Whats been happening....

The injury......
Just being silly.


Monday night at Joshua's basketball game, he was "guarding his opponent" as he so well tells the story and well....they kind of bumped heads and his result was this nice black eye. He sat out for a minute but we are proud of him as he finished out the rest of the game! He was actually excited to show off this shiner the next day at school...BOYS!!!!! HA! He has one more basketball game left then in about a month they start practicing for baseball! NEVER STOPS!

Maddie has decided that she might like to take dance/gymnastics instead of playing softball so she we are checking into that for her right now. Maddie is going to be tested for Kindergarten in a couple of weeks. At first I thought no way is she ready but she continues to amaze us at how smart she is and how much she already knows! Maddie is on her 4th round of antibiotics, not sure what is going on but she continues to cough and be congested and now we've has some ear aches and some fever going on as well!

Things have been a bit hectic around our household. My brother Ryan and sister-in-law Jeni are preparing to have their baby girl in about 2-3 weeks and we are ALL really excited. Praise the Lord that all is well with her and baby Rylee so far! We continue to pray for a safe and healthy delivery for both momma and little one.
Our family lost my Aunt Kay on Friday night after a long battle with ovarian cancer. This is my dads sister. We are thankful she is free from pain and even more thankful that we know she is walking with her Lord right now (most likely bossing others around too :) But, she is going to be missed so so much. She was so full of energy and gave so much of her time volunteering at her local hospital and helping others. Some of my most favorite memories is when the whole family would come home to visit and we would spend the weekends at my Grandma Batsons playing cards, trivial pursuit and eating, I have to smile at that thought because those were some of the best times ever!! We miss you and Love you Aunt Kay...

Business is good, again Praise the Lord, and very busy. It takes up most of Matts time and some of mine in the evenings. You never leave work when you own your own business and sometimes it can be tough, but God sees us through it all and has provided for all our needs and most importantly gives us direction.

Until next time......
