Wow- 2007 has flown by so fast. It is hard to believe that 2008 is just a few weeks away. This past year has been exciting for us. A short recap of our year:
*We have broken in a new house-and believe me, broken is an appropriate word!
*We added a new member on February 8- Maddox Isaiah. He so precious and has been such a blessing to our family.
*Summer was short for us. I went to the Christ In Youth Conference in Savannah with the youth and had an amazing time.
*Clint & I visited Canada with Maddox in June and found out first hand that their socialized medicine isn’t that great.
*I started home schooling Bryce at the end of July. He’s in first grade. He started playing soccer in September. He loved it and is a pretty good player. The kids in the youth group have sharpened his skills by letting him play with them every week.
*Preston started Pre-K at First Methodist Church. He likes it a lot. He keeps us laughing all the time with his straight forwardness and his pure heart. He is also known as “Tell- it-like-it-is-Preston.”
*Clint started band camp the second week of July and had football games every Friday night from September until mid-November. He took the band to 3 competitions and they won lots of awards.
*We went to Savannah during Fall Break and rented a beach house with some good friends. We had 8 adults & 7 children all under one roof- we had lots of adventures & have lots of stories to tell from that trip!
*Our friends, Matt & JoAnna got married in October- Bryce was the ring bearer & I directed the wedding. It was not just a wedding ceremony but a true celebration- we all had so much fun.
*We visited Canada again over Thanksgiving with 186 members of Clint’s band to march in the Toronto Santa Clause Parade. My favorite moment was when it was “snowing” on us at Niagara Falls- so beautiful.
*Bryce has been playing the drums in church some on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights. One of our youth, Sallie, taped him playing a few weeks ago so I will post it to share with all of you.
