Hey it is Saturday. We have to go to town on Saturday. So I headed to joplin. Had the top down. Hum now my forehead is sunburned. Oops

Didn't buy anything but did look. Thinking about planting more trees. Got some good ideas. Also saw something for Christmas. Didn't buy it but came home and ordered it in amazon

Then I went to the farm and checked on the cows at both places. All is well

Worked on my vacation bible school skit. Almost done. More fine tuning

Remember Sunday is coming.

Rained again today. I think the farmers like this.  I did notice that my lagoon has water in it. It was getting very low last time I mowed. 

Checked the cows. Yippie. They were all in. I did find one area that they had tried to cross over so I fixed that fence. 

Pick up brush at the rental house. So we'd will be having a wiener roast in the near future as a result of the piles of brush from this storm 

This evening I went to the relay for life in parsons. They had it inside the high school gym since we were supposed to get rain. Still had a good turnout. Walked a few laps with friends. Ate some food with friends and then decided I needed to go home.

Hhappy birthday to Thomas. He is 3 months old today 

It rained about an inch and half. Had some wind damage so I had to use the chain saw to cut up one of the big limbs. No adverse action as a result of using the chainsaw. Just wore me out. So I am pretty tired tonight

Then I went up to my brothers and he had several limbs down. Nothing big enough to use a chain saw

But had to pick up several

Then I checked the cows. They were out again so I spent some time getting them back into the pasture and fixed fence of a couple trees that had fallen last night

Ok got up at 2 to check on Thomas not on manny duty anymore

Got up at 4 to check on Thomas. Not on manny duty anymore

Got up at 6 and realized that I  wasn't on manny duty

I know slow learner

So I went to the farm to check cows for my brother. Didn't make it back home and he called to say cows were in neighbors corn. So I headed back up there. Cows really wernt in corn but I spent some time fixing fence and checking cows. 

Talked to the basement guy today. He is looking at the second or third week of July to put the basement in. So now I have time to get the limbs off the lot and ready for a dozer to push the tree stumps over. Yep I have work to do. Ribs are about ready for a workout 

Talked to brad today. He didn't get much sleep last night after the surgery. He had the hic ups and couldn't sleep  keep praying that his knee will heal and that he will have patience

This is the last day I get to be a manny. Tomorrow leanna does not have children in the classroom so she gets to take Thomas with her to school. So no mor manny duty 

Enjoyed it while it lasted 

To brian and his brothers sang at a honor flight recognition. Leanna Thomas and I went. It was very good. There were 81 veterans going to Washington most were ww2 but a few from Korea and 3 from Vietnam   The singing group did great. It was and honor to listen to them read off each individual name which service and a little about what he did. Thanks Oklahoma for taking care of the veterans

Ok on a personal my nephew brad is a navy aviator. Today they had surgery on his knee. It was more involve than anticipated. He is grounded from flying for 5 months. But should made a full recovery. Pray that he will heal fast and that he will be patient (not a strong thompson trait) with the healing process

Also received a message from ishmail's wife. He is my pastor friend in uganda. He is not healing from the typhoid fever he had 2 weeks ago. He is paralyzed from the waist down. Also he is bleeding from the rectum so they have put him back into the hospital   she is fearful and needs our prayers as well as ishmail as he struggles with these health issues

Here is Thomas with his ou shirt on. Bob stoops has called and wants to sigh a letter of intent for the ou football team. Ok maybe not

Had a good day. Thomas and I went to lunch at leanna school. Then we picked up some medicine at the store  brian wanted to grill steaks so he bought the steaks and we cooked them so they would be ready when leanna came home from school

So david and sarah had a good anniversary. They had a meal with Jedi Mickey at Walt Disney. How cool is that Star Wars weekend and it is their anniversary

Mike and melissa are busy getting ready to move to Oklahoma. She found out that the mammogram in question looked very similar to the one she had taken a couple of years ago at scott Air Force base. So no problem. Another answered prayer

If you want to see some cool pictures of Tom baker at his birthday go to jerry Bolen Facebook page.  

Spent this evening getting Thomas bed ready for him. Leanna said he can sleep in it when he is 3 months old. That will be this Thursday. 3 months wow time flies. And he continues to grow. 

The bed has Noah ark animals on the bumper around the edges. Thomas really likes it.

Had a good day. Went to church. Then took a nap. Then drove to OKC. This is the last week of my manny duty. May have to volunteer for extra days to spend time with Thomas

So leanna said that she might go to Ashlee and halee dance recital. So I drove to rose state auditorium to watch the girls dance. They are really good.  so I have my culture for the month. We will see

Tomorrow is a big day. 

David and sarah celebrate their wedding tomorrow. 

Mike and melissa celebrate their wedding tomorrow. Congratulations to both couples

Please pray for melissa. They are doing a second test on a spot noticed during her mammogram   So pray that it is really nothing. Mike just found out that he is still cancer free so that is an answer to prayer

Tomorrow is tom bakers birthday. He will be 95. He is still spry and wants to work around the house.
