Time to Catch Up

It has been a long time since I updated this blog. A lot of things have happened over the past several months. Both Kyle and Nate graduated in May. Kyle from high school and Nate from Kindergarten. Kyle was Salutatorian at Campbell High School. We are so proud of him! He is now attending Lyon College in Batesville, Arkansas. He is playing baseball there.

Nate is now a first grader and doing great in school. He has recently lost his front two teeth. He loves video games (like his big brother) and is involved in church activities and Tiger Scouts.

We had a great summer and are now looking forward to fall. We have one more camping trip planned for next weekend. Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all! Here is my chance to brag on my family. We are all doing great and enjoying our Christmas vacation.

Wade is on vacation this week with us. We have finished our shopping and are now waiting for Santa to arrive tomorrow night. We celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary on Saturday. Wade is an awesome husband and father! We are very blessed to have him as the godly leader of our home.

Kyle has been accepted to Lyon College in Batesville, Arkansas and has received a scholarship to play baseball for them. He had the opportunity to meet Blake Dewitt last weekend in Cape.

Nathaniel (Nate as he's known at school) is doing great in kindergarten. He is reading 2nd grade level books. We are very proud of both of our boys.

We want to wish all our friends and family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May God richly bless you throughout the holiday season and the coming year.

Final Camping Trip of the Season

Please let me know you have visited our blog. I hope you enjoy the pictures of the boys and the family pictures.

We went camping over the Columbus Day weekend and we had a great time! We rode bikes, played mini golf, dominoes, Candy Land and just had a relaxing weekend. (Papa Howard won the golf game.) Aunt LaDonna and Jordan came over on Sunday and we had a good time visiting with them.

What's New

Nathaniel (Nate) is doing great in kindergarten! He likes school and is having fun learning. His favorite part of school is P.E. (I don't know where he gets that! His big brother and daddy don't like sports at all!) At church he has started practicing for the Christmas Program and he really likes his new Sunday School teacher, Ms. Dana.

Kyle is busy with school and baseball. He is taking two college courses along with his high school classes. He is a senior and has started thinking a little about colleges. He has stayed busy this month playing fall baseball. He has played several different positions, including 3rd base, short stop, pitching and catching. He loves the game wherever they put him.

Wade and I are both teaching Sunday School classes this year. Wade is teaching an adult class and I am teaching 2nd and 3rd grades. We stay busy with church, work and school activities, but we like to go camping when we get a chance.
