This picture is taken from the window in Allison's room. That large white slab is in the center of common ground we share with the neighbor behind us and to the right of this picture. I was planning to put a garden and small shed back there.  Posted by Picasa

Basket Ball court DEBATE~

Hey. Sorry my page hasn't been updated in a while. Here's why! I awoke wednesday morning to the sound of a cement truck in the rear of our property. Apparently a neighbor of ours took it upon themselves to pour this HUGE basketball court in the MIDDLE of the common area in the rear of our house that we share. As you might imagine I was LIVID. I spent the entire day on the phone calling everyone I could think of to get this taken care of. Well come to find out that property is still technically owned by the developer. The neighbor told me she got permission from him to do it. Well I called him and he had no idea. Nor did she get permission from the furtre Homeowners association. I've pretty much been completely devoted to the cause of getting this thing torn out.. CAN YOU IMAGINE@!!! This court is now directly behind the kitchen window and the picture is from Allison's upstairs window. I confronted her about it and her "reasoning" was that to her it was a good idea for her kids and they miss their basket ball and she saw it as a "beautification" process of the common grounds!!!!!! Did I Mention that she NEVER said anything to anyone about doing this. I told her I was not happy that I didn't even get to voice an opinion about the court before hand. She told me and I quote......" OH well, it's already poured now. THere's nothing we can do about it"... BOY DOES SHE NOT KNOW WHO she's dealing with!


TO: Mr. Bob Reiner
(Landowner and Developer of the Forked Creek Community located in Hernando, MS)

We, the undersigned homeowners of the Forked Creek Community, are concerned about the construction of a basketball court being built on common grounds behind the residence of 220 Forked Creek Parkway & 830 Amanda Cove. Our understanding is that this project was constructed without the permission of you. Also the homeowner’s in the community were not informed of this project in advance and were not allowed to vote for or against it. The covenants for this community clearly state “no boisterous activity in or around the common areas” For these reasons we agree that this project is not in the best interest of the residence of the Forked Creek community. We would like for the party who is responsible for the construction of the basketball court project to stop construction immediately and remove all concrete and construction materials from the common grounds. Also, please inform the party responsible the proper channels to follow the next time they feel it necessary to undertake such an endeavor on their own.

Thank you for your time.

Happy Fourth! Hope everyone had a great time Posted by Picasa

July 4th festivities. We went to Snowden Grove park and saw the Fireworks display. Had a good time after we found a spot to sit out of the ant piles. Posted by Picasa

Looks like we're in the projected path of Dennis. Hope Peter and Nathan make it safely home.  Posted by Picasa

Pineville Trip

Well we made another trip to Pineville. Visited with Nanny and Papa and Grandma and Grandpa Miller. Kids had a great time despite the fact that there is a very LARGE elephant drinking water out of Grandpa's pool. Mom doing fine after her colonoscopy. We also finally made that trip to the "Whiskey Chitto" river on our canoe trip. First time we've ever done it with kids and they were troopers. We were on the river for close to five hours and despite the heat and the crowd managed to pass a good time. Grandpa had the most fun and was the one with the most energy at the end. Enjoy the pics
