TCPS golf

 Reed put in some time on the course for TCPS this fall. Again….we loved the season change!  








It was beyond freezing and windy at the state tournament. We made it the entire year, and these two days were terrible weather! Oh well.

THS golf

 Golf season got moved to the fall this year, and it was a welcomed change!! The weather was better, the courses were in great shape, the kids had been playing through the summer. It was a good move! 


It got really slow during this round, so William and his group found a porch and snack and took a break. 



The lowest round on the books at Tupelo. 


Wes had already changed by the time they took a post round pic.

Niland’s wedding

 When one of your favorite babysitters gets married and asked you to be her wedding pianist, you say yes! 

Rehearsal dinner


A rare moment when we were both dressed up 


Good looking musicians 



Post reception with the cousins (Wes and Reed had already given up)

He is legal

 18 years for this easy going, sarcastic, amateur chef, physics loving, music nerd. I don’t know where he’ll end up next year (he’s looking at all of the places!), but he’s been a fun one to have around for 18 years! Happy birthday to my legal adult! He needed another instrument, so now we have a melodica! And, we were beyond tired just one week after Chase’s surgery, so Coppie’s chocolate pie and ice cream was a perfect birthday “cake!”

lake time

 We spent the first weekend of school at the lake with the other brothers. It was a much needed mental rest before the upcoming week of chase's surgery, and they all always have a blast behind a boat….or driving it!
