Okay, I have to share some verbiage on this momentous occasion. I am so excited and so depressed all at the same time. Let me explain just a little bit. I am so excited because my little girl (not so little anymore) has reached a pinnacle of success in her young life that I was too ignorant to follow through on. She has surpassed me in this area in her life and I continue to pray that she surpasses me in many other areas of life as well. She is beginning a new stage in her life and the world is her oyster, as the saying goes. Hope she doesn't get sick on it :) Our relationship will be changing into something more than what it has been for so many years and our conversations will be more like friends than parent/child. Luckily this has been slowly changing to this type of relationship anyway, as she has been maturing beyond her years and continues to do so. I am really looking forward to how God is going to use her to guide and lead younger children. I'm looking forward to her...

Well we're back and we had a blast! We enjoyed Meridian State Park in Meridian, TX this year. The past several years we enjoyed going to Whitney State Park but wanted a different place this year. And boy, did we hit the jackpot! We made some great memories, saw some wonderful wonders and praised our Lord for all He continues to do just for us! There's allot of history at the Meridian State Park and man is it BEAUTIFUL. Hidden away in the wooded hills northwest of Waco lies Meridian State Park, a haven for nature lovers and fishing enthusiasts. The park's 72-acre lake offers fishing in addition to swimming, and no-wake boating. A hiking trail encircling Lake Meridian features limestone outcroppings with fossils, a scenic overlook and aquatic vegetation. Birdwatching is excellent and there is a good chance of seeing the rare Golden-cheeked Warbler. Meridian State Park, near Meridian, TX in Bosque County, is a 505.4-acre park. A rock and earth...

Our oldest has her drivers license !!!!! It took exactly one year to accomplished but it's done now! I went and picked her up from school early yesterday (10am), one year after getting her permit. We tried doing the parent-taught but she was having trouble grasping the concept. So we enrolled her into Austin Driving School where she could be with other kids her age. Our school district offered the classroom phase but not the behind-the-wheel phase. It was a long process but worth the extra time and money. She was extremely nervous and I was for her. She ACED the parallel parking, the instructor took 1 point off for not using her signal. All said and done and she did an AMAZING job, her score was 27 out of 30! We're SO proud of her! After the test, her and I had a chance to go out to lunch (which hardly happens) and enjoy each others company. I have learned to treasure our time together. When she was younger, I thought I had allot of time left. Well, now I've c...
