Snake in my HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was putting dishes away when out from behind my cabinets came this wonderful creature!!
Can you see his ugly little head peaking out? Tim got out the rifle, but we decided that we didn't want to try to explain to our landlord why there were holes in the cabinets & walls. Score one for the snake. I finally found the red pepper, score TWO for me!! The red pepper made the snake go into the container, and we took him off to the woods.
Obviously I was not going to take any chances!! So, for all you animal lovers, no animals were harmed, but harm was seriously thought of!!! I guess it was good camp training, but I'm still jumping back everytime I open a cabinet!!!

Father/Son Camping Retreat

We had over 40 fathers and sons in attendance for this years father-son camping trip! A good time was had by all! Notice all the food pictures that Tim took? He said he wanted everyone to know what one of the most important aspects of camping!! Special thanks to the John Langdon family for allowing us to use their property. As well thans to Mr. Dallas for cooking and tracy for the registration help. Thanks to J.W. and April for moving the cows over for us and all the extra food and such. It was a great time with Donny Tippet smoking a pig and creating a bonfire that slightly resembled a volcano. The nature prayer walk was great and the friendships and fun will last forever. The guys decided that in Sept. we should do a family retreat and let the girls come too. Wendy says only if you bring lots of chocolate.
