Hello Again

A little catch up post here.  We had a wonderful late winter and spring although it seemed spring would never arrive.  A few Easter pictures to start off with.  Love this family of ours so much.

Ronnie Hope and I took a trip to Broken Bow in the Spring to look at the Dogwood trees blooming and to check out a cabin we rented for a trip with the family this summer.  We came across a pretty little park on our drive and took some cute pictures.

Heath and Audrey played T-Ball.  Such fun.  Audrey played in the pitcher circle most of the season and Heath did great at first base.  His favorite saying was “Hey did you see me tag that guy out!”

The Boys…my how they have grown. Of course one of them had to be comical in the picture…Thanks Ben!  Love them all so much and we are so very proud of them . End of the year school activities were awesome.  Hope and Audrey both got lots of awards.  Once again Hope was Citizen of the year for her class.  We are so very proud of both girls.

Then Sunnie Kay graduated from 8th grade.  Such a fun preview of four years in the future. 

Sunnie and her BFF Montana. 

 

Now on to SUMMER 2014…

Christmas 2013

Sadly this was our last Christmas with Grandma, she went to heaven in early January.  So very happy to have had this Christmas season with her.  She loved Christmas and she loved Christmas decorations.  One year she and several of the ladies at our church sold ornaments to raise money to buy coats for some local children who needed them.  She was a wonderful Mom, Grandmother and Great Grandmother.  She was so special to me, I believe I am a better mother and wife and grandmother because of her.   

We had some happy times during the Christmas Season too. 

I know one little girl who got way too much stuff for Christmas this year.  Her name is Hope Marie…

These pictures are of the Chinese Lantern Festive at Fair Park in Dallas.  Beautiful.  Some dear friends gave us tickets and we had so much fun. Also we bought a new car.  Love Love Love it.  And we are so thankful to have it. Also Hope Celebrated her 9th Birthday in December.  Several Friends and family celebrated by seeing the movie  “Frozen”  (great movie) and then cake and at a local restaurant.
