Tribute to Eli

On Friday night, Mackaylan and I were able to go to Eli's baseball game. It was so great to see him in action out on the field. Hopefully we will get to a few more games before the season ends. We love you, Eli!

Wordless Wednesday- Kind of.....

A few weeks ago the "Stepping Stone" SS class met at Lisa and Scott's for some family fun! I feel so blessed to have these people in my life. The love and support Mickey and I receive from this wonderful group of people is astounding. We are so fortunate to have a group of Christian friends where we can be completely transparent (Mickey sometimes more than me- LOL), cut up, laugh, and just be who we are- no strings attached. However, this same group of people also provide accoutability, biblical wisdom, and encouragement in times of need. We all "have each other's backs" because we know Who has ours! To us, these faces mean way more than the names on a Sunday School roster, they are friends!

Dance Pictures Sneak Peek

Last night my mom and I took Mackaylan to have her dance pictures made. I just love her costume this year, but I love the little girl wearing it so much more!!! This year Mackaylan is taking tap and jazz and only has 2 other girls in her group so she gets a lot of one-on-one instruction. For her tap routine she is dancing to a Bon Jovi song, and she is dancing to a Miley Cyrus song for her jazz routine. Here are a few pictures that I took at my mom and dad's before we headed to the studio to have the professional shots made. Enjoy!

Big Buck

This weekend Mickey raced at his favorite track- Big Buck, Union, SC. He finished 10th, which was one place away from receiving a plaque (or as Mackaylan calls it- a "picture frame!") This was his best finish as this track so he was satisfied with his performance. Russell, Dawn and Isaac joined us on the pit crew/fan club this week. Betsi, Mickey's sister, also drove in from Charlotte for this 4-wheeler adventure. It was a VERY dusty day, but we all had a wonderful time. I'm looking forward to next weekend already!

Scripture Sunday

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. - Ephesians 2:8-9
