Claire's 8th Birthday

Okay, really?! Claire is 8?!!

We simply cannot say how much we love and admire this girl. Claire, we love you so much and are so proud of the young lady you have grown up to be. As you continue to learn and grow we promise that we will do all we can to love and support you. We love the way you love Jesus, pray for others, are quick to confess your sin, protect and teach your little sister, read aloud so beautifully, and love playing with others.

Claire asked to take a day trip to Atlanta to the Georgia Aquarium and the World of Coca-Cola for her birthday.

Happy Birthday sweet girl! We love you to pieces!!!!!

Citadel Friends Weekend

We had so much fun this past weekend.....being on the water with good friends and good food! We are so thankful for all of you!! We don't need to let it be that long again before we get together again! :)

Field Trip Wednesdays (Part 3)

Last week was the final Wednesday of field trips. I traveled to Roper Mountain Science Center again but this time with Camdyn's class. They attended programs on healthy eating, taking care of your body, and taking care of your teeth. In one of the sessions, Camdyn got to play the nurse and practice taking a puppet's temperature! So cute! We had a wonderful day together! I love you Camdyn!!

Field Trip Wednesdays (Part 2)

Yesterday, I went with Claire's class to Roper Mountain Science Center. Her class participated in a weather program where they made coke bottle tornadoes and then an alligator lego program where they constructed alligators out of legos, hooked them to the computer and developed a program language to make the alligator have sounds and movements! It was a really fun day!! I love you Claire and I love being able to spend this time with you!

Kristen's Shower

One of my dearest and oldest friends, Kristen, is expecting her first baby girl in May! Even though we haven't lived in the same town since college I consider her one of my true friends. :) I am so excited for her and what a little girl brings to the family! Lots of pink, princesess, and fun fun fun!! :)
Your shower was beautiful and it was wonderful to see you and Liz. Love you girls!!
Love you KB!!!!

Field Trip Wednesdays

For the next three Wednesdays I will be hanging out with Claire and Camdyn for class field trips. This past week we visited Vulcan Materials company. We learned about rocks, toured their rock "pit" and got to bring back some rocks of our own! Next week I am headed to Roper Mountain Science Center with Claire's class! Pictures to come soon!!

Pinewood Derby

The girls and Nate spent last week working on their Pinewood Derby cars for their Adventure Princesses group. They took a field trip to Pop Pop's house and cut out their cars, painted and decorated them, and then finished it off with wheels and axles. The races were last night. The field was competitive and both girls fared very well. Claire's car came in 8th place! Needless to say, Pop Pop and Nate took notes on how to make improvements for next year!! So much fun!!
