Pizza & School

Excited! My first lunch at school with my beautiful daughter. I had pizza, salad and mashed potatoes. I've missed school lunches. NOT! It was fun watching all the kids and the teachers. I really don't remember being that loud at lunch time. My sister also came to eat lunch with her little ones. So the six of us sat in the back at a corner table. It was pretty cool. I plan on making this my Friday afternoon date with Coral.


So proud of my little girl

HAPPY 12TH BIRTHDAY DEVON

Happy Birthday Dev-O. We love and miss you tons. I remember being with you at your spiderman birthday seven years ago. Time passes. Your growing up a very handsome man. We hope your day is filled with lots of love and tons of hugs.


First Day of Kindergarten

WOW! We did it. We have sent our baby girl off to the real world. For the last 5 and half years we have taught Coral what we thought was best. We showed Coral how to have a kind heart, to be a friend to everyone, to have manners, to be a person not only she can love but a person everyone can count on. To hold her head up high and be proud of who she is. I watched her walk into the classroom with pride and within a few seconds was holding hands with a new friend. Everything Curtis and I worked so hard to do seemed so easy to her. I know with God by our side and Jesus in her heart, our little girl was going to be fine. We love you Coral Courtney.





Curtis and Brian got to together to show a little school spirit.

Our busy day in West Palm

We headed down south today for a visit with friends and family. Maybe a little fun also. Canyon starts pre-school on Monday and Coral Kindergarten in a week. One more day of summer before school starts. We found a little water park and had a blast.

Chason and daddy loving each other.


This is the first real slide; both Coral and Canyon have been on. It started slow with the open yellow one. Within an hour both were flying down in the dark.

Canyon flying out of big blue with no time for a picture. Just a sweet face

Coral coming out of big blue laughing the whole time. She tells me now, "I can sleep with no lights on now." My baby girl is getting so big. Also today she did a front flip off the diving broad. GO CORAL

After the day at the park we headed down town for a visit with Grammie. I love this women. She'll be 80 next year and still kicking hard. As you can see her favorite color is and will always be PINK. We had a truely wonderful visit with Grammie.


Chason had a blast running up to grammie giving her hugs and tagging on her to watch him show off. It was so sweet.


The kids really enjoyed the visit. Canyon wanted to keep getting into grammie food and Coral thought it was cool how grammie's favorite color is PINK.


Our last stop was a night out with Benny and Roberta. It was great spending some time with friends.

As we stand together now we know a sister's love not only comes from the WORD "SISTER". I truly respect the women you have become, a Godly women, a wise wife, a loving daughter, a patience mother, an amazing aunt and a forgiving sister. I love you Jennifer thank you for calling yourself my big sister.
