Hanging out with Thomas

Thomas came home for a few days, so we all got together to hear him tell us about some "Navy" stories!! He is making us all so proud! He is now in Norfolk, VA and will be out on his ship by July. I can't believe the youngest of all us grandkids is serving!! Another great thing that is happening in our family is that we should have another cute baby girl soon!! Layken will be born sometime in April and we couldn't be happier for John and Ashley!! Congratulations you guys!!

She is turning one.....

She is turning one...I can't believe it!! I couldn't love or be more thankful for this sweet little girl in my life! I love you baby Sophia...please stay ONE forever!!

The Ketner's

This is Tyler, Nicole, and Lincoln Ketner. Tyler is one of our first kids in our first youth group almost 10 years ago!! We have always stayed in contact with him and he is very special to us! He married sweet Nicole about a year and a half ago and they got pregnant soon after! So this is 5 month old Lincoln. Isn't he the sweetest!! His eyes are beautiful and he is so fun! We got together to take some family pics the other day and I had so much fun with all of them! Thank you Tyler and Nicole for letting me take some pictures of your sweet little family! I had a blast!

Pixie Chicks Soccer Team 2011

We had our first game yesterday and it couldn't have been more beautiful! The girls played hard and had a fun time. We lost but I can tell they are working hard!! Thanks to Mitch Hughes for coaching!! He does so well with the girls and they love him! Papa got to come and watch Kyla play and she was so excited! Love this all girl team!

My wonderful friend Nicole!!

This is my sweet friend Nicole. She is one of the most special people in my life! We've been friends for about 7 or 8 years now and she still makes me smile, think, and surprise me with her personality!! I love her for who she is and how she is with me and so many other people in her life. She has a BIG heart, a smart brain, and of course a goofiness that only she can pull off! She is a nurse, a daughter, a sister, a lover of the Lord, a grandaughter, a reader, and most importantly to me MY FRIEND!! I love you Nicole!!
