2020!!

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 Hopper’s DNRS which has been a game changer for my life!
 The Ines had us over for Easter...my best friend!
 Atley played soccer...


 Camping with the Ines and friends...
 Visiting Omi at Magnolia Glen...

 The Ines grandbaby! Addison looks so cute too!


Brain training has begun! Www.retrainingthebrain.com 




 Our apartment was on the greenway and we took lots of wonderful walks. There were so many frogs!












 Rick won gold in the pickleball championship!

And that ends this list.
I am so incredibly thankful and praising the Lord each day! I hope you have a very happy and blessed New Year and stay tuned for more!

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...

October 2015

October began with TKD testing. Atley tested for her senior blue belt and this was a tough one. I didn't know if she would be able to test but she practiced and practiced and she tested! The forms are very complicated and there is so much to remember. I am impressed with how hard she works and how well she does. A bit nervous walking into test.. Sparring well is also a big part of testing...  She passed!!!! We are studying Flying Creatures this year so I organized a trip for her class to a 700 acre environmental education preserve and they designed a class just for our group! Hands on and very educational. And Melissa and Karl came down for a visit for a few days! Melissa brought tons of her old costume jewlery to share with Atley. And Atley is making a doughnut costume for Halloween. We saw this on YouTube and I thought. "we can do this." Addison's 14!!! His birthday was so fun! Thank you everyone for the car...

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...
