The Junior League of Evansville Rummage Sale is next weekend!! I know you are super busy and it’s a long, long drive., but you guys said to tell you when it is. October 23, 5 to 8 p.m. and October 24 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Maybe your mom can come. I’m working it Friday night … credit card line!! I’ll be on the lookout for one of those ovens! Have fun at the beach. It’s freezing cold here … like 52 degrees!!! brrrrrrr. Connie may not want to come back!!!

    The pouty face pictures are priceless! They remind me of pumpkin patch pictures I took last Sunday. My boys looked like I was making them sit on hot pokers.

    Darby,

    What camera do you use/any special lenses? I’m in the market for a new digital, and your photos are always so clear and life-like.

    Thanks.
