Carruthers' Corner

In finally did it! I gathered the family around the computer desk for that final click of the mouse... the one that sent my last paper that I will ever send to Asbury Seminary for my MDiv degree. Joy took me (and the kids of course) out to Mama George's for supper in Norton to celebrate. I also watched the first episode of The Tick. Very funny. I look forward to talking to Ryan about it.

I wasn't sure if everyone had a picture or not. However, I thought we should post this on here. We don't ususally have a pic of everyone, let alone with Grandma too.

Jamie

For the record, the Carruthers Kids had a great reunion last month. Team Jamie beat Team Troy in softball, but there in a pending investigation regarding issues of cheating on the part of Team Jamie. There was also lobster and a special Dukes movie--a Carruthers' kids paradise! And none of us will forget Tyson and Lisa taking us all out on the new boat (by 'all' I mean all who wanted to). In fact, it was all so good that everyone gets a t-shirt to commemorate the event. Thanks Jen for all your work in making it happen.

Here are my top 10 moments of the reunion:
10. Luke Duke's heart-breaking reunion with country star Anita Blackwood
9. Swimming with Ryan and Matt in the contaminated Saint John River
8. Ham!
7. Mom's "Muggle" t-shirt--great gift idea Ryan!
6. Seeing ground balls turn into home runs
5. Lisa's pancakes (they really hit the spot that first morning)
4. Talking movies with Ryan
3. Finding the key for the Maxwell cottage
2. Finding the Maxwell cottage
1. Making s'mores with the fam. I'll never forget watching Leah's face after she had her first roasted marshmallow.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some important ones, but feel free to add to this.
