Night Fishing in the Gulf

Bradley caught this stingray

This is one of the many catfish we caught.

Hurricane Ike

We are in Panama City, FL and the waves are high because of Ike. The wind is really strong too. There is no beach today. The water is almost coming up to the pools. It's very exciting!!

Six Flags

We went to Six Flags yesterday with the Davis Family. Our kids had the best time. Samuel is all about roller coasters.....Dave, not so much! So I rode the Ninja with Samo. I am not crazy about big roller coasters but I went with Samuel......We were on the ride, almost to the top before the big fall when I started thinking about the fact that I was on this big scary ride with my baby. I reached over and touched his leg and told him to just hold his head still. Then I screamed my head off for the entire ride. When the ride was over He was so excited saying "Mommy that was awesome, can we do it again?". The girls liked the water slide area the best. They all love the Davis kids, so doing anything with them is fun. It was a nice day all around.....thanks Eric and Alicia for inviting us.

My blog has a new look and a new name

If you have read my blog for long you know I like to change things around. I rearrange furniture all the time too. I just like to change things up. But I think I have found the new look for my blog that I really like. I have been trying to come up with a cute name for my blog. I was talking to a friend earlier tonight about a book I really love. Keep a Quiet Heart by Elisabeth Elliott. So it hit me tonight, what better name for my blog than that. So that is the new name. I love my last name, but its kinda boring as the title.

Dave is at the first football game tonight. I hope that goes well. We will go with him next week. Samo said he wanted to goto that "flitball" game. I love the way he says some of his words. This is my favorite time of year. Fall is approaching which means Christmas will be around the corner. I love the fall leaves and the chill in the air around mid October. There is so much anticipation of what is to come this time of year. Lots of party's and hanging out with friends, which our family loves to do.

NEW NAME

OK. Maybe someone can help me. I want to rename my blog. The Swinney's is just such a boring title. So please if some of you creative minds could give me some suggestions on what I may rename this place I come to journal. Thanks.....Lisa
