Arsenal World Cup-Here we come





Please keep our family in your prayers as we travel to London for Cody's 3v3 Arsenal Tournament! We're so excited to be honest I think I'm more excited than the Codeman!! I think it will hit him once he arrives and walks on the pitch at Emirates Stadium.........!!!!!!!!!

Go Jaguars











Making the transition from Bahrain to Saudi has worked out great for Cody! He was asked by the Basketball Coach to join the team. He was so excited that after physical education he asked his teacher if he could go to the restroom. He called me from there to tell me the great news. There were only 2 tournaments remaining. However, he was just thrilled to be asked to play for the junior high team. They have an awesome team. So I really didn't know how much playing time he would get. The tournament they hosted he ended up with 4 pts the first game, 2 pts the second game and 9 pts for the Championship game. We're so PROUD of him! There have been many changes in our lives these past few months and he's handled the transition the BEST!!




Look Whose Started Day Care








Devin has completed his first month of day care and he LOVES it!!! It's located in our compound (here in Saudi) and very convenient. There are a total of 8 boys. He'll wake up in the morning and say "okay let's get ready for school." It's become a routine for him to ask....Did Bubba go to school? Is Dada at work? What about Mr Dave is he at work? ("Mr Dave" is one of Jeremy's coworkers that is staying with us temporary while on a short job assignment.) I can't believe how time flies. He'll be three in a couple of months. He's definitely a handful but such a blessing! My friend Faith always says two is a difficult age but it's nothing that three can't fix. I need to remind myself to cherish the moment(s).
