First I introduce you to Pearce the oldest brother. He will be finishing his 3rd grade year very soon. He has had a wonderful year! Baseball filled our fall months while football filled our time this spring. However, all the year long we have worked on his achievements to earn rank and last week he was promoted to a Weeblo! He had an awesome 9 year old birthday and party where he played Laser Tag followed by a sleepover with a camping theme! Pearce also without a doubt showed us that he is becoming a young man. In April he walked to the front of our church and made the decision to accept Jesus as his savior and was baptized in the following weeks. I cannot even explain in words how proud I am of Pearce and what a blessing it has been to be a part of his choice. I'm so very thankful God chose me to teach him about Our Lord and Savior. I of course can't take all of the credit for it my family has been a wonderful influence on him as well. Enjoy Pearce's last year at a glance:
Lucas (Luke) currently the youngest but soon to be a new big brother! Lucas just completed Pre-K and will be joining Pearce at the elementary school next year as a Kindergartner!!! Lucas too played baseball this past fall as well as this spring. Lucas acts as if he was born to play baseball. He walks with a strut while on the field and stands with the most confidant stance a 4 year old could have while batting. He watches the Texas Rangers so often towards the end of the season I record some of the games so he can still watch them during the off season. He has grown in his baseball skills significantly this spring and we can't wait to see him play in the fall!! Lucas will be 5 very soon and I'm ready to see what the next year will bring him. Lucas is a very loving boy who wishes he could be just as big and just as old as Pearce. He will soon, but for now I enjoy him still being small enough to crawl in my lap and wanting to hold me and kiss me. It doesn't always last long, but its enough for me.

I can't mention Pearce, Lucas, and our soon to arrive new little brother without mentioning Paul. Paul and I are expecting baby Jonathan in July. We met at a friends wedding a year ago this month, met again this exact week last year, and finally made our way to a first date that was soon followed by a second and a third to only lead to our engagement on New Years Eve! Paul is a wonderful man who has brought to our family a heart full of love and security. He is wonderful with Pearce and Lucas and I know he will be a wonderful father to Jonathan. Our friends take the credit for us getting together and we thank them for finally letting our paths collide. But, Paul and I believe we were meant to finally meet at this point in our lives as we have realized we have crossed paths so many times in the last 10-15 years. In a year Paul and I have traveled a wonderful journey together already and I look forward to many more years to come. Here's a look at our journey together so far:
