Mr. Revily Smith Legacy

What a beautiful tribute to our beloved  brother in-law. I am always in awe of the Power of Photography, it captures memories and gives us a visual reminder of how truly blessed we are. It also reminds us to Love and Cherish our love ones God has given us,  for one day he'll want them back.

Proud Parents and The Graduate

Amelia and Clyde beaming with great joy, the high school days are over!  I must say niecey wears orange very well. Eboni will be off to Grambling State University in the Fall. Congratulations Eboni we are all so proud of you.

Duvall High School Graduation-Landham, Maryland

Congratulations Eboni! It seems as if it was only yesterday that we attended your kindergarten graduation. Now you are off to college in a couple of months. Glad we were there to help celebrate this significant milestone in your life.

Favors for  Love Images Annual Scholarship luncheon. Once again Henry came to the rescue. Three days before deadline date I go sick and was in need of some serious help to complete 100 favors.. Thank you Henry!

Happy Easter

Our day started with us attending the 7:30 service and then Sunday School. We didn't prepare a large dinner, kept it simple with a ham, squash, asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes, and lemon cream cheese pie for dessert. I wanted to dye eggs but Henry and Harrington  didn't want to play with food coloring and makers, so instead I made chocolate covered treats and Cake Pops for Sunday School students.

I've been busy the last couple of weeks with Easter projects and favors.   These will be thank you gifts for guest at friend's daughter's Cotillion tonight.. The tins are stuffed with  packages of Peanut M&M's the guest of honor's favorite candy. Yellow is her favorite  color and she likes butterflies so I use them as accent on both the tin and mini Martinelli's juice bottles. I added a little bling to the butterfly accents. Need to put the brakes on, so I can  get our income taxes completed..this more enjoyable :)

Drivers Permit

Henry and Harrington were up and about very early Friday morning to avoid the long lines at the DMV.

Harrington successfully passed the AZ Drivers written exam to receive his driving permit. He was so excited with his score (28/30). I think he was more excited with his score, in that he was the only applicant to pass the exam that morning. Now we just need patience and self-contol during the next phase of obtaining a drivers license. I just hope he asks Henry to taking him driving instead of me :) 

 

Memory Lane

Childhood photos of my first cousins Keith, Earl, and my oldest brother Anthony.

Earl and Keith were like big brothers to Anthony. They are so handsome in their Sunday outfits(top photo).

I'm in the process of digitally scrapbooking a family heritage album. Many years these photos were mounted with black photos corner tabs in an vintage photo album.  My goal is to complete this project before our  family reunion in July. I'm anxious to see the expressions on their faces and their children' who've probably never seen many of these old photos of their parents.

Saturday Afternoon

Here are some digital scrapbook pages I created this afternoon.

These photos were taken when my Daddy killed a Bobcat while hunting on his family property.

My sibiling and I  along  with our neighbors the Blows and Grays were curious and excited to examine this cat. I never  imagained a Bobcat living in Northern Louisiana.

Dad and his cat were featured in the parish newspaper.
