2011

Well, as we are coming up on ending 2011 a year that brought us joy,excitement,tears,disappointment we are reflected on those times. We welcomed 2011 with our 4/5th year homeschooling our daughters. We came in with a bang and our oldest daughter Nicole turning 22. We are so proud of her accomplishments in life and are super proud of her being the woman she has become. We then turn to our precious gift Catey who turned 4 in March and has become the light of our life since the day this red head was born. She takes after her Great Pawpaw with her beautiful red hair and gorgeous blue eyes. We then came up on our almost 5 month and 4/5yr homeschooling,we went on many trips field trips to be exact and some very exciting ones. We also welcomed 2011 with our other children turning 19 in June, our precious little miracle Gracilynn turning 1 July 23rd,our Emily turning 7 Aug,Alyson 10 double digits Sept and our newest 20 yr old Oct 3rd.We also had some tears and heart ache when we learned Chuck's Dad has Cancer, inoperable Cancer but praise God he is still with us. Its terrible though when family divides and some are lost because of it,but we pray daily for peace and comfort during this time and know that one day we will meet again when our heavenly father comes for us. We welcome our 9th pregnancy in August but quickly found out we lost our precious angel and he/she is not residing with God in his arms, we also got some other exciting news at the same time,we are now going to be Grandparents. Our oldest Daughter Nicole will welcome her first baby coming April 2012.
So even though 2011 brought us some joy,tears,excitement,disappointment we are knowing that 2012 will be more.

My evening with my oldest daughter

I had such a nice evening with my beautiful baby girl Nicole. She has turned into such a lady.We went and got our nails done,then off to Panda Express for dinner and the grocery store of course.
I can't believe she is 20. Does time fly by that fast.
