Catching Up.....Our Little Hilton

I just realized that I haven't caught up on "Our Little Hilton" posts!
For those of you that don't know, this is our little humble hunting cabin.
See the deer?


We put a trail camera on a tree facing the little cabin and never
expected to see deer right up here at the house.
See the deer on the left.

I don't think I have ever shown the outside of the little Hilton
so here it is.  See the shingles on the outside?  I started nailing them on but
that is as far as I got.

We just could not believe that the deer came that close.

And another little visitor....a fox!

The outside doesn't look so great but we know hunters that
stay in a school bus that they have fixed up and believe me
2 bedrooms, full bath, living room with stove & ref., air conditioning,
and heat sure looks a lot better to me!

I will try to catch up on these posts soon.

I am just so amazed by this.
Looks like she wants me to build a fire so she can sit
and enjoy it! lol

I don't like foxes being that close.

But at least it is not the BEAR!

Update On Baby Reese

This precious baby is going to be a miracle because of prayers.
Her Mom says she is doing better bit by bit.

Her Mom said that she got to change her diaper today.
I thought that was so sweet that she was so excited just to change a diaper.
The baby is still in PICU but is so much better.

This is her today.  Her Mom freed her arms.
My daughter, "May May" left a comment saying it looked like
Baby Reese was praising the Lord.  I bet she is.
Behki put a video on facebook and I have it on my wall but
didn't know how to post it here.  You can see it here or I hope you can.
I just linked to my facebook page where I shared it.
*************
Thank you for all of your prayers.
 This means the world to Baby Reese's Mom, family and all her friends.
I kept my youngest grands yesterday while "May May" and 2 of her friends
went to visit Behki & Baby Reese in the hospital.  These girls amaze me. They are awesome Moms and are always there for each other.  My 3 year old grandson (Little D) and
I got on our knees and prayed for the baby.
This video is for you Behki!!!!

Please Pray!

This is Behki (my daughter, May May's friend) and my friend.
This is her at the Pinterest party back in November.
She was expecting a baby and we all were excited to find out what it was going to be.

Labor looks tough, huh?
What would we do without Iphones?
The fun thing is we all got to go through the labor with Behki
via facebook.  We have followed her through the pregnancy and we knew
exactly what was going on during labor thanks to facebook.
My 11 year old grandaughter even wrote a note to Behki to hurry up and have the baby.
She actually told her it was getting on her nerves!!! lol
I found out later that she had to go to bed before the baby was born.

It's a girl!!!
....Reese Ann Fuller!!!!
6 lb 8.9oz 19.5in.  9:09pm

She is just beautiful.
Since she has been born we have got to keep up with her through facebook.

Look at this.....so precious.

Big Brother & Sister love her!

Mother & Daughter
Behki put on one of her pics.....
"Could I love her anymore?...I think not."

Here is the baby today.
She is 3 weeks old
and is in the hospital. 
She is very, very sick.
She had to be airlifted to a childrens hospital.

Today they were able to put a feeding tube in but with lots of difficulty.
She is getting her mother's milk. What could be better?
But this little baby needs a miracle.
She needs lots of prayer.
Will you help me pray for Baby Reese???
And her Parents, Behki & Todd? And her grandparents?
Thank you all!

Isn't She Lovely?


"Sweet Teen" was one of the girls picked
to be on the Snowball Court at her school.
How do you like her shoes??
(smile)


Isn't there a song called..."Isn't she lovely"?

"Sweet Teen" is our oldest grandaughter and we are so proud of her.

Look at these gorgeous flowers that her date had for her.

There is no doubt that he had the most beautiful date!!!
(We can say that...we are her grandparents.)

Aren't they so cute?

Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she pretty?
Isn't she precious?
 ..............humming this song- can't remember all the words but..........
perfect words.....lovely, wonderful, pretty, precious......BLESSED.

WE LOVE YOU "SWEET TEEN!!"

Perfect love sometimes does not
come until the first grandchild.

Date Night At Home

Plans were suppose to be steaks on the grill, baked potatoes, & salad.
But LIFE happened and it ended up being hotdogs with slaw and cheese
and frozen french fries!!!!

We cuddled up on our couch together under a quilt and watched a movie.
Life is always so busy that we have to schedule time to be together.
We didn't even answer our phones!!!!
We want to do this more often.
Whether it is friendship or a marriage you have to nourish it.

I am usually doing my thing (computer or sewing)  and he is doing his thing
(watching hunting shows)!!!
But not tonight.....It was our date night at home!!!

We watched this movie and it was wonderful!
We both loved it. 
I have to tell you that last week we actually went to the movies with several others
and we went to see a movie that we heard was great. 
Well, it was terrible. The language was unreal.
We were all looking at each other but didn't know what to do.
After the movie and a lot of money spent, we all wished we had just walked out.
But we didn't know since we were with a group.
 Nobody wanted  to make the others uncomfortable.
But we were all talking afterwards and we know now that if we ever
go to another movie like that we will walk out.
I will never forget when we were dating, "Sweet Hunter" took me to a movie
and the language was so bad that he stood up and said, "lets go."
I fell in love with him that night. I just thought that was so respectful.
I heard someone say, well you just have to look over the cursing.
I don't want to look over it.  I don't want to hear it.
I don't want it in me.
*********************
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

He knows that I love Blueberry filled powdered sugar doughnuts!!!

On my birthday he gave me the money to buy a Kindle Fire but I think I am
