SUMMER IS OVER

Our summer is officially over now. It seems like it was so short but at the same time it was full and enjoyable. We just finished our first week of school. Paige is in her last year of Alcorn Nursing School (actually she starts next week), Aaron is a Senior this year and going to Cathedral High School, Daniel is a Sophmore and also going to Cathedral High School, and I'm homeschooling the rest. This is my 17th year in homeschooling. Hannah is in the 8th, Benjamin is the 2nd and Bethany in the 1st.

I guess the 2 biggest highlights around here are 1) Aaron just got a new vehicle. It's a 2003 Nissan X-Terra and the coolest thing around!!! It has a lot of extra features on the outside which makes it more cool looking than the regular X-Terra. If I knew how to post pictures on this thing I would!! There is a long story behind this vehicle but the moral of the story is that God led us to this vehicle and every circumstance behind it was HIM and all HIM!!!! Everytime I look at this vehicle now I can't but help feel God's love. 2) My nephew got married in Texas. Real sweet wedding and very sweet couple.

Both my boys are playing football this year. This is Daniel's second year to play and Aaron decided to play also. He didn't want too because baseball is his sport but since this is his last year of school, I persuaded him too. We had a Jamboree last night and each team only played one quarter. We lost 14 to 8 but do you know who made our teams one and only touch down? That would be MY son, Aaron White!!! That was sooooooo exciting. I can't wait to see them play the rest of the season - both my boys. Our first "real" game is in the end of August.

Most everyone is back in school now. May God bless all your children this year and keep them in His hands!!
