AJHS Awards Day

Awards Day at Arab Junior High School. You can see that all three boys are stellar! Chase and Jack were recognized for being in Scholar's Bowl, Chase had the highest score in his science class, and Strat came in 2nd in the school's geography bee. WOW!

This is Chase, Jack and their friend Derek Ryan. Don't they all looked really, really glad to be there? haha

Jack wanted to be checked out after the awards program, so the four of us when to Huddle House for breakfast. It was a great morning!

Jim and Strat make guitar

This was for a school project ... science, I think. Strat had to make a musical instrument that played three distinct notes. He and Jim had a pretty good time making it.

Chase gets braces

This was a long process, but Chase finally got his braces on! Some of these pics hurt to look at!

Ourtdoor Fire

We don't build a fire very often in the fire pit, but when we do, it's loads of fun. It was cold, cold, cold this night. We roasted marshmallows and had a fun family time.

Strat turns 14

I have NO idea why Strat is shirtless or why I allowed it, but here he is!

You can see that someone evidently told him to cover his "parts" with the cards. He is about to crack up!

Jack and Chase turn 13!

Looks like they are ready to get the party started!

One cake with 26 candles.

The boys and their beloved Mamo. This is mama's FaceBook picture!

Opening presents. Mostly cards...you know what THAT means!
