All star first game.
Go 13!
Supporting the one we LOVE
Introducing Mr.Baseball, mommy’s favorite number 13, my favorite player…
Tried center field, third, first, and second base, currently playing pitcher.
He plays the spot of the pitcher but the coaches do the pitching. In one game he was able to get five of the balls from the hitters, throwing the ball to the first baseman getting the runners out! (That’s him in the down and ready pose between the two men.)
I am so proud of him learning the game, trying something new, and having fun!
We found this newspaper clipping of his daddy pitching
This clipping of his daddy playing first base
Awesome pictures of little Stevie Hall…our hero!
The two of them on the field. His daddy kept the score books for the team.
An awesome season and his first ever trophy!
On to the batting cages for practice…
He was selected for the South Jefferson All Stars Team!
South Jefferson’s Third Baseman
Sweet child of mine…
Full of love, my growing baby girl!
My favorite season, a time for us to honor the soil on which we stand.
Time for onions
A time for potatoes
My daddy loves this process but we do as well! A time to get dirty and create, and fill our plates.
Can’t wait to show the after shot in a few months!
He thrives on helping Papaw in the garden.
Look at these beautiful peas!
Little pea pods
The beets and onions are really growing. They all love to pull the beets, it’s a contest as to who gets the biggest one!
Can’t forget the cleaning power on the perimeter of gardens. Jackson has wanted to actually be allowed to do this skill for as long as I can remember!
Zucchini picking
The five of them were racing in and out of every vine to see who could find the biggest and he most of the veggies. I hope the stomping of the vines will not halt their production!
These five have so much fun stomping in the mud, getting dirty, and just being together! Summer…
Mixing it up a bit, we took from our bounty and tried our hand at creating a zucchini person.
Isabela chose a squash for her designing
I like this sweet picture of Jaydie!
ta-da…summer and cousins are the best!
Full of love, my growing baby girl!

She just rescued a frog and returned it to the big pond
Jackson is growing so tall in front of my very eyes.
The blooms of spring are amazing.
We visited Billy Graham’s Library and were blessed to be exposed at how he has influenced the whole world with his words.
I love opening their eyes to the world around them and for the significance of prayer in their everyday life.
Oh, my sweet heartbeat, all of my loves!

I am so very grateful for my days!
My favorite number 13, my lucky boy, my little man ready for basketball!
Every Saturday morning at 9:00 a.m., for the past two months, Jackson was cheered on by his favorite fans!
Each quarter would begin with a meet and match up with the opposition.
At half-time the all were gathered for an inspirational message delivered by the community. A mini lesson about life and choices for living a quality childhood while incorporating prayer.
A thrilling season for the whole family!
Meeting new friends, learning to be part of something bigger than himself, and receiving all of he special stars that represent the different aspects of the sport including sportsmanship and Christlike…a true blessing!
Thank you Lord for his health, for his spirit, and for his desire to learn, compete, and participate!
