Exciting Sunday

Isaac bought a Mustang, Aran caught an armadillo, and Dave and I got to ride 4-wheelers for the first time. Woo-hoo!Aran brought his captive to church for everyone to see (rare to see a live one!) before releasing it. See the end of the post for some video (if you are on Facebook, go to the blog. gervens.blogspot.com)

Load 'em up!

What a view! Cindy has more pics on her blog. Pulaski4.blogspot.com. I couldn't steal all of hers for some reason.

Video #1 - Aran's attempt at letting the armadillo go.

Video #2 - Dave getting the job done. After a stint under the van, he eventually wandered into the thicket (the armadillo....not Dave) :)

We got our first box packed

Chewie wants to make sure we're taking her with us. Closing is set for the 31st and we are both looking forward to living in a neighborhood where we ARE the white trash. :)

Happy Early Birthday, Mrs Sandi!

We had a few treats Wednesday night in honor of Mrs. Sandi's birthday.
This ought to last her a week or so. ;)

Riding Lesson #3

We had our boots this time so you know they made us ride better!
Bella was stylin' in her getup

We switched this week so Bella rode Abe and I rode Reed. Bella had great control with Abe and even got him to trot which was more than I could do the previous week!

Reed can be described as Tigger while Abe is more of an Eeyore so I had my hands full! Just clear your throat and he's ready to break into a lope. :)

Ditto!

After church we all headed over to Ditto Landing for a ride on the Pulaski's boat.

Couldn't resist snapping a pic of Andrew in shorts and flip-flops. This is quite possibly the first time I've ever seen him without boots on.

Cap'n Jake. Argh.

Let's set sail! Josh and Buck.

Jacob

Mom and Dad chillin' in the cabin.

Andrea on the "upper deck." :)

Dad and Andrew heading back to pick up more people.

They dropped the first load of us off at a picnic area that we found out later was on Arsenal property. Oops!

The old numbered buildings should have given us a hint.

Fire up the grill!

Jacob and Joshua had never been tubing before. They only got dumped twice I think. Not bad!

Man overboard!

Thanks for the tour of the Tennessee river and for dinner! We had a great time.

Here's some tubing video. If you're on Facebook, go to the blog (gervens.blogspot.com)

Lazy Saturday

Street preaching got rained out so we met at Mom and Dad's for pizza and a sing-a-long of sorts.It was great to see Buck and Sheena again.

Buckshot had to wear mom's reading glasses to preach Sunday since he didn't bring a pair.
