Class of 2015

Lys completed her senior year of high-school at
Pensacola Christian College as a dual
enrollment student.


On May 9, 2015 we were able to watch our
little girl walk across the stage
and accept her diploma.


We are so thankful God provided the
opportunity and that she enjoyed being
a college girl!


On June 6, 2015, we were able
to celebrate her graduation
with the rest of the family.


We all enjoyed the day


and appreciated each one who


celebrated with us!

Congratulations, Lys!

We love you so much

A Chair Story

One day I decided I wanted a new chair(s) for the dinning room table.  I have wanted said chair(s) for quite awhile.

While out shopping this week, I found a chair.  Yes, just one...two would have been better. We bought said chair, brought it home and put it to the table.  I love like this chair A LOT.  It is so comfy and it "fits" me just right.  Well, because our table has a supports from leg to leg, the chair sits too high.  At this point, I am sad...very sad.  Did I mention how much I love like this chair???

The next morning I decided to try the chair again and it is just not the best/most comfortable way to sit to the table.  If only the table didn't have the extra support.  Still sad...very sad.  In the course of my day, running up and down stairs to do laundry, school and finish my to-do list I have an epiphany!

Why not try the chair at my school desk.  After all, it is where I spend the most time.  Up the chair and I go.  I'm getting happier and happier each step I climb.  I just know hope this is going to work.  I finally get (have you tried to go up stairs with a chair in your hands? not so easy when you have short legs) to the top and bring my chair to the schoolroom, much to the children's surprise!

I move my big, grey monster of a chair out of the way and lovingly place my beautiful, new chair up to my desk.  Ahh, it's wonderful.  I have found a home for this chair that I love find so comfortable.

I tell you all of this to say I walked into the schoolroom after returning from doing laundry and this is what I find...


I'm sad to say the chair is still at L's desk...it just didn't work at my desk either.

But at least it has an owner who loves it as much as I do!

19...Where Did the Time Go?


Who knew it would be so cold at college
that Ty would want a warm coat.

Well, that or the one he had was just too
small.  Some people will do anything for 
a new jacket, even grow!

Happy (early) Birthday, Ty!

Happy Birthday, Lys



January 28 marked Lys's 15 birthday.

We had a family celebration at NaPa's house 
the weekend before Ty had to fly back to 
college. 

No, she didn't eat her cookie that way!

It Is Finished!

I have to say, graduation went smoothly.

I was worried I might lose my shoe
or trip up the stairs :)


Beth took this as we walked down from
the stage.  It is one of my new
favorite pictures.



He sure does look happy doesn't he?!
We are so proud of him!

The day wouldn't have been complete
without all the family who joined us.


Papa & Nana


Bobi (Ron was there, too)


Hanging out in our room after a great day!

I have other pictures, but they aren't on this computer.

Our other guest were:

Grandma & Grandpa W

Grandpa T & Patty

Uncle Norval & Aunt Shirley

Thank you to everyone who made the long trip.

We love you!

Almost Time!

These next pictures are just
random shots taken
while we waited for the
"main event" to begin.


If I recall correctly, he was
being really silly!


See, doesn't that smile say,
"Gotta love me!"

This picture is one of the three
that was played before the
graduation ceremony.


Ty-larger than life :)

Picture Time


The first thing to happen on the day of
graduation is a "class" picture.
Each home schooled graduate is
invited to arrive early to be included.

I still think he was not quite
"feeling" it.  Actually, he was just
playing it up for the camera.

It takes a good bit of time to get
 all those unruly teenagers of them
lined up.


Ty ended up being in one of the 
first "tallest" groups.  That meant he had
to stand on the stairs for a really long time.


Here is the entire graduating

Class of 2011!

Can you find Ty?

Please Pray!

five year old  niece is in the hospital.

Please say a prayer for her!



Thank You!!!

Graduation ~ Part 1


The day of graduation, is a LONG day.

Ty was really not feeling it :(


He was just a tad grumpy.  I told him
I was going to take pictures of him to
prove to everyone he wasn't happy.


Once I got the camera out, he seemed to snap
out of "funk" he was in.


PHEW!  I thought he might just be grumpy
all day long!
