Jordyn Cheers with BEHS

So the kid would not let me get ANY pictures of her because I’m the most embarrassing person on the planet.... but, she cheered the second half of the football game last Friday night. Afterward, seven girls joined her at home for a sleepover to celebrate her birthday early.  She has a sweet group of friends and they had a ball. Funny thing was we had to call Papaw in as reinforcement since Daddy had to work then take Mason to a Scout car show and I had to get Raelee to a XC meet. We knew they’d want to swim on Saturday morning, so he was there to manage the chaos. 😁 Such a good guy!

Raelee is Running Up

Over the summer, Raelee began running with high school, disappointed that there would no longer be a middle school XC program in Mt. Washington. Little did we know she’d blossom into a driven little runner. She’s put forth the work and has eased herself in with the sweetest kids she calls her teammates. Last weekend, she was all ready to run in her first high school meet at Tom Sawyer. While on the line, they cancelled due to “heat index”. We left disappointed, so bummed she couldn’t get this first race under her belt. This weekend was different. She left with her team, getting signed out of school early, on Friday, and loaded a van to Bowling Green to compete in The Gatorland Run. She roomed with Mia, Emma E and Emma L and bonded with them over some girl talk and ice cream. These four girls showed up for their meet today. They all placed in the Top 25 out of 168 runners. As a team, they brought home a 2nd place trophy. So proud of Raelee for earning the 23rd spot with a time of 22:09. Use this talent God has given you; get after it!  

Paying Tribute to DJ

We lost an amazing, witty, funny and loving man on Thursday, August 30th. While he’s fought a long battle with his heart, things were looking up. It was a shock to us all. We hurt for Kaye, Christie and Kenneth. We pray for love and comfort for them and DJs sweet nieces and nephew. He will be dearly missed.
