Shooting

April 22 - We finally got out to shoot the guns. From siting in the big 7mm mag, to polishing our handgun skills, to just simply having fun making a lot of noise - we had a great time!
Matt showing his style!
Deron not too bad at all!
Prestin deadly accurate!
A cheeky moment is always close by with Prestin!
Out came the mini!
Steve not too bad for an old guy!
Now for some big gun time!
Scope sited in... now hitting the plastic bottle at 100 yards!
Everyone got to shoot the big gun!
Great day with great guys!

A date to UGA

April 20 - With grandma at her day care center, Shellie & Steve took the opportunity to have a date... walking the lovely University of Georgia campus.
And who did they see? Matt & Deron were passing out invites to a free women's self defense class!
So we found ourselves hanging out with the ABBA crowd in Memorial Hall. Left to right - Heather, Randy, Deron, Graham and Matt.
Here's Shellie just at the Arches - the corner of College Street and Broad. This is a key entry point to UGA.
Another fantastic date that we had was spent painting ABBA's new extension - soon to be opened! Shellie has gone back several times and has become famous for her painting the trim! Way to go girl!!!

Colours of Spring

April - Over this past month we have made many trips to the Botanical Gardens of Georgia. Each time more and different colors were on God's display. Here is a sampling.
Shellie took all these photos, and posted without doing any photo-shopping!
