Birthdays, baptisms and more birthdays











Since school has started back, Wenn has been invited to 6 birthday parties. Four this weekend and two next weekend. We only made it to 2 of them this weekend because 3 were at the same time and two are next weekend. The first one was Mary Paxton's gymnastic party at the Y. Anyone who has been around Wenn for more than 5 minutes knows that she is obsessed with gymnastics right now. She has mastered a cartwheel and a backbend and is so eager to learn how to do a back handspring. This girls LOVES to tumble! She had a blast at the party and is ready to go to gymnastics class this week to learn more. The second party was this afternoon at the "beauty spa" as Wenn calls it. The girls got to get their fingernails, toenails and hair done plus make-up. What more could a room full of 4 and 5 year old girls want? She enjoyed all of the pampering and looked way too grown-up with her princess hair-do and sparkly make-up.
Happy Birthday to Mary Paxton and Suzi Paige!
We also got to share in the celebration of Sterlin Jackson Smith's baptism today. Sterlin is Cliff and Sarah Smith's precious gift from God that took 6 years to get here. It was an extra special day because Sterlin is such a blessing and we are so happy that we got to witness the beginning of his walk with Christ. Happy Baptism to one very special little boy!

Back to School




Sorry to be gone so long but I will try to catch everyone up. Wenn is back in school and is loving life in PK4. The week before school started they had mini cheer camp and she had a blast. They get to perform at Meet the Generals Tuesday night and she is so excited about cheering on the football field. I am praying that a random cold front moves through that day because it is miserable outside! Last Tuesday after registration we had all of the girls in the PK4 over to our house for lunch. It was so fun to start the school year off with all of the girls getting to know each other and I think it is something we will try to do every year. All but 1 showed up so the house was full with 15 girls and their moms and/or dads and I will try to post a group picture sometime soon. Meg is getting old enough to play with Wenn and they are so cute together. Have a good week!
