May we all remember why we are free,
and remember those who keep us free.
Yes...this is me...
Thanks for stopping by to see me. Kick your shoes off, grab a drink, and stay awhile!
I'm 27 years old, and married with two kids. I've been married for 7 years, to Ricky, and my children are Brenna who is 12,
and Blake who is 10.
My chat buds know me as LilCountryHoney, or "Lil" as most of them call me, but my real name is Amber.
We live in a small town in West Virginia, the Mountain State.
Country Roads, Take Me Home!
We have been trying to conceive our first biological child together for 6 years, and so far we haven't had much luck. But I know that some day soon we will have our special little baby.
I am now on a medication called Glucophage , and hopefully this will help make things a little easier for us.
I started taking Glucophage in May 2002, and thankfully it seems to be working wonders for me! If you would like information on Glucophage, feel free to email me and let me know! I have also currently been diagnosed with PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) and I have finished a page that is about my journey with PCOS. Click here to learn more about PCOS .
We have a Pug named Zoie, who is 5 years old. We also have a male Pug, his name is Willie,who is 3 Years old. Go to my pug page to see their pics!
Go here to visit my Pug Page!
We also own our own paintball field and sports shop, Tri-County Paintball and Field Sports, located in Evans WV.
We also have a new Webpage up for our business...you can go here to see it. Also check out our brand new DISCUSSION FORUM!!!
(And you have "Yours Truly" as your humble moderator *S*)
You can usually find me at ParenthoodPlace chatting with my buds. You should come and visit sometime! Drop by the boards too!
You will find many caring and supportive people, as well as many different family situations, and just plain ol' fun! Come by sometime. I guarantee, you wont want to leave.
And best of all, its parent and kid friendly!
A Little About Me:
My hobbies are reading, playing on the Web, posting at PHP, taking care of our Business and its website, and Karaoke!
I love Karaoke! It is sooooooooooooo much fun!
I have recently started operating the Karaoke system every Wednesday and Saturday night out at Shep's Bar on Rt. 2 in Millwood. Come out and join in the fun! We always have a great time, and there are lots of really nice people. Wednesday nights are also Ladies Night! So don't miss out on the fun.
I have two kids, two pugs, (They have their own page) and two cats!
This is Rascal. He is my old buddy. Rascal is a VERY old cat...about 20 years old. I have had him since I was a little kid..and he's got a very special place in my heart.
(See April? I told you he's still alive....LOLOL *inside joke between my sister and I*) Rascal is so old, that he only has 1 fang left, and all his other teeth are gone. He still eats hard catfood tho, and refuses to eat soft canned food. He LOVES tomatoes, spaghetti sauce, and icecream. He can still see, hear, (selectively I might add, quite well, especially when I am telling him to get off the counters) and he still even gets a little kittenish and runs like crazy thru the house. LOL!
This is Maverick. Whenever you get out the camera he thinks its time to rub on everything. Out of about 10 shots, this is the only one I could get that came out half decent. Maverick is 9 1/2 years old, and pretty much keeps to himself. But when he wants rubbed, he lets you know it!

Attack on America
This day all Americans shared a tragic loss, as two planes crashed into the World Trade Center towers in New York City, and into the Pentagon in Washington D.C., driven by terrorist madness and evil.
Another crashed into the ground in Pennsylvania, taken over by the planes passengers from the terrorists who had hijacked them. They crashed it into the ground, perishing themselves and giving their lives, to save others on the ground.
May God see us through this horrible time,
and may God bless us all.
This candle burns for all the victims, their families, rescue workers, and the Nation, and for all the soldiers overseas, in remembrance of the loss, and for the love of our Great Country.
I pledge allegiance
To the flag,
of the United States of America.
And to the Republic,
For which it stands,
One Nation,
Under God,
Indivisible,
With liberty, and justice,
For all.
Our Nation mourns for the loss of all the victims, for their families, for the heroic rescue workers who risked their lives to save others, the rescue workers who worked so diligently to help, and for the heroes in our military who will defend our Great Nation.
God Bless You all, you have our prayers, and God Bless America!
This is Ricky and I,
taken a few years ago.
We look about the same, just older now!
Here we are at our wedding, September 28, 1996
Thanks to my sister, April, for the funky glasses!
Here's the whole wedding party, from left to right:
Amanda King Shaffer, Adrienna Moore Harless, April Carson (my sister), (down in front) Brenna Jo Garnes, Me, Ricky, Wade "Red" Clinton, (down in front) Blake Ryan Garnes, Tommy Waybright, and Steve Shaffer
This is a good shot of my train on my gown...it was a 10 foot train, cathedral length, hand decorated by my Mom and sister April, with baby pearls, seed pearls, and sequins. It also had an outline of pearls all the way around the edge. Then it was sprayed with adhesive, and sprinkled with iridescent glitter. This thing was so heavy!
Want to know a secret? It was$4.60 lace table cloth! ROFL!
And here comes pictures of my munchkins! You didn't think you could get away with not seeing my kids did you?
This is Blake Ryan, at 14 days old
This is Brenna Jo at 1 month old
Heres a pic of Brenna and Blake, my children, on Easter a few years ago. They are both SO tall now! I can't believe how time flies!
This is a pic of Blake, 8 years old, 2nd Grade
This is a pic of Brenna, age 10, in her soccer uniform.
5th Grade
And here they are together, Brenna age 10, Blake age 8,
Spring 2002.
They are so big now, how time flies.
It doesn't seem possible that they can be so big!
Here is Brenna's 2003 Spring Picture
She's now in the 6th grade, and has a 3.8 GPA
She's growing into such a lovely young lady, and her Father and I are very proud of her. She also plays flute, and plays Soccer. She has a wonderful writing ability, and has written many poems. Pretty soon, we will have to be breaking out the shotgun, to keep the boys away!
Brenna was promoted to the 7th Grade, with a final GPA of 3.75. She is spending her summer bathing in the sun, swimming, and just having a ball! She's also found a new passion....PAINTBALL! Oh no..we've created our own monster!
Brenna is now 12 years old, and going into the 7th grade. Its a brand new school year, with whole new experiences.
And here he is, Blake Ryan 2003.
Blake is now in the 3rd grade, and is on the A Honor Roll. He loves to fish, and draw pictures. He is a very talented artist.
He also loves to read about sharks and dolphins. We are very proud of Blake, and can't believe how big he is becoming. He is growing into a handsome little guy, with ALOT of personality. He is very outspoken, (gee, I wonder who he got that from??? LOL! *looking innocent*) and likes to play Nintendo, and likes to watch "Samauri Jack" and "G Gundom".
Blake always brings me freshly picked flowers everyday on his walk home from school. He is my special little man. :) If he keeps those long eyelashes and that winning smile, we are going to be beating the girls off of him with a stick.
Blake was promoted to 4th Grade...with a final GPA of 3.6. He is spending his summer fishing, playing outside, catching crawdads and worms, and basically getting dirty. He too, has found the fun in Paintball!
Blake is now 10 years old, and getting ready to go into 4th grade.
I heard this song, Godspeed, and it hit so close to my heart, that I was moved to tears. This song is something that every parent will understand if they hear it.

First Verse of "The West Virginia Hills"
Oh, the West Virginia hills!
How majestic and how grand.
With their summits bathed in glory,
Like our Prince Immanuel’s land!
Is it any wonder then,
That my heart with rapture thrills,
As I stand once more with loved ones
On those West Virginia hills!
O the hills, Beautiful hills,
How I love those West Virginia hills.
If o’er sea or land I roam
Still I think of happy home.
And the friends among the West Virginia Hills.
Country Roads (Take Me Home) by John Denver
(This is West Virginia's State Song)
Almost Heaven,
West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains
Shenandoah river
Life is old there,
older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
blowin' like a breeze
Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain Mama
Take me home, country roads
All my memories
gather round her
Miner's lady
stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty
painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
teardrop in my eyes
Country roads
take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain Mama
Take me home country roads
I hear a voice in the morning
how she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should been home yesterday
Yesterday....
Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia Mountain Mama
Take me home country roads
Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia Mountain Mama
Take me home country roads
Take me home country roads
Take me home country roads.
Pugs are Angels in disguise.
Faith is...
Stepping out into the darkness,
and knowing you will either
have something to stand on...
or you will find wings to fly.
I am a PROUD West Virginian!
I LOVE PUGS
