Here is the wedding cake and also the Groom's cake. The Groom's mother (my Sis-In-Law) made them. (Of course it took a man like myself to drizzle/run the chocolate on the Groom's cake. Women can't do this kind of thing properly!)
Grandma Satterfield went on home to Heaven last night. She had struggled quite a while and had been in a nursing home for several months. She will be sadly missed but it is great to know exactly where she is!!
Please pray for my Mom. She had taken care of Grandma daily for several years. This will be very hard on her! Remember the other kids too!!
Mikayla had an awesome year in 3rd grade! She finished up the year with all "A"-Honor Roll for the entire year, as well as scoring perfect scores (600) on all four of her national standardized tests. She and one other girl (in Susan's class) were the only two to do this in 3rd grade. We are very,very proud of her accomplishments!!
Mikayla has become quite the actor. She starred in "Dreams", which was a play that was produced during Summer Enrichment Camp this week. This is her second year to be invited to this camp which is headed up by Vicky Towne, a theater artist from Philadelphia, PA. Last fall Mikayla starred in "Granny Mosely Saves The Day" with the local theatre guild. This play was also developed and directed by Vicky Towne. Mikayla has a lot of fun doing this as a hobby. She received the "Best Actor" award in the "Dreams" show presented today.
Natalie had a big day on May 19th! She had a birthday and also graduated from Pre-K at Fairview Elementary. She received a diploma along with several gifts and awards which were the "Most Excited About Math" award, "Ready to Read" award and the "Snuggle-Bug" award! She did really well and can read "Green Eggs and Ham" all by herself!!! We are proud of her!!
Natalie celebrated her 5th birthday with family and friends.She had a Strawberry Shortcake cake and received lots of nice gifts.She is really excited about being 5 years old!
Natalie enjoyed a fun day with her class at Lazy-5 Ranch. They rode a horse-drawn wagon and were able to feed and pet the animals. One big highlight was that "Brother", as Natalie calls him (Pastor Ledford), drove her school bus.
Mom and Dad came down to visit this this weekend. I think they are getting tired of all the snow and wanted to see some signs of spring. We had a great time with them. Sam and Treena came over for Saturday and Sunday. Here are a few pictures from the weekend.
We celebrated the birthdays of all three kids while they were here!! Happy Birthday to Natalie, Mikayla and Justin!!!
Mom and Dad gave Natalie an "I spy!" book. They spent a lot of time poring over it trying to find the various objects.
Susan's Granny passed away early this morning. She had been very frail for a couple of years, and had been in a nursing home for a year now. She will be greatly missed!! We Love You Granny!!
Life is wonderful in the South. We love spending time together as a family, whether at home or on vacation. I am a product engineer, while my wife is a public school teacher. The girls attend school in the same school where she teaches, and both of them love school a lot!
