Summertime Reading

I decided since I wasn't busy building a house or planning a wedding this summer, I would read!!

I love Jennifer Weiner so I picked this book up. Once I saw it was about addiction, I had to read it.
I've been reading Janet Evaonvich for years and even though they are getting redundant at book twenty. I still read. 
I've had this book for years and I've never picked it up. I really liked it. It's about a lady and her husband tries to kill her by throwing her overboard during their cruise. She swims to safety and sets out to get revenge. At the same time she is falling for the guy who rescues her. 
Very good young adult novel about a boy with a deformed face and the challenges he faces. 
LOVE this book!! Can't wait to see the movie. 
I went to church with Adam Brown. I never really knew him, but my mom was and his parents knew each other. I've been wanting to read this book and finally purchased it through my Kindle App. Adam Brown was a Hot Springs boy who got mixed up with the wrong crowd and drugs in high school. Once he hit rock bottom he decided he was going to become a Navy Seal. Life was still hard and he encountered a few slip ups, but he found true love and God helped him overcome. This is a story of his courage and sacrifice for our country. I read it in two days and cried the whole way through. My brother had the same struggles with drugs in Hot Springs and our family endured some of the same heartaches. 

School starts soon with two weeks of professional development, so I'm  glad I got some summer reading but before life becomes hectic.

Football Merchandise

A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

Floating the Caddo River

We floated the Caddo River with some friends Saturday. The scenery was beautiful and the water was flowing nicely. It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
