Change

Just thought I would throw you all off guard and change the look of our blog. As some of you may or may not know, Greg is the new manager of the Kilgore branch of Mueller. It is the store that Greg worked at as a salesman, Michael (his brother) also got his start there. We are so proud of him!!! It is exactly 1 hour from here to there and he does not mind the commute. I will try to get some updated photos in the next few weeks.

Alyssa's 2nd grade program

Alyssa played a ladybug in her 2nd grade play.

She had a few lines and a dance to memorize

and did very well.

Alyssa's 8th birthday

Alyssa's birthday was Wedensday March 26. We

opened presents and had birthday cake on Tuesday night. She got an

outfit, a new Bible and a case for her Bible.

Happy Easter

Hope you all had a blessed Easter. We took these pictures at the Azalea Garden here at SFA after church. They are starting to bloom and are gorgeous. Cole was being a typical 2-year old and not wanting to take pictures. Enjoy!!! :)

Cousins

A few weeks ago we went to Longview to see Greg's cousin Rusty, his wife Ann, and their little girl Hallie. They are missionaries in Africa and were home for a few months. It was great to see them. The whole family came and we had a mini-reunion. We had 5 kids under the age of 3 and they did not have a nap for 2 days....they were GREAT!!!! They played and were in the best mood the whole weekend. This is a picture of Cole and William (Greg's brother Michael's oldest child). They had a blast on this horse swing.

The top picture is of all of the kids after the Easter egg hunt.

Valentine's Day

Cole's class had a Valentine's Tea Party. They dressed up and we were supposed to also. We had fun. The part that you can not see in this picture, is that he was wearing girls pink dress-up shoes, too.

Em's First Band Concert

We had the privilege to go to Emily's first ever band concert. In Nacogdoches ISD, there are 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The band program starts in 6th grade. For the concert they had what they called a "beginner band" (all 6th graders from both campuses) perform together. They sounded great!!! Emily plays the French horn.
