Trip to Cumberland Island-May 26, 2006


"The group" in front of Dungeness

These are the pictures from my digital camera. I took 4 rolls of film on the other camera. I'm planning on getting those developed & put on a cd so that I'm able to add those for everyone to see as well. As soon as I get them back I'll post them for you to look at! BTW you can click the pictures to enlarge!

Ch-ch-ch-changes

Wow...there's a lot going on around here. Megan is graduating high school next Tuesday. We went to her awards night last night. A 2 .5 hour long awards night...needless to say she is graduating with a bunch of high achievers! Definitely a good thing! I'm so proud of my little sister! Here is a pic from last night:
Meg @ Awards night with her sash awarded for High-Honors

She was awarded a scholarship to Florida Southern University for $24,000. I just think that's so awesome. She's definitely worked hard and Lord has provided the means for her to go away for college , she really wanted to be able to have that experience.

There will definitely be more pictures to come with the coming events of her graduation. She found out today that she is graduating #21 which is so amazing. She's in the top 10% of her class. During graduation she will be sitting on the front row, which will provide wonderful photographic opportunities for all! (lol, Yes!) I'm so excited for her. All her hard work has really paid off. I just think it's so amazing to know out of 320+ students she's #21 to graduate! Another thing that makes it even more amazing in my eyes, is that the valedictorian has a 4.5 GPA...which shows how well Megan has done to graduate so close to the #1 spot! (I don't know exactly what her GPA is but I know that it's over 4.0)

Ok enough doting over my lil sister (this is just such an exciting time!)

On another note...please keep me in your prayers. I have a lot of decisions to make in the very new future. I just pray that the Lord guides my heart so I will follow His direction with the plans for the future. I am taking my last class right now to receive my AA and am planning on transfering to a University. That is where I need prayer. I know that the Lord will open the right doors for me...I believe I see where He is guiding me and in that case I have a lot of work ahead of me to get papers in & all that jazz. So please keep me in mind, while I try and organize and get everything worked out.

I'm so excited for next week, for Meg's graduation. I'm looking forward to getting together with so many friends & family...can't wait to see everyone!

Love ya!

"I got soul but I'm not a soldier, I got soul but I'm not a soldier"


Too freakin' cute!

Ok the story behind this adorable picture. Well let's see...my mom gave Wyatt this dog -tag necklace of her to him to play with & he loved playing with it. He kept putting it on and off. Well he also really liked wearing his daddy's hat, so my mom bought him a hat his size. (the one in the picture)

So the morning that we were getting ready to do an easter egg hunt for wyatt we put his hat on & he was playing with the necklace. When I saw him (for the first time with the dog tag necklace) I said "You look like a soldier!" And then I started singing part of "The Killers" song "All the things that I've done"(a really good song by the way) to him b/c that part goes...."I got soul, but I'm not a soldier". So we were dancing around & I was singing that with/to him(Wyatt with his cute hat & necklace on)then I got the brilliant idea to turn the cd on to that part of the song because he was enjoying it so much.

I put the cd in & he loved it! He started dancing, it was ADORABLE!!! With the hat on sideways & the dog-tags on! TOO cute. He just stood there infront of the cdplayer dancing to the music & let me replay that part of the song a bunch of time & wasn't distracted! The best part was when his dad, & grandma & grandpa came in & were watchingh him dance. He's just like Andrew he loves to make other people laugh & when they were all laughing & smiling at him he just got more into it!

So now you know the store behind this adorable picture! And if you want, check out the song by The Killers-All the things that I've done b/c it's incredible!

Wyatt & his Tante (Megan)


Wyatt demonstrating the "Alb/Mayfield" nose scrunch. My grandma always does it, my dad always does it, we (me, my sis & bro) do it & then when Wy was here last time I said "Hey Wyatt" & scrunched my nose & he did it back! I thought it was pretty cute. ( I know alot of people probably do that but I think it's kinda special since we all do it!) It's not the best picture I was all the way across the room from him but the purpose behind it is pretty sweet! I think it's pretty sweet that he does the :"Alb/Mayfield" nose scrunch! ;)

Me & wy (it's a little out of focus but it's a cute pic!)

I love this picture....Wy's strutting over to where his three cousins were skateboarding.....so cute!

"I'm gonna put my sippy-cup down and skateboard like my big cousins!"

"Ok let's see here, how does this work"

"I've almost got it Aunt Jess, see...I'm a big boy like my cousins!"

Wyatt's First Easter Egg Hunt


"Let's see what's in here."

"Hey you, I got the easter egg"

"I'm going to throw the easter egg...."

"Yeah that's right Aunt Jessica I'm playing with the grass instead of my easter eggs!"

"Ohhh wow look at this grass"

"....a leaf?"

"noooo, I don't want to play with that"

silly cousins joking around
