Let homecoming festivities begin!!

After the Jr's worked 6 hours on their hall Saturday, Saturday night it still looked like this!  WOW!
Sunday after Mamaw's lunch Grace and I went back to peek and it had transformed!




Kacey is in the blue!

Don't look behind the curtain!





Great job Jr's! 
And on Sunday night they were judged and their hall won first place!!!  SWEET!

Weekend

Life has been a little crazy.... On Friday night we had food and a fun night with the Rowe's we didn't take one picture.  :(  We made a fire in the fire pit and just sat and ate smores and had a great relaxing night.  What a blessing
On Saturday we went to Dewayne and Becky's 25th year wedding anniversary party and we had a great time and enjoy being with everyone.  I didn't take many pictures there either just some of Ms. Ayda... she is precious.
On Sunday we meet all the Batemon's at Top of the River of Mamaw's 80th birthday party.
She amazes me!  Such a Godly woman!

Let me catch u up!

Life right now is Crazy....  There is so much going on.  
*Getting ready for Homecoming week...  
*Greg has started back to school..  I can't even remember If I have put that on here.  He is in his 5th week.
*I guess the most life altering news is that we are no longer at Mtn. View.  It was hard but God is in control and his plan is perfect.  We are in the process of looking for a church home and have basically been church hopping for the last couple of weeks.  That is the hardest part.  Church is very important to us and we love our church family.  To not really belong right now is hard and selfish.  We are praying and waiting on direction from the Lord as we take on a new journey. 
*Grace is getting ready to try out for softball so we have been practicing in the afternoons when we can.  It is so hard to believe she is in 7th grade, time goes so fast. 
*Pray for the girls, they both have very difficult classes this year.
*Pray for our family as we seek God's will as to where we will serve in the future.
We are sidelined but not out of the game!  I'm excited to see what God is doing in our lives even now.  I have always wanted to volunteer for Operation Christmas child.  For the last 10 years I've been over OCC at whatever church we were involved in and we had been gathering items at MV and when we left I knew somehow I still wanted to be part of this awesome ministry.  God opened a door and blessed me with an opportunity to go to Atlanta and work at the distribution center this year and I am beyond excited for this opportunity.  God is good all the time!

Color Run

 We left in the rain, stood in the rain, and ran in the rain.... Crazy... but fun.
We were up most of the night with storms and the power was out so we were afraid we wouldn't get up in time.  Abigail and Laura had spent the night with us so we had a house full.
We left Grace and Greg in the bed.

 Jessica, Carol and Me.
 and being so wet, we were cold!
 The after!


 We had a blast
 A messy blast
Abigail, Kacey and Laura









What a fun time and would do it again!  Rain and all
Happy Labor Day!

Sunday night Photo shoot

These lovely ladies dressed up for a photo shoot.
There is never a dull moment when they are around and I am so thankful for the friendship they provide Kacey!
Isn't she gorgeous!
We had so much fun, playing in hay fields and in barns.  It is a thousand wonders we didn't get on a snake!
I CAN NOT BELIEVE THEY ARE JR'S!  :(
They all have their own personality and style!
Enjoy your year beautiful girls and this Momma is trying to enjoy it too, and not blink..
