Holy Family School has a Fall Festival every year that serves as a huge fundraiser plus tons of fun for all the kids and adults as well. This year there was also an alumni dinner for all of Holy Family’s graduates….recent and not so recent! There is a special place in my heart for Holy Family because so many of my family members have attended. My parents both graduated in 1965. My mother’s mom, Phylis Curtis Miller graduated in 1942. My dad’s mother Delia Lemon Gallaher attended 1923 – 1934. As well as many cousins, aunts and uncles. In 1986 Holy Family High School closed and I was in the 8th grade so I graduated from St. Joe High School in Ironton, OH. And now my four children are enrolled in Holy Family School! It’s such a warm, kind and caring atmosphere, I cannot imagine them anyplace else.

Spent last week in Garden City, SC with the family. This is my crew on our last day there – Noah, Ava, Mason and Bella. They are smiling for the candy…not for us.

And the photo credit for this one goes to my brother Grayson. Chris and I did not even get Smarties for smiling.

spent yesterday evening in the ER with ava. apparently she has an allergy to cashews! she started coughing and itching and wheezing within about 5 minutes of eating them. within 1/2 hour her hands and face were swollen and she was starting to get welts all over her body. they started an iv and gave her some steroids, antihistamines and a breathing treatment and she was good as gold again! we were back home within two hours, like nothing ever happened. pretty scary stuff…she was an excellent little girl. sweet as can be.
