Happy Birthday, Grayson!

We have some creative boys in this household who like to mess around with video technology. Here's the silly video Tait and Chris made for Grayson's bday. Boy humor--they giggle every time!




Merry Christmas, Nana and Papa!

This year Chris's parents proposed a cool idea: rather than buying them Christmas gifts, they asked that we would bless someone else instead. So our family was able to support a sweet refugee family in our city through Sports Outreach (the same ministry we travel to Africa with). It was a joy to have the opportunity to personally meet, greet and deliver Christmas gifts to Luon, Ayoi and their family. Plus a powerful testimony for our kids! Merry Christmas, Nana and Papa!

For some reason the video clip is getting cut-off when it's embedded into the blog. Double-click on the video to make it screen size or you can also watch the video here!

Family Fun

Family outing to Carowinds, our amusement park!



Big night Uptown seeing Mary Poppins! We all managed to stay awake during the whole performance (with the help of M & M's, soda and coffee at intermission)

Uncle Matt Graduates








We had a fun weekend in High Point celebrating Matt's graduation! It seems like he just moved down to Charlotte and graduated from Charlotte Christian. Everyone's grown a bit since then (bigger families, bigger muscles and bigger hearts for Him)--praise our Faithful God!

A few glitches in uploading this slideshow...but I've been wrestling with it for too long (I mean it's almost Valentine's Day). Enjoy!

Presenting Movie Night at the Allen Theatre

Tait and Grayson kicked off the month of celebrations with their Movie Night birthday party. We were thankful to have a house full of boys and some special out-of-town guests (Uncle Matt, Uncle Marky Boy, Aunt Jenn and Grandma Sue). Chris set up the projector in the playroom and we had an official movie screen! Wallets and cash (thanks for the "mola", Nana and Papa) were the party favors...which kept our concession stand quite busy throughout the movie!
