I baked an Illinois (Texas) Sheet Cake just for Nathan. It is one of his favorites and I also picked up a jug of hot chocolate----there is plenty for all!!



Here's a pic of Nathan and his wife and daughter before he left for Iraq!

Welcome home, Nathan! And that little Snow White is just precious. I'm going to sidle up to the fire and put my cold feet up to warm them. Pass the cocoa!

Welcome home Nathan. Since my arms being twisted, I'll take one leaving 83. Oh, guess I need to take a six packer 'cause I'm celebrating the TN Titans game last night, oh that was last night! Oh well, still Code Bluing it today. So let's bring 'er down to 77 bbotw and I'll replenish later. Go Titans, at least I can cheer for the because the Vols are not doing well, at ALL! Titans are now 7-0. Oh, what the heck, I'll have another so make that 76. I know it's gotta be 5 o'clock Somewhere!!!!!

[Fernie]

Cough---cough!!! Sorry---I about choked on that arm twisting Carolyn!! Got some chilli dogs for tonight!! Even got a little bbq slaw from North Carolina to put on it!! Grabbed one off the wall for me and one for Bash-----oh no----Tobie wants one so I need one for him too!! Carolyn left 76 and we took 3 so I think it is down to 73 bottles of beer on the wall---73 bottles of beer. Take one down, pass it around......

[Fernie]

I brought a whole load of wood and threw on a bunch so the fire is warm and toasty!! Just had to stop by and grab a couple to celebrate the new pics we got of Nathan's homecoming!! Sorry but I just had to share one more picture!! My niece said thank you for all the warm thoughts from ya'll. We are all very gratefull to our men and women in uniform!!! I thought this was too precious not to share!! Of course, I am a little prejudice.

Aw, Fernie, it's a great picture - and I'm so glad you shared it! Was about to walk Peaches and head to bed - but since I'm at the campfire, I think I must partake of a beer first - this takes us to 72 bottles of beer on the wall.

[Sunseeker]

Awwwww, great picture. Nothing like the love of a daddy for his little girl. Her freedom is the reason he made it through. Thanks for sharing that with us, Fernie.

[Shirlv]

Ah! Geez! Fernie, now you made me tear up. I wish we would see pictures like a Daddy and his Baby in the news instead of the garbage they show. Thanks

[Cedar518]

Pass the kleenix, Shirl,.... I teared up too! I'm sooooooooooo glad that Nathan and babe could join our campfire!
