I know, it has been soo long since I have posted. We have had a very busy time.

School ended with a bang. Jacob made straight "A"s for the last nine weeks, and was just one point away from getting them for the entire year....we are very proud. Sam also did very well, with almost all "3"s. Eli ended the year with only a few days missed (yea) and loved it the entire time!! Again, I cannot say enough about how the day school took such good care of him. He was so sad to leave his teachers, Miss Julie and Miss Kelly. So was I. I honestly don't know if I could have left him with anyone else this year...I sooo knew they were taking such good care of him.

After school was over the entire family went to Atlanta for the weekend. We did it all, going to Stone Mountain for a day, the Georgia Aquarium one evening, and finally...a Braves game with the Hucks family on Sunday. It was all great fun, especially watching the Braves win it in the 8th inning. Then John came back to Charleston and Cher and I took 5 kids to Gatlinburg for the week. We had a great time, although I think both of us were ready for a little quiet at the end of the week. I really love the mountains. It is all so beautiful!!!!

We are back now, and going to Vacation Bible School at church. So fun!! Eli is super excited to go to "camp" every morning. I am working in the snacks instead of teaching, and it has been fun hanging out with adults for a change.

Our treatment continues to go well. Eli was on antibiotics last week for a little sinus infection, but all went well. It was amazing to me that he even took the "yucky medicine" with ease. (and this was augmenton, so it was waaay yucky) He took it twice a day for 10 days with no problem. I am very, very thankful for that. Our prayers are that this year continues to go as well as the past has, we have been so blessed!!

Our summer is going to be full of the pool, hopefully the beach, and some camps in between. Hope your summer goes great!! I will post pictures as soon as I get a chance.

Thanks for checking in.

I am thankful for where we are and how far we have come....we give the credit for this to God and God alone, he has gotten us this far and will get us through...
