Golden Apple Awards

 
 
















Last Year Delaney's school participated with the Huntsville Times in writing a letter to nominate a teacher for a Golden Apple Award. Huntsville City, Madison City and Madison County school systems all participated elementary through high school. Ten letters were chosen and 10 well deserving teachers were recognized and awarded with the Golden Apple Award for doing all the MANY things a good teacher does.

Delaney nominated one of her teachers from Walnut Grove  Mrs.Wright. I can only skim the surface in telling you what a special teacher and person Mrs.Wright is because she is so wonderful this blog could turn into a novel. We knew Mrs.Wright was a special person in our lives way before these awards came about Delaney just put it on paper for other people to see. Mrs.Wright is a Godly woman and it shows in her daily walk through life. She is also a WONDERFUL teacher she has been there for Delaney while Delaney was in her class and after both through educational trials and personal trials. She is truly a beautiful person inside and out and we are forever grateful she was brought into our lives!!

The dinner was very nice Mrs.Heard (Walnut Grove's Vice Principal) and Dr.Terry Davis (Madison County's Superintendent) also shared a table with us. It is nice to have school officials that take time out of there awfully busy schedules to share things like this with their students and teachers.

So we are proud of Delaney and forever grateful and thankful for Mrs.Wright!

Hunting Season 2011

Today is the day to say GOODBYE to your husband until January if he is a hunter! Bye to spending time together on Saturdays, Bye to staying out or up late on Friday nights because they gotta get up early and if you really got it bad Bye to seeing him even during the week in the afternoons! Dove opening day starts it ALL we go from this to Deer Season and from that to Duck Season and anything else that has feathers or fur.
Really Mark is not  that bad though he does not hunt nearly as much as he has in  years past. Today Ella Blaire is going dove hunting with him. She was sooo excited her and Mark train his new dog Nellie (named after the gun brand Benellie) almost every afternoon. Today is Nellie's big first day! Hope she does good.
Well to all you hunting wives be patient with them they are still little boys at heart but make sure you get the same  amount of money they spent on guns, bows, hunting club memberships and whatever else to go shopping with every Saturday this fall!LOL!!
