Happy Birthday To Terry

Terry has hit the big 40!!!!!! Yep this was the year and we were lucky enough to have his brother and wife, Merrit and Shirley, in town from Canada. So we had birthday dinner with his mom and dad, the Skidmores, and Merrit and Shirley. He was thrilled to have everyone share this day with him

Zach Has Started School at Western Kentucky University

 Zach is all settled in and has started his studies at WKU. He seems to be doing well, studying hard and doing well on his tests.  He is fortunate to have a few friends and his girlfriend attending as well but is also branching out and meeting lots of new people. We were so excited to have Terry go out for parents weekend and get to see Zachs new digs and get a peek into this new phase of his life.  

School Has Started And It's A Hit

 Jamison has started kindergarten and is oh so in love. He has an awesome teacher, knows many of his classmates from church and sports already so making new friends has been pretty easy, and says quite often, "I wish school was longer." Let's see how long that lasts :)

But seriously this child loves to learn. I suppose having a teacher for a father will do that to a kid.

So this school is BIG an parent volunteers. So terry is working in the Jamisons classroom Monday Mornings and I help out in the take home library Fridays. I feel like we are settling into a nice routine and hope the year continues to be as much fun s it has been so far.

 

 

 

Summer Of Fun, part 2

 

 Well the Summer Of Fun is about over. School has started and we are in full swing there but are going to squeeze a few more "Summer" activities out  in the next week or so.

We are so pleased with how much we got done on our list. When we wrote it I didn't think we would get to much of it but surprisingly we have.

 

We camped out for a parade with friends and family.

 Jamison has been my canning buddy this year and he has really made the process a whole lot easier and fun. I was shocked at such a young age just how much he was able to do. He cut just about all the apricots when we did jam, and did a lot of the apples from picking to processing for the applesauce.

 Fun times with friends

 Papa, Jaeleen, and Sierra came out for a visit. Jamison was so excited to have his cousin in town!!

 Bowling with cousins. I will just say that bowling and the Slabberts is always the right choice.

 Camping with the family. Oh how Jamison has been waiting for this event. We had such a great time and can't wait to get a few trips set for next year.
