Thanks for your prayers!!! Yes, mama was in a real mess. She's completely healed from that. But, you should have seen her. I'm just glad she figured out that it was the detergent. No more home-made soaps for her! We are certainly enjoying the lake....the flowers, the water, neighbors and all. Lidia was kneeboarding on the lake at our house...she caught on so quickly. Sawyer has been loving his bike. We are on a hill and he rides up and down the driveway a few times, rests and then repeats. Ha! Loving making these memories with them. Talk soon, Lynne!Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569684144657934330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-284188381082334916.post-83064828302419718692015-06-01T21:08:04.971-04:002015-06-01T21:08:04.971-04:00A little training here, a little there and all of ...A little training here, a little there and all of a sudden I can ride 30 miles. I've been training conservatively because I know all too well the alternative. I've feel victim to overkill training for half marathons. Thanks for your encouraging words.

It will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you'll treasure forever. I think having goals and working toward them is one thing that keeps us young.

I know you will do just great in the Women's Tour and I will be pulling for you and praying too! I think one of the first posts I ever read of yours was about a bike trek you took--a not so uneventful one, so I hope you will all stay safe and sound. I tried to get caught up a little on your blog posts and when I read about your poor Mama's plight with the laundry detergent I felt so sorry for her because she was in a real mess, for sure. Your pictures of Georgetown are very pretty. The last time I went to Georgetown was with my dad, some 45+ years ago and this brought back some of that time. It sound like you are loving your place at Lake Greenwood and it is no wonder because the pictures you have been posting are beautiful. That sunset is breathtaking. Your peony is very pretty! Don't they have a fabulous fragrance? It must have been a bad year for peonies because my bush had one solitary bloom this year too! Were the kids kneeboarding on the lake at your house? Lidia was so cute and she really was killing that wake! I know you are so proud of those two grands, with good reason. It is good to see you all are making those beautiful memories together. Laurie, I hope you will have a fabulous week, sweet friend!lynn cockrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250601457878656085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-284188381082334916.post-91301164668537579082015-05-30T21:04:08.907-04:002015-05-30T21:04:08.907-04:00Whew- I am already tired just from lacing my shoes...Whew- I am already tired just from lacing my shoes up to get ON the bike.
