Opening Day

This is the second year the boys have played baseball for the city (last year t-ball... now we moved up to the major leagues, aka coach pitch) and they love it. Gainesville is a not too small of a town, but it feels like one on days like Opening Day. It is as if the whole city comes out to cheer on these little guys as they start their season. Here are a few pictures from the morning ceremonies...

                              

First Daddy Daughter Dance

Do not be mislead, girls can be a little tough (and by a little, I mean a lot). But they are also pretty sweet and this little one let all that sweetness and cuteness out for her date with her Daddy to the Daddy Daughter Dance.

She looked forward to this day for a while, talking and dreaming about what a "dance" even was. Little did she know she had the best date in the entire world to take her. Here are some of her pics before heading out with her Dad...

Snow Day

As you can see, it wasn't the 9 Inch Snow Storm that was predicted, but these buds didn't know the difference. They had a BLAST with their Daddy hitting the "slopes" on the sled. It seems every year just around this time we get just enough snow to make a fun day out of it. Here are some pics from the snowy day...

Our Little Christmas Day

When I think about this Christmas day, I immediately think of how simple it was but how it is one of my favorites. Because Christmas fell on a Sunday, Clay needed to work on Monday so we didn't head down to Charleston ON Christmas day like we usually do. We took it easy, soaking up the kids Christmas morning, getting to do breakfast with Clay's parents and sisters family, and then getting to serve lunch to those who are less fortunate at the homeless shelter. Then the rest of the day we spent at the house preparing for our taco feast we had Christmas night. God is too good. We (I) must not squander His goodness but treasure it and give Him all the glory. Lord help me to be a good steward of these sweet blessings...
