Maggie's Visit to the Pumpkin Patch

We stopped by a Pumpkin Patch while in California last week. Good pick Maggie. I guess she knows we're on a budget!
Ok. I don't know why this one is sideways, and it's one of my favorites!

She loves pumpkins or "pum-pums" as she calls them.


Walking with Daddy to find more pumpkins.



Kissing the pumpkin good-bye!

Callie's Yard Sale~ October 18,2008

This is a picture of our sweet Callie taken here in Las Vegas just a couple of weeks before her accident.

Last Saturday, Faun and I had a yard sale to raise a little money for our niece Callie Butler. This whole thing would not have been possible without the help of lots of other people. We received many, many donations from friends, family, and church members who heard about Callie's story and wanted to help. So many people were involved that I couldn't possibly list all their names! I do want all of you (you know who you are) to know how much we appreciate all of your time and service. The sale was lots of fun and we earned $615.00! We know this won't even put a dent in Callie's medical bills but it might help Dana and Jeff's family with travel costs, food, Christmas or whatever they want to use it for. Callie's story is an inspiration to us all and we want her and her family to know how much they are thought of and loved!
