It has been a while...

It has been a long time since I updated this blog so I thought it was about time. Over the past few weeks life has been a roller coaster! We spent several weeks just knowing that Chris was going to loose his job at Eastman. As the time drew closer for the "word" to come, our life went into panic mode. THANK THE LORD, Chris did not loose his job so now we feel like things are getting back to normal...at least a little bit anyway.

We completed the Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University last night. Dave really knows his stuff and his Baby Steps are transforming our lives. Can't wait to complete all of the baby steps and have true financial peace. It will be a while until we reach this goal but at least we are on the way.

It is hard to believe that in just a few short weeks, Nicole will be finished with kindergarten and Alison will be on her way to 6th Grade! Where does the time go??
Here are some pictures from the past few months:

Alison sang "Realize" at her talent show at school. Chris played for her. They both did such a good job!
A few weeks ago we went to Bays Mountain. We hadn't been there in a while. Everyone had a great time!
Alison got glasses a few months ago. I think she did a great job picking out just the perfect pair!
We went hiking with the Aubrey family. The weather was gorgeous and we all had a great time. Algie felt quite certain that Nicole would be the one to actually get in the water...sure enough when we got to the falls, Nicole fell in. It is a long hike back in wet shoes and socks!

The weather has been beautiful! This weekend we planted grass (which you can see in the background) and we planted this little tree. Hopefully one day it will provide some much needed shade to our front yard!
