Pinewood Derby


Porter had his 2nd Pinewood Derby and he ended up placing 5th out of about 20 cars. The whole night was way fun, all the kids just sat in front of the track and snacked on popcorn as those little homemade cars raced by! The top picture is of Hutch and our little friend Grady. And below is a picture of Porter and a few of his scouting buddies.

HEY MILLER

If you drove by CV high school last week this is what you would have seen proudly displayed in front of the school..... it's a message for Carter!!! No matter where that man teaches the kids just love him and they find the most creative ways to show him, we thought this was great!!

Carter is such an awesome teacher, not because he has the most detailed lesson plans, but because he truly cares for the kids at the school, and they know that and they look up to him and they look to him when they need someone. I truly admire him for that.

The Tooth Fairy has been BUSY!!

In a matter of 10 days our little Hutcher last 3 teeth!!! I still LOVE his HUGE smile but, I'm afraid the fairy is broke now!! :-)

Life has been a Dream.....

Our Porter turned 10 over the weekend.... I can't believe how time flies! It seems like not too long ago he was this sweet little baby that I could just pick up and snuggle when ever I wanted to.... Oh, how I do miss those days. But, he has turned out to be the best boy!! It's my blog, so, I can brag so here goes: He is the Sweetest, Kindest, most compassionate boy I have EVER been around, and I think he's quite a little athlete too!! I secretly call him a gentle giant, because he's one of the biggest, toughest kids in his grade, but he's as compassionate and caring as anyone I've EVER met. I love that kid I am grateful for his example in my life....he's just GOOD! He makes mistakes like all kids do, but I know in his heart his intentions are good. Happy Birthday, Porter!!!

Uncle Shawn!!!

What a GREAT visit we had from Uncle Shawn!!! It began with a SURPRISE!..... the boys didn't even know he was coming, so they woke up in the morning to him making them breakfast, so fun!!

Each boy took a day off of their busy schedules and spent the day with him bowling, movie, park, kites, board games, whatever!!!! It was SO nice and the boys felt so special, they are so lucky they have a great uncle like him!!!
