Happy Thanksgiving!

I didn't get a formal Thanksgiving picture, so here's some fun shots. The boys, Jan and I ran the 2016 Turkey Trot at Memphis Botanic Gardens on Thanksgiving Day. Tried to negate some of those calories before we ate at Mimi's! Mary Claire hung out with Mimi and Daddy Nick while we ran. Mary Claire and I took some silly pictures at the library and she spent some time helping Mrs. Sara take care of a little girl Mrs. Sara is babysitting now. Jan shaved his beard, so Mary Claire wanted a picture with him before he shaved. We spent

We have so much to be thankful for this year! Thank you, God, for my family and the conviction of spending daily time with You, Lord. To rely on You no matter what and NOT on ourselves or anything of this world!

I love Mary Claire's face in this picture!

Before Jan shaved off his beard...

Jonah's planning of his days during the break from school. I think he might be my child! ;)

Allergies and Asthma

 We knew he had asthma after a few days spent in LeBonheur in 2012. Now we have confirmed his allergies! Both ragweeds, all the grasses, trees!! But no allergies to dogs, so you can guess what he wants MORE than ever now! ;)

Bless his heart! Not a fun test, but he made it through it like a trooper! (He wanted me to take a picture so he could see his back and the reactions.)

1st School Dance!

There he is! Jonah at his 1st school dance! 5th grade Fall Dance with friends like Reid.

Jonah was so excited. We drove him, I walked him in and he barely told me good-bye before he walked away. My big boy!!
