PWF Broiler Show

The Piney Woods Fair was a couple of weeks ago and we started it off with the broiler show. Emory and Cason's broilers both did well, with Cason placing 5th and Emory 6th out of 45 pens of chickens. I however was busy holding chickens and only managed to snap a picture of Eli at the show, so we improvised when we got home! 

While shopping for buyers gifts for the premium sale, I found Christmas chicken wrapping paper, of course I bought a roll! 

Junior High Soccer

Junior High soccer ended a couple of weeks ago. It was a long hot season, but both kids played great. We won some and lost some, and both Emory and Cason learned a thing or two! 

 Eli brought the battery fan to a game, he definitively had the right idea!  

Emory was co-captain this year with Liam and Jake. 

When you play on a turf pitch you get high hair! 

The JH Team

First Day of School

Last Tuesday was the first day of school! 

Eli is in FIRST grade this year and his teacher is Mrs. Chapman. Mrs. Chapman told me Friday at the soccer game that she wants to kidnap him for a couple of days because she just loves his personality and stories. 

Cason is in 6th grade this year and his teachers are Mrs. Austin, Mrs. McMorries, and Mrs. Sowell. 

This is what I got when I asked for a real smile! 

Emory is in 8th grade this year. Her teachers are Mrs. Beauregard, Ms. Burklin, Mrs. Sowell, Mrs. McLemore, Mr. Eggleston, Mr. Brewer, & Mrs. Lasater. 

She wasn't a huge fan of holding up 8 fingers. 

Meet Bo

Yesterday we got a border collie puppy to add to our craziness. Meet Bo. He has the sweetest blue eyes and so far has been very good and super sweet. Lucy and Gerti gave me a what were you thinking look when we brought him home, but so far they all are getting along, even though Lucy has had her moments of annoyance. 

 

FBC First Grade Breakfast

Yesterday at church Eli had his first grade breakfast and received his Bible from Melanie. He was super excited to get his Bible and had a new Bible cover in the Amazon cart before church even started. Big kids hall here he comes!
