    As you may know by now, my name is Bobbie. My real name is Barbara
    Ann, but I've always been called Bobbie. I was born & grew up in a very small rural
    area in Tennessee. I am very fortunate to have a big family. I have two sisters & four
    brothers & a great Mom & Dad! I have many many memories of my childhood years, all
    very precious to me. I quit school at age 16 & got married. ( I know, I know!! Pretty
    young, huh?) I did go back to school & get my high school diploma! :o) As for the
    marriage ......well, it's been 30 years now! :o) It hasn't always been a "bed of roses", but
    we're still here, we're still married, & we still love each other! :o) My husband,
    Arvil, was also born & grew up in the same area I did. We both love it here & will
    stay here, I suppose! We have one beautiful daughter, Jeannie, who is married now, so we
    also received a wonderful son, Troy! Troy had a son, Chris, when he & Jeannie married.
    Then Jeannie & Troy had two, Andrew & Chase! So we have three beautiful grandsons
    that we love dearly! They are the sunshine in Granny & Papa's lives! Chris lives in
    another state, so we don't get to see him that often, :o(  but we do see the other two just about every day. My
    favorite hobbies are Family Outings, Reading, Genealogy, Camping, &  the
    Computer! :o) I also love the ABC soaps. Am I boring you yet? lol
    
    Before I
    hush, I would like to say that God & my Family are the most important factors in my
    life. Friends are next! God has blessed me tremendously with Family & Friends! 
    ~ I am
    Blessed!~

    ~ My Hideaway ~
    
    With every flower in this land
    My life is filled with blooms
    That hides beyond a quiet place
    Where all my hopes do loom
     
    Though it's hard to see the door
    Hidden from your view
    The scent of lovely flowers
    Will surely beckon you
    
    You will
    find tomorrow
    Your dreams will all come true
    Joy will linger in your heart
    Peace will come to you
     
    Come and share my hideaway
    Follow sweetest path
    Everlasting beauty
    Love is yours at last.
