FCC

April 26, 2024

In the home stretch and school and we are all ready for summer. Maxwell can’t wait to get back to camp. We had quite the fun surprise earlier this year when the Falling Creek magazine was delivered and look who made the cover!!

Maxwell and Jack make pretty good cover models I’d say!

Is it summer yet? Nope, but it is Friday so I’ll take that! Make it a great weekend!

Renaissance Man

April 23, 2024

The junior high has clubs you can join and Maxwell and a bunch of his friends joined the cross-stich club – really only because their favorite teacher Mrs. Wiggins was leading it! Of course, Maxwell took it and ran with it. He’s been working hard on his special cross-stitch for weeks and finally finished it up on our road trip this past weekend…

Then he was finally able to gift it to GJ!

He did an excellent job and GJ was thrilled with her Florida palm tree!

Blue Angels

April 16, 2024

We recently had the opportunity to go see the Blue Angels at Maxwell Air Force base with scouts and it was such a cool experience. Robert and Spencer headed down early with everyone to get the campsite all set up…

and then I drove Maxwell down after his baseball game to meet up with everyone at the air show. Samantha tagged along and we just made a day of it!

scouts

The airshow was huge and we had quite a walk to finally meet up with everyone – but we were very glad to find them because they had an awesome viewing spot in the VIP section with tents, free food, and fantastic views! They had all kinds of planes and parachuters – Miss Alabama even parachuted down!

Pretty sure the boys were more excited about all these cars parked on the base than the planes! ha!

For Daddo!

The Blue Angels finally came out and they were so cool to watch! Pretty unbelievable what they can do with the planes.

What’s really cool is that the dad of one of our new scouts is a former Blue Angel!

Jenny and Ronnie even came out to see them too. A fun day for everyone!

After the show, the scouts even got to go take a picture with the Blue Angels. How cool is this?

The boys then all headed back to the campsite and Samantha and I made the long walk back to the car to head home. We did pass some cool stuff along the way though…

A really fun day for everyone!

Last day, best day!

Twinkies!

While it wasn’t sunny all day it was sunny most of the day and we were happy! There was still plenty of fresh powder…

A little bit of sunshine really does make ALL the difference!

When we stopped for lunch early, Samantha walked into some snow that hadn’t been touched since the day before. Look how deep in just one night!
