"the first's"




Time just seems to be flying by....
I am starting to freak out just a little as both of my girls are growing up so fast and I am not ready for them to be an adult when it comes to Alex's and in middle school for Kiara!

We had quite a busy wee!!!!! Rhett went to Pebble Beach and golfed with his buddy, Kiara and I went to the beach and had a wonderful day. Alex had her first college soccer game and 1st day of school. Kiara had her first day of school and before the week is over she will also have a soccer tournament. If you are exhausted reading it, you should try living it :)

We are very blessed to have such an amazing life and even though it is crazy we like it that way. My dear sweet family calls me, texts me or skype's me everyday and I miss them all so much!! I can't wait for them to visit in September!

That's all for now....we are expecting our 1st hurricane to hit this weekend so wish us luck!

North Carolina


WOW...what a couple weeks we have just had! We sold our house YEA, the girls and I drove cross-country, we dropped Alex off at college and we now live in North Carolina. We have had so much going on I haven't even had enough to wrap my head around all the changes that have taken place.

I guess let's start with Alex...She is a rock star and we are so very proud of her. She is playing soccer at Columbia and is so missed around our house. It is hard to believe my baby is a freshman in college. We sent her a care package today as she is missing her family and getting a little home sick. However, we are VERY proud of what she has accomplished!!! Go Alex :) http://www.gokoalas.com/landing/index (she made the athletic page)



Now Kiara, she made her old soccer team in NC and we were so excited for her. They are an amazing team and they have welcomed her back with open arms. She is playing great and learning even more! She starts 7th grade next week...where does the time go???

I have attached some photos of our new rental house per Heidi's request and I am getting very excited to see my family as they all come out for a visit in October to see the girls play and visit. We are very thankful for Skype so we can keep in touch with the family and can't wait for Heidi to get her camera so I can see my amazing nieces and nephews! Jaxon...it's on it's way!

Thanks all for now!
