Title: Maybe This One Will Become A Trad Archer
Post by: ber643 on April 22, 2011, 05:09:00 PM
Born last night, our 5th Great Grandchild, boy baby, Tanner Lewis Valentine. Though a Month early, Tanner and mom (Haylei) are both doing beautifully. 5 lbs 10 ozs @ 18" (LOL), Tanner is wrapped in one of Rose's Baby Afghans - like she makes for the Annual St. Jude Auctions - being held by Rose, herself. More pics will be on My Facebook (of course).

Congrats to you Bernie and your family! Now remember, you have to wait at least until he's potty trained before you have him shooting with you. God Bless!

Thank you all so very much for your comments and good wishes. This one is a little more special (if that's possible) as it was a high risk pregnancy from the very first (wasn't supposed to happen) and almost came way too early a couple of times. However, at the end everything, not only went without a hitch, but it was relatively quick and with little or none of even the usual pain and worry. Thank you, Lord.

I accepted it (gladly) today and checked out your page a little. I was pretty sure about the FD. I think a friend of yours sent in some and said they were of him and his friend, Pon. I think you guys were hunting birds  with bows or shooting aerials to get ready for a bird hunt.
