Beach Trip 3

I had to add this video of Addison at the pool last year. I hope it works. I couldn't stop laughing!

Atley was doing a cover for her biograophy. She wrote "trampoline" but put hearts between each letter.

Reunions are such a blessing. Uncle Pete and Aunt Karen drove all the way from the great state of Texas. It was so wonderful to see them and spend the week with them. We just love them so much!

Yup. Time to hit the waves.

Karen having a reflective moment on the beach. Or maybe she is just standing there  looking for shells. There were so many this year.


It was so nice to just hang around and relax in the living room together. We did watch Les Miserables one night. What a powerful movie. I think I will watch it again. What a story of redemption.

It's already July 2017!

It is already July but I am putting in the last quarter again. Maybe this is turning into a quarterly update!  This quarter included our family trip to the Outer Banks. It was so great to see everyone. Then we drove to Atlanta. And life in-between.  Wet suits were not even a necessity on this trip! Sunny days and warmer water! I even went swimming a couple of days! This house had an amazing kitchen and we served up heapfuls of food! And our good friend Erin, came to visit us from Florida. She was here for other reasons but we still were able to get together for lunch! Former students getting married! Yup, I'm feeling a little old! The setting was so beautiful! And he drove the entire way home from Atlanta and most of the way there! Gotta get in the historical and nature places when we are somewhere. This place had both. Roswell is one fun town. Onto Myrtle Beach, SC where Beckie, our dear friend and best ever babysitter got married to Ia...

2020!!

Image
It is January 2, 2020 and we are back online! And joyful! Lots has happened over the last several years and I’ll try to add a little catch up with the current times. I hardly know where to begin. We moved to a nearby town and celebrated our first Thanksgiving and Christmas in our new home. Omi also moved to a retirement home. We are still at the same church and same groups so it hasn’t been a huge change socially, just that we have more parties now! So I’ll start with the spring of 2019. We moved out of our house to an apartment downtown so we could renovate our home. During that time we came across our dream home so instead of moving back we moved north!  The apartment life was quite fun! It was brand new and had lots of amenities! Plus no neighbors on any side! Here’s Flax our dog!  Alex took a tower climbing job and travels a lot so we rarely see him.  Here we are in Charleston, my favorite city! We made the offer on the house here and I began Annie Hop...

We took a trek up to Maine to visit Grammie and Grampy Meehan and then we went to the cottage and saw Aunt Amy and Emily and Lila.   Eating on the pier overlooking a bay. Then eating lobsters...  Baltimore airport!  Onto the rental car...  I LOVE this farm!! Atley noticed 2 fish in this picture! Can you see them? Did I mention I LOVE this farm! I LOVE my baby too!! Near the old ice house... Captain Atley! Atley and I have big ideas for this barn but we will have to do this in the south... Nothing like Maine! Missing Alex! Ocean Park And the famous Soda Fountain. The apostle  Paul  said, “Finally, brothers and sisters,  whatever  is true,  whatever is noble ,  whatever is right ,  whatever  is pure,  whatever is lovely ,  whatever  is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — th...
