We surprised Kyla with an aquarium and a new purple fish. She named the fish Larry  and we enjoyed watching him swim around his new home...for two hours. RIP Larry.

Weekend campout

Adam and I had a great time with the boys at a mountain man rendezvous in Cleveland Georgia. Adam was able to compete in archery, knife throwing, caber toss, hatchet throwing and rifle shooting. The boys did a great job competing with 5 other stakes and finished the day tired and happy about their experiences

Falcons Rise Up & Run 5k

Image
Adam and I had a great time in Atlanta getting an opportunity to run to the GA Dome and on the Falcons field. It was really exciting for both of us to be on the field of our favorite football team. For Adam, this was his first complete 5k and he did a great job finishing 16th in his age group (8-14 years)

Adam played cornerback and special teams. I captured his blocked pass and post play swagger. It was great to see him have fun out on the field with his team!

Kyla's Birthday Weekend!

A big weekend for Kyla as she turned 8 years old! We celebrated with her cousins at Chuck E. Cheese and finished the weekend off with her baptism into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. According to Kyla, "eight is great!"

Scout Camp 2014

Adam's third year Scout Camp was a success! He earned merit badges in camping, first aid, climbing and citizenship in the world. He also went white water rafting. Sounds like a great week!

Tabby and Jenna went to Buford to the dance and had a great time. This was Jenna's last one as she is graduating this year. Very bittersweet for Tabby as she will miss her BF as she goes off to college.
