I have done all I know to do and right now the Lord is just making me stand still and I know that is His plan at this time but it's really hard for me.

If you are reading this please pray for me, us and our youth at Pleasant Grove Baptist.

I hope your week finishes well:)
