R.E.N.O.

We're off!!!

We are heading to Reno, Nevada!!!

We might have BIG, BIG news!!!

Romans 8:28

One Tall Drink of Water!!

As if Luke isn't tall enough, he

bought a pair of stilts when we

were at the beach!!! He loves to

walk all around outside on the

stilts . . . I keep the car running

just knowing that these look like a

broken arm in the making!!!!

When did my Luke grow

up so big and tall?

When did he get so be

so handsome?

Just for fun the other day

we checked Luke's percentile

for weight and height.

He is in the 98th percentile

for height.

He is in the 89th percentile

for weight.

Just Do It!

And we know that all things work

together for good to them

that love God, to them who are

called according to His

purpose. Romans8:28

For Me?!?

My boys are soooo incredible!

They were busy outside trimming

the rosebushes . . . when to

my surprise, they brought in

this beautiful bouquet of

roses just for me . . . they

took the thorns off of the stems

and everything!!!

I.am.so.blessed.

Why I LOVE Boys . . .

Being a "boy" mom is just great! I did not know

how perfectly it would suit me and why God

just kept dishing out boy after boy. I did not

know the many blessings that I would receive

just by being fortunate enough to be their Mom!

These guys are truly amazing and we have so

much fun together! I am grateful for my place

as the Queen Bee in our home and would not

trade it for anything!! We have a bazillion

laughs and there is never . . . ever . . . a dull

moment in our home!!!

I.am.one.blessed.lady.

Rack 'em Up!

Oh yeah! Summer is here . . . Let the games

begin!! Summer nights are a great time for

pool! The boys swim all day and then rack up

the pool balls and have a ton of fun playing

pool at night, accompanied by tunes, of course!

It is fun to hear, "I play winner . . . "

Luke is a great little pool player!

Zach is a great sport to play with the

boys for many hours in the evenings!

Oh, yeah baby!!

Playin' Through!

Tonight was the annual ever-anticipated

Pahrump Valley Junior Golf Association

Awards!!

Mike and I both feel that the very best

thing that has happened to our family

as a result of our move here has been

the junior golf association.

Truly, awards are not given to every

player and the recipients are chosen

very carefully.

We are soooo proud to announce . . .

Luke was awarded the DIRECTOR'S

AWARD and MOST DEDICATED

GOLFER!!! Luke truly loves the

game of golf and has a great time

out on the course with friends

both during casual and tournament

play. We are so proud of Luke for

his accomplishments and grateful

for his dedication to the sport!! Luke

has made a lot of friends playing golf

and is great fun on the course!

Luke has not missed a golf tournament

in FOUR SEASONS!!!

Sam, who has truly dedicated himself

to golf, was awarded MOST OUTSTANDING
GOLFER and MOST DEDICATED

GOLFER!! He has learned so much this

season as the ONLY FRESHMAN on

the Men's Varsity Golf Team. We

are so proud of him as he has

truly put forth an incredible amount

his own game and play with a

team spirit!

Sam has not missed a golf tournament

Both Sam and Luke have sacrificed

Boy Scout outings and camp outs,
