Wow! I had more comments on my shortest post ever then my longest post! Hehe
Anyways! I have pets! I'm going to say around... 100 or more. =D
That would be.... Butch, just hatched! These photo's are Night 1, the first hatching's. I also have photo's of tonight...
Left to right. Bob, Billy, Betty, Beth, Beeline, Bertha, Butch.... *Stares at Baby book of B's.* Oh and Larry!
Unhatched eggs! You can see them in it! Cute right?
And he is my guest star! Larry!!!! *You may cheer here*
No, he's not for sale!
But my Dad and I were joking around we'll take them to church and sell them each for $5!!! Want one ;) I hope some grow to turn into moths! They grow HUGE!! Dad was sure happy about that! Then the other joke was we'd name them all B's! But I needed one without B, so I needed LARRY!
So I think I have a lot in my life now! P.s. I do go out, but I'm sure you'd rather not hear about how wonderful I am at Archery or I hit the bulls eye on my first shot with the pellet gun my brothers got! (Dad was the only other one, but I was the first Bulls eye!)

Funny Thing
Okay I think this was so funny, maybe not to you but to me it was!
I was riding my bike and I saw a bird dive down. My eye went down with the little thing and I heard a kind of screech. But a car was in the way. When the car was out of the way and I could see I saw.....
The bird, flying away from a huge fluffy gray cat! It had attached a cat! And the cat looked like he was a bit too full to eat the bird, so it spared its little life. But the birdie... looked like he had won a battle.

Busy.... again?
Yep, I'm busy as a bee once more! I'm helping out at Harvest Church VBS this week, and today I got a dentist cleaning. I might go bowling with a friend this week! (That would be 2nd time in my life!) I might go and swim or something with Darcy. I might hang out with another friend. PLUS I'm doing whatever mom has for me and being a mother's helper Friday.... MAN my life won't stop. And the funny thing is I feel like I'm not active! *Maybe its the fact I'm inside reading or on the Web...... Hmmm* So Another goal to a long goal list! *To get active*
Also I just got Zoo Tycoon 2: Zookeeper Collection. It has Zoo Tycoon 2 then also Zoo Tycoon 2: Endangered Species and Zoo Tycoon 2: African Adventure. I love it a load more then Zoo Tycoon. Its much better. Better Graphics's, More animals, you can become a Zookeeper, you can get up close to the animals *and not have them eat you alive!* Take pictures of them, its so fun!
I'm needed by Mom.... again!
Luv Ya'll

Lost yet Found
BAND UPDATES
Trailer Found!
Dear Friends,
Many words would go into this letter, but we want to Thank Jesus for helping us recover our "stuff." You have been so faithful to pray, and financially support us during the past 6 days as we have walked through a scary and uncertain situation with the theft of our trailer and gear. We are so excited to report that at 1am on Tuesday morning, we received a call that our trailer and gear had been found by the Montgomery Police Department. While this investigation is ongoing, we want to respect the job that the local police are currently doing to find the people responsible for this crime, we did want to pass along the news to you. As of the writing of this, we have personally not seen the trailer yet (other than on the news - Thanks to our AMAZING friends at WSFA NBC Montgomery), nor any of our gear. We are told that the police feel about 90% of the stuff is still inside the trailer.
We do know, and have confirmed that it was the story that aired on WSFA that broke the case. We are thankful to whoever made that call into the tip line. Thank you for doing the brave thing. We hope we can repay you one day.
To the Montgomery Police Department and Sheriffs office, thank you for working so hard for the past 6 days to find our gear. We appreciate you not just treating this as another stolen property case, but going above and beyond.
To the folks at WSFA TV, thanks for taking a few minutes over the past few days to share our story with your viewers. You made a huge difference.
And finally, to the many friends and fans who have been praying and sending in your support. We are so grateful to you. We will be using the funds to replace any gear that was stolen, and we will be back on tour starting Sunday!
Many verses in scripture talk about us relying on God for our needs. Our story is a life story of asking Him to meet us where we are. And this case is no different. Please don't view the TV coverage, national radio coverage, and web blogs to be about us. It's all about our Great God who loves and cares for us. This is just another one of His amazing life moments. To that we are humbled.

Rush of Fools
My Dad got this E-mail and I had to post it.
We need your prayers! Early this morning, Rush Of Fools' trailer was stolen out of our driveway in Alabama. The band has lost everything they own including all merchandise, guitars, cases, amps....anything you would see them play with at a show is gone. Insurance will cover some of the costs, but due to recent purchases and additions to the gear, the value lost is over $60,000. This, as you know, is a major loss for a young band. We know that God has plans in the midst of this. While we look for answers, please pray that our trailer and gear will be found quickly and unharmed. We are all off on vacation this week, and Wes gets married on Saturday. Not exactly the kind of stress you need before your wedding.
Our next set of concerts begin on July 14th, and our management company is working now to help find solutions so we can continue to play concerts and share our music with hurting people who need to hear it.
Romans 8:28 says, "And we know that all things work together for good to those that love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." This verse is where we all live and breathe. We trust God in all things, even when we don't have the answers to why someone would do this. It's our prayer that whoever took the gear and trailer would come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ through our stuff. Yes, literally, our “stuff” would be the catalyst to their introduction to Christ.
So, we need your immediate help in two ways. First, if you can pray, please stop right now and ask God to intervene and find our trailer. Second, if you are able to help financially, we would love that support. You can mail checks to Rush Of Fools, Inc at the address below. All money received will go towards being able to replace our gear.
You not only are the best fans in the world, but you are our friends too.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for us, our band, and our families.

Just Pray for them, they are a great band and if you have never heard of them on 91.9 you should.
