Spring Soccer for Landry!


This team is so awesome and Coach Jason does such a great job.




Landry and Lola trying out for GUSA  travel soccer.

Happy Mother's Day to Me!


It was so great to just have family time.  We enjoyed a great morning at church.  Had pizza and fruit for lunch.  Hit tennis balls as a family.  Played boards games.  Salsarita's for dinner.  It was a great day and exactly what I wanted.  More time together!  Fancy dinners can happen anytime.  I praise the Lord for his goodness in giving me Robert, Brooks and Landry!  GRAY 4!



Spring Break 2017

We went to North Carolina Outer Banks.  We stayed in Nags Head around Mile Marker 12 and had an awesome time.  It was great to enjoy historic sight seeing, relax and have family time, and to hit the beach!

Aunt Susan made a Yule Log for your birthday.  This is the 2nd year she has celebrated you in this way.  Delicious.




For your Birthday Party, we managed to make it happen in January.  You invited some of your favorite boys over to play soccer, basketball, football and a Birthday edition (that I created) of 5 Second Rule!  It was a really fun day.  We served orange slices, meatballs, Doritos and Gatorade followed by chocolate cake filled with mint chocolate chip ice cream.  Happy Birthday Brooks!

Danny, Tucker, Jacob, Blake, John Carter, Jonathan and Eli!

And of course: Bottle Flipping

9" of snow on a Friday evening. 4 days of powdery snowfall to sled in. We missed Monday and Tuesday and then went in late on Wednesday. It was wonderful!
