Football Season 2015

Andrew was drafted to play for the Razorbacks this year. 
He is definitely my athletic child and plays with heart.
I am amazed at how much he has improved from last year.
He makes touchdowns & is a beast on defense.






He may be the smallest on the team, but
 compensates in speed.



One of the moms captured this picture 
of his 80 yard touchdown. 



He was on the same team as his cousin Eli.
Watch out world - these two are going to be awesome!

Adrianna spends every Friday night on the football field cheering on the Apaches. She is indecisive if she will do flag next year. I know it's her decision, but I hope she does. 
I love watching these girls!

I had to post these pictures. 
They were totally busted. This captures them very well.
Always taking selfies and acting silly!!
Poor Mr. Ray! :)

Adrianna & McKenzie's Sweet 16 Party

We celebrated Adrianna & her best friend McKenzie's Sweet 16 Birthday at the Russellville Country Club with lots of friends and family. I want to say a BIG thank you to our Awesome DJ Tras Pfeifer for making this a party 

they will never forget!

The beautiful club house

The ball room

This cake was made by The Cake Place 

All their cakes are delicious.

Singing "Happy Birthday" to the birthday girls

I love these teens so much, they are such good kids! 

The highlight of Andrew's Night - He requested ACDC.
It's so fun that Adrianna's friends embrace Andrew like family when we are all together. So very cute.

Not too long ago, these two girls were in grade school playing upward basketball together. Seems like only yesterday, they were in junior high - cheering on the APACHES. How did we get here so fast?? They both are sixteen, finishing up their 10th grade year, driving, looking for summer jobs & going on dates! How I wish I could turn back time... tears are flowing down my face as I type. I don't like that my little girl is growing up however at the same time, I am proud of the lady she has become! Jeremy & I know that with her christian faith and morals, she will go so far in life - I can't wait to see what GOD has in store for you girlie!

XOXO

Happy Sweet 16

Happy Sweet 16 Adrianna!

You were our first miracle. You were the genesis of a marriage, the fulfillment of young love, the promise of our infinity ~ you sustained us through the hamburger years... the first house furnished in "Early Poverty"... our first mode of transportation {1995 Pontiac Sunfire}... the 19 inch tv set with rabbit ears.

You were the new, had unused grandparents and had more clothes than a Barbie doll. You were the "original model" for unsure parents trying to work the bugs out. You were the beginning.

You are my best friend and have me thoroughly convinced that you prefer hanging out with me over anyone else! 

I love you so much!

XOXO

I went to Jerry's World in Dallas to watch the 

Southwest Classic Arkansas Razorback and 

Texas A&M Aggies SEC Game.

Adrianna & Andrew started back to school...

Hard to believe my baby girl is in high school!

quick business trip to D.C to meet a few 

customers and my field team. One of my co-workers 

who is a native, gave me a grand tour of the city.

 Every time I watch 

Scandal - I say I've been there!!

Annapolis, Maryland is beautiful! My AGM 

is already trying to recruit Andrew for the Naval Academy. 

Took a cruise from Annapolis to St. Michaels  

& had lunch at the Crab Claw.

My first raw oyster 

My Team!

Jeremy & I have been spending lots of time 

at the football field with this little man...

and this girl!

It's been busy the past few months and full of chaos... but it's beautiful chaos. I wouldn't have it any other way!
I've learned life is too short... Live in the moment and enjoy every second.

XOXO

So happy my daughter is the same way.
