Athletic Banquet 2011

Tonight our school held it's annual Athletic Banquet honoring all of the athletes for their participation in the school sports program.  We had a very nice meal of spaghetti, lasagna, salad, green beans, corn, bread, and lots and lots of desserts.  It was very good.  We also had a short devotional by a pastor whose grand kids go to school with us.  I'd be lying if I said there was no pun aimed towards the "end of the world predictions" but it was a very good devotional on teamwork, as in teamwork in working together to spread the gospel.  It was kind of a charge to the kids as well as to the parents to go out and spread the word over the summer.  Then we had the awards ceremony. Carlie and Makena both got trophy's for participating in the pee wee basketball program and Carl got a gift for being an assistant coach for the pee wee boys.  I didn't get a chance to take many pictures, but here are the few that I did take:

Trey found a new girlfriend, and she's in the 9th grade!
Look out Hayley :)

She wouldn't stop so I could take her picture!

Makena was so proud of her trophy!

It was a great night, and we know that we are very blessed to be able to send our kids to a Christian school.  We are thankful for our school family as well as our church family.  They are awesome people who genuinely care about us :)

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
