Shreveport LA

Had a great time in Shreveport. The food was amazing! We've found a great restaurant that serves the best food we've had in a long time. This has been our second visit to it. I ordered an appetizer as my main meal: flatbread with pesto, prime rib, argula, purple onions (thinly sliced) and sprinkled with olive oil. Guy had a steak, which we shared. Of course, after dinner we have to mingle with the other casino guests.
Thanks, Guy, for this win!

With Tragedy we share time with loved ones

Unfortunately, when tough times crop up, we find ourselves coming face to face with our own mortality. We thank God that He has given us ways to express our sadness with seeing the faces of the innocents, the ones we love, our family. During our time of mourning the passing of Pinky, we were able to visit and spend time with our loved ones. Children make our mourning less stressful. Below are pictures of Cody, Katy, a bit of fun, the Munguia's from El Paso, to name a few.

J. J. "Pinky" Davis, June 18, 2010

Guy's father, Pinky Davis, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 18th. We ask for prayers for his wife, Esther Ruth, Guy's siblings, Miki Denise and Michael Scott. Rest in peace Dad, and may you be jubilant in the rest you've found at the mercy seat of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We shall see you soon.

Summer Afternoon

Riding the bumper cars! Cody on the left and Katy on the right...trying to meet "head on"!
Cody, by far, the winner of bowling!
Another shot of Katy, before picking up that little bowling ball.

My orchid plant - new blooms!

Hope you like my blooms! from my poor, forgotten orchid plant...which I would water every once in a while. God is gracious in allowing us to enjoy such pure beauty.

Mitzcli watching TV

Papi, I'm telling you, Tiger's going to miss that putt.
What? I'm right, you know.

Guy's visit to Austin - Thursday, April 29

Chicken Fried Steak in Bastrop, Texas. Yummy. This is the "before" picture.
And, this is the "after" picture. Couldn't finish it. I'm so proud of you, Babe. One should always leave a little something on their plate.

Mitzcli and Bella - Part 2

Remember the song: "Love is in the air"? Consider this...2 cute dogs, one male, one female. Well, you do the math. ;)
Mitzcli in all his glory.
Bella, cute as a button.

Mitzcli Davis and Astro

Aah, this is the life...most definitely.
Mitzcli says, "What? I'm NOT doing anything! You always blame me!!!!" Astro says, "Hee, hee, my plan to take over your position as 'head of this household' is working! Soon, it will be ALL MINE!"

Mitzcli and Dad-dining

Okay, we can either talk about this or you can just let me have your food...NOW...no questions asked.
Uh, Dad, hello! I'm down here; could you please pass me a piece of whatever you're eating...doesn't matter what it is!

Astro on sunporch

Little Astro, after being outside all day (in her cage) decides it's time to come back in and sleep some more. She's lying on Mitzcli's bed...she loves to sleep there!
Sup, dawg? A little sunshine never hurt anybody!

Orchid on our sunporch

Found this orchid growing from a plant I received from work. Just left it alone; watered it every now and then. Wow! Look what God did for it!

Food and Pets - Good combination

"Mitzcli said to wait here because you may drop something on your lap for me to eat."
"Come on, just one piece?"
"Man, that tastes soooo good!"
"Look at the TV for just a second! Wait, Papi, I'll trade you my buddy for a taste. That way I won't have to steal it from you."

How Much They've changed!

Traveling from visit to Lake Charles, 2010

First day of school, 2009.

Lake Charles, backyard, at least four years ago.

King's Inn Visit

The family at King's Inn. Hope we can get more people to come the next time we meet. Food, needless to say, was great.

The gang in the weight room of the hotel after our putting contest.

Nice table, but who's it built for?

We walked in to Big Lots and noticed this really nice square table...only problem is IT WAS HUGE! So, I had to sit down and try it out. I felt like Lily Tomlin when she would do her skit where she sat in that huge rocking chair...
If I had to eat at this table, the plate would literally be chest high. Had to share this funny pic!

Happy Valentine's Day to all!

I just had to post this great picture of my mom and dad for Valentine's Day. I miss them soooo much. Be kind to your loved ones, because once they are gone, you can never get them back or say the things you want to say. I'm glad I had the time with them...the mistakes I made with them (some of which were hilarious) and the talks I had with them (one of which was they didn't want me to make mistakes but I said that I had to make mistakes, that that was the only way I would learn. Little did they know that just by their having that talk with me was all I needed. My dad always knew.;) My thanks to Esther for sending me this picture. She made me extremely happy!

Taps being played for Sweet Pigeon.

On Sunday, I heard something hit the glass door hard in our sunroom and noticed the cat being jumpy while glancing out the door. I went outside and noticed a poor pigeon who had run straight into the glass door! It was laying on its back...Guy's conclusion: its neck was broken. I picked it up...it was still alive and blood was coming out of its beak. I thought it would be okay, (this was before I knew it's neck might be broken) so I gently cradled it and took it inside and placed it on a towel that was in the garage. I then placed a plastic box over it with lots of holes to allow it to breathe. I went inside to get something (I don't know what) and upon returning -- which took me less than 5 minutes -- I found the poor bird had expired. I felt so bad. I dug a hole in the back yard and buried it there and then placed some protection over the "grave" so that nothing could dig it up (as in neighbor's cats!) I felt such sadness.
