Floyd's 80th Birthday / Basketball
Greetings!
How are you today?
We had a FULL weekend - the last weekend of January; can you believe it? Time is flying by - hang on tight!
CJHS held a basketball tournament this weekend and the 8th grade team that Aric's on won 1st place - YAHOO! The last two games were down to the last minute competition - a real nail-biter! LOL Proud of these guys! They really needed this boost - it is well-deserved!
KV's family also celebrated Floyd's 80th birthday this weekend. Floyd is his step-dad; he has been fighting some major health issues with vision ;macular degeneration and prostate cancer. We are truly blessed with him in our lives and this was a perfect time to celebrate with family.
Also, this was the first time in a while that Melissa (KV's sister) was here in Childress - had to grab a family picture! She works in retail - so the holidays are impossible for her to come home. We were excited to have her family here for a much needed visit. This picture turned out great!
Here are some more pictures from the 80th Celebration!
Wishing you a great week ahead! Next post will be our JANUARY Card Swap! The challenge this month was to make a card with the theme of SNOW or VALENTINE! This is the first swap of 2014 - know it will be a good one, so come on back to see some fabulous cards!
Thanks for stopping by! Remember to hug the ones you love the most, until next time...
This blog is mainly about our family. Kyle will do a "hodge-podge" of items. Melissa will frequently post recipes, art projects, pics, card projects, articles ... and the boys...The "A Team" hmmm~ we shall see! Let us know what you think. We love to receive your comments and emails! (~:
Blogging is fun and is an outlet - I am just like you! My days are full of "to do's", morning till night. Sound familiar? When I DO find the time in the day, I love crafting - totally into paper-crafting at the moment (6 years!). That's why my blogs are often full of the projects that I'm working on. As a mom to 4 males(1 at-home son, 2 college sons and 1 husband), that time is often limited. I have been creating art items, cards, doo-das, painting, claying, anything "artsy-fartsy" ALL my life. Each one different from the last. It is something I truly enjoy.
You could even say it is a passion. Part of that passion has been sharing with others and attempting to teach them - hence my 2nd job of teaching Art in the high school and often my clubs and other groups that I'm involved in - it's just who I am. I am very lucky to be able to live in a small town and share! So! Please don't think that I'm a "kiss up" or trying to out-do someone else... I'm giving to give... I make things to give - it's just me!
