2014-New Year...New Blog!

Welcome to our new family blog! Two blogs were too much to keep up with and I've been really, really bad at keeping up with everything. I hope to do a better job from now on...

So the latest and greatest from our boys! Where to even begin!

Taylor is playing Basketball this Winter at our church. He is playing Upward and really enjoys the game...he is playing with some of his baseball buds s! Baseball practice also started, so it's a busy time. He is doing really well in first grade and loves the independence that it brings!





Cole will be trying out for the ECHS 9th grade baseball team in the morning....praying he makes the team, but even if not it will be good exposure for next year. Can you believe he will be in high school next year! I'm really excited to see him each day at school (secretly I think he is excited too!)



(This is Cole at the skateboard park/BMX track in Peachtree City---skateboarding is Taylor's new thing (besides his sports) and Cole tags along to ride his bike)



Sweet girl will be 10 months old on Wednesday! Oh how I love this sweet girl! I just want time to stand still....like now!!!

Kevin and I are staying busy with work and raising our crew! The boys are a mess...and sweet girl is a Princess ;) She's saying Mama and Dada and Bubba and ....ea...ea.. for eat! HA! She'll be my good eater! Baseball has started back up for Taylor so that has been a little hectic with basketball season in swing....Cole hasn't officially started so we haven't gotten FULL CRAZY just yet!

I am leading a women's small group study at church on Wednesday nights...it's been GREAT to study ways to be more thankful in our lives and learning to trust God with what He is doing in our lives (both the seen and unseen). Plus, I'm blessed to have some really wonderful Christian women to call friends! It's been great sharing with them and growing with them. We all call it our "therapy" sessions! HA! But I am so thankful that He is writing my story....that means I don't have to worry about the next chapter that is coming...He is already there! So grateful for His love, mercy and most importantly His Grace! I'm trying very hard to extend that same grace to those around me more.....

Happy 2014. Check back often on our blessings....God's doing great works in them too ;)





Christmas 2013---the year we all (except baby girl) had the FLU!!!!
