TREVOR'S FISH
Our grandson Trevor Shively is an avid fisherman and the one fish that always alluded him is the "Snook", but he finally caught one.
AN AMAZING PAINTING!
Brooke's art teacher at Skycrest Christian School took a self portrait that Brooke painted to an art show in Largo, Florida. The show was for ages 13 - 18. Brooke is 13 and is graduating from 8th grade this year. As it turned out, her painting won 1st place and she got a check for $200.00.....I had to share this painting with you!
CRUSING AGAIN!
In August we took our first cruise on Royal Caribbean and just loved it. We were suppose to go to the Western Caribbean, but of course, a hurricane re-routed us to the Eastern Caribbean. We were disappointed, but the ship (The Mariner of the Seas) was so beautiful that we enjoyed every minute of our cruise.

RIVER HOUSE
We spent the week at Rainbow River with some great friends. I was NANA to all of these kids and enjoyed every minute of it. We swam, fished, kayaked and floated down the river on tubes to the rope swing. Of course the highlight is always putting pennies on the railroad track so the the train flattens them. A great time was had by all!!!
