Christmas with the Snyders

We enjoyed a great visit with Pops, Mimi, Maw Maw, Aunt Bonnie, Mike, Michael, and Brittany on Sunday. We are so thankful for all of them and feel so blessed by their love and generosity. The highlight of the visit was the engagement of Michael and Brittany!!! Michael proposed to Brittany during our gift opening time as a family and it was so exciting for all of us! We are thrilled for both of you and can't wait until the BIG DAY!!! We love all of you and look forward to a happy year ahead!!

Meteor Shower

So.....I love it when the Lord shows up in a BIG way.....well this entire year of Science we are studying Astronomy....and during the exact week we studied space rocks (i.e. comets, meteors, and asteroids) the Lord sent the biggest meteor shower of the year! The best viewing was around 2 am so we set our alarm clocks and woke up early to go outside and see the "shooting stars." It was so beautiful to watch and confirm for the girls that our planet, solar system and universe is all designed by an amazing God!!

 a little fuzzy....but shows the girls viewing the meteors....

of course we got some Krispy Kreme's earlier in the day and saved them for our snack

Miss Gilcrease's Wedding

Our family had the honor of attending the wedding of Claire's 3rd grade teacher from last year, Miss Gilcrease! We've been looking forward to it for months and were so thrilled to enjoy this special time with her and Jarrad. We honor and commend the influence Miss Gilcrease had on Claire and Camdyn at Southside last year and couldn't be more excited for her as she and Jarrad begin their new lives together! We love you Mrs. Kalinovich!!!
