Goodbye,
Yesterday, with just the family, we had a little service and said goodbye to Papaw. We talked about how our earthly body is just dust, but Papaw has a new body in heaven! Saturday we will celebrate your life with others. This day we said goodbye, really just see you later.
We love you Papaw. We are sad, sad that your not here, sad that we have to have death, sad that your great granddaughter is sad and trying to deal with the emotions of it all. Sad that there is now an empty seat at the little blue house that wont be filled with a man waving at you as you arrive. Sad for the hole that is left in all of our hearts.
But we also know this is life, 90 years of life, 70 with Nana, many years of love, affection and kindness that wont be forgotten. You now know life to the fullest, life without any physical ailments or limitations, and a mind that is clear again! Your now side to side with Savior, the one who shined out of your life. May my life shine with the love of Christ like yours did!
First Tooth!!
Katie lost her first tooth! She was so excited. Well until she was so tired after a long , full day and started crying before bed that it felt funny and she wanted it back in! lol!

Maybe I will post often, maybe only some. We will see.

Buck's Pocket State Park
In October we went camping in north eastern Alabama at Buck's Bocket State Park. It is a beautiful place off the beaten path. We met up with Ben's family and stayed the weekend.

Susan G Komen Race
In October we participated in the 5k Race for the Cure in Birmingham. It was a neat experience. So many people just walked so you didn't feel bad for being in the shape you were but I tried to walk/jog/run all through the race. I didn't think I did too bad. It was fun except that Ben beat me by 3 minutes:( and I didn't even see him pass me!

My class- 1st and 2nd grade activities
I have a great class this year. I only have a little class but I love them.
Prayer at the Pole!
We went to Stevi B's Pizza for our field trip. We joined 3rd and 4th grade.
It was a real neat experience. We got to walk in the back where they make dough, let it rise in the cooler and then watch them roll it in a special machine. They then went and finished their own pizza with toppings of their choice. They thought it was such a blast and I did too!
