Dear Santa.....


The kids were able to visit Santa and it was a huge treat for them! They were able to sit on Santa's lap, make snowflake cookies, see a life size gingerbread house and paint an ornament. What an exciting night and a great way to kick off the Christmas season.

So Thankful






Our family truly is blessed beyond measure! I am reminded of this every year as we celebrate Thanksgiving together. We celebrated at the lake. Wonderful food, gorgeous weather and most of all our family were just a few of the things we were thankful for last Thursday. It is a blessing that both of our families celebrate this holiday together. We hope you and your family enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving as well.

Pilgrims, Indians and Barn Dancing

 
 
 
 
The kids had a wonderful time celebrating Thanksgiving at school. The kindergarten classes sang wonderful Thanksgiving songs and dressed as pilgrims and Indians. Samuel's class enjoyed a barn dance with the parents. Lots of celebrating and lots of fun!

Happy Halloween


Halloween was such a fun evening for the kids. Emma was Cinderella, Samuel was a football player and Wilson was a ghost. Wilson's friend, Sam, joined us for the fun dressed as a fireman. The kids LOVED all the yummy candy.....even in the rain they had a blast!!

Happy Fall from the Echols


We enjoyed a GORGEOUS fall day by taking a day trip to Uncle Shuck's Pumpkin Farm and the waterfalls. It was a perfect day full of sunshine, fall leaves and fun.
