CCA Baseball







This year Don is coaching high school baseball at Cahawba Christian and Tyler's minor league SBDY team. We haven't had a team at CCA in about 5 or 6 years, so we are really excited. It has been hard starting up this sport and getting the field ready. But, it has been worth it already. Tyler is the official batboy! And the best I might add. He really likes being in the dugout with the big boys. He totaly thinks he is one of them now. So, most of our life is spent at a ballfield somewhere! But we wouldn't want it any other way. I continue to pray that God will bless the school and give us more oportunities to reach children! Go Chargers!!

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!







Everyone at my house loved waking up to a snow covered yard! It was falling so hard and so fast. Don had woke Tyler and myself up, telling us to go see the snow; he wasn't sure if it would last long. So, Tyler and Don bundled up and I headed out with robe, slippers and camera in hand. You could tell I didn't plan on sliding in it like the boys! I was just there to take pictures and drink coffee. Bella (our yorkie), loved the snow. It doesn't seem like she did when you see the picture of snowballs stuck to her feet. But I promise, as soon as I would wash her with warm water and get them off, she would go to the front door and cry to go right back out! So, that went on three or four times, wash, cry, go back, wash, cry, go back; until finally I had washed more than I cared to and made her stay in. Don and Tyler had homemade sleds (boogie boards) and slid down the hills several times. Tyler kept falling off and getting mad about falling off but he finally got the hang of it. He also made two snowmen and a snow angel. I wouldn't let anyone on the back deck so I could tell how much snow had fell at the end, and in the end it was 3". We had lots of fun and are now ready for Spring!
