The James Family: Fellowship Fun!

We had a busy, but wonderful few weeks with our church group...

A trip to the Corgill Ranch south of Sheffield. "South of Sheffield?", you ask? Yes, there is existence even further south! And it was a diamond in the rough, I tell you! We swam in the cool river next to huge bluffs, hiked through tall, tall Live Oaks, and visited with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Can't beat that!

These guys just love her, though they're all a bit distracted at the moment...Bigfoot?

Talking in over with the preacher man.

Her pal, Rylan!

Her other fun pal, Bre!

The week following we held our annual school supply giveaway, giving backpacks full of supplies to almost 100 kids with extras to spare.

And the day after that was the James' Family Shindig out at our place! Yeehaw! We all wore white shirts, jeans, boots and handed out bandannas for all! I thought we looked mighty fine...just hope the neighbors didn't think of us a colt or something of the sorts! Brad and several of the men cooked which left us women to visiting. That was until the storm blew in! Previously that day, my mom, grandmother and I had made the cutest table arrangements for several tables...well those lasted about an hour when the wind hit! Tables were taken apart and moved rather quickly inside the garage. Our pleasant outdoor event of horseshoes, bad mitten and a cake walk was moved into our dirty, hideously unorganized garage, of all places! But with there being approx. 60 people there that night, there was not alot of room to move indoors. Luckily for that night, the rain missed us, we pulled the tables back out (without the cute arrangements mind you) and the evening continued just fine! We really enjoyed having everyone out!
