AND NOW! THE ANNOUNCEMENT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!

The birth of my California cousin - JOSHUA DAVID WARBRITTON!

Let's here it for the big guy!

New born. 8 pounds, and nineteen and a half inches long.

I think his daddy Dave is proud of him.

A healthy bouncing baby boy!

Psalm 139: 13-17

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous -- and how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God! They are innumerable!

Thank you Lord for a safe and healthy delivery and a safe and healthy Mom. We have joy in our hearts.

Mr Bennett Busby Phillips is a real charmer.

Of Course, There Are the Original Two

The original pair have been a treasure for the last twenty-plus years. This is a precurser to let them know that I haven't forgotten them- I'm just having trouble finding early photos and I'm having scanner problems to boot. These are the original two, Kristofer and Taylor, and oh what fun we have had over the years.

On a day trip to the top of Pilot Mountain (Or as Andy used to say "Mount Pilot") near Mount Airy NC, better known as "Mayberry" to most of you. Around thirteen years ago; my how the time flies.

 Taylor was first and Kris was not far behind- though not bro and sis, they have always acted like it. This was a vacation into the NC mountains six years ago.



This was in the mountains overlooking Golden, CO two years ago when Kris graduated from High School. The old guy is me and of course Kris' dad Darren is at my side.Seems like most of these pics are on mountaintops, and that's the way it is with your grandkids, mountaintop experiences.

 The beautiful Miss Tay on the occasion of her twenty-first birthday.

Kris' graduation from high school in Colorado Springs was a happy occasion for all.

Cherise, Kristofer, and Darren are all smiles.

Though CC and I moved almost a year and a half ago, I still have boxes of photos tucked away in the garage. Who knows what secrets will be revealed at their discovery. I bet you can't wait.

Hope You are Having a Good Day!

Bennett Busby is having a great day!
