Memories of the Month {2.2014}

Memories of the Month {2.2014}

This month I was happy about: a change that’s coming soon!

This month I was sad about: just really missing my Dad these days.

Something I accomplished this month was: not much of anything…or at least that I can remember.

Deja Vu

Drew had the opportunity back when he was 9 to start playing mid-season for Auburn Thunder Travel Soccer. It's like Deja Vu...Just like big brother, Alex has had the same…

Another Snowpocalypse 2014?

Well, we’re all home again today for another “Snow Day.” However, it’s 45 degrees and sunny out! Back at the end of January, we were all home for 3 days because of real snow and ice. Here’s a few pics after much of the snow and ice had already begun to melt.

At the Park with Cousins

I’m still playing catch up with all my pics and posts. These pics were taken while we were in Texas in December. We took a break from all the memorial service planning, cleaning out of Dad’s house, etc to let the boys play at the park with my Brother, Mel’s kids. It was a much needed break for everyone!

New Driver in the House

New Driver in the House

I snapped a few shots of my excited Drew after he was finally able to get his driver’s license today. He turned 16 a week and a half ago, but was waiting on the “Gold” card from the state. He took driver’s ed the 2nd 9 weeks and at the end of the class, which ended after Christmas break, he was able to take the Driver’s Test with his Driver’s ed teacher instead of at the DMV. The “Gold” card has to be sent from Montgomery and it didn’t make in time for his birthday.

So this morning we got up at the crack-o-dawn to get a good spot in line at the DMV. There was a group of Mexicans infront of us, but it turned out they didn’t have all the proper paperwork, so we didn’t have to wait that long.

Here’s my boy with his important piece of paper!
