Eli and Brady Awards' Day May 2017

The boys' last day of school was Tuesday, May 23rd. That day was also Awards Day. Brady received the award for making all A's and received the 3rd place award for AR Points. (AR stands for Accelerated Reader, it is the school's reading program.) At the end of this strand of pictures is Brady with his 3rd grade picture, Mrs. Ingram. He had a great 3rd grade year and we are ready for 4th grade!

Eli received his elementary school diploma and several awards as well. These awards included: Head of School Honor Roll (all As for the year), Academic Achievement Award (all As all elementary), Math Olympiad Participant Award, 5th grade Bible Award (top grade in Bible), Top AR Reader of the entire elementary school (he also received this award in 3rd grade). At the end of these pictures are pictures of Eli with his 5th grade teachers, Mrs. Chappell (blonde hair) taught math, Bible, and history and Mrs. Mulkey (brown hair) taught English, Literature, and Science. We can't wait to see what Eli can do in Middle School!

Major Makes Pancakes

I have had little boys sitting on counters helping me cook for a decade now. It never gets old. I love this.

Brady's 9th Birthday - May 15, 2017

Oh, my sweet little Brady-Bop. How I do love you! Brady is a loving, thoughtful, hardworking, encouraging, empathetic young man who loves God, loves people, and loves baseball! He is always asking if there is anything I need help with. He doesn't like it when other people are upset or getting in trouble and he looks for ways to make it better. He plays baseball or pretends baseball plays all the time. He even does instant replays and imagines entire World Series games by himself. I love his sweet spirit. It is very fitting that he had a baseball game on his birthday. It was a great birthday win! Happy birthday, little man!

Brady's Pool Party - May 2017

It's time for Brady's 9th birthday party! Brady asked for a pool party at Papa and Nana's house with some of his friends. The friends he invited were Chase Perry, Austin Bailey, Micah Kohring (Micah's big brother, Jonah, also came), and Riley Ferricker. The boys had a really good time! Brady said his favorite part was shooting hoops with Chase and Micah. I love how sweet these friends are together!

Major Up To Bat - May 2017

Love this little t-ball player! His favorite part was getting to hit the ball and run (well, that was his second favorite part. His actual favorite part was getting the snacks and drinks at the end of the game).

Eli as "Cogsworth" in Beauty and the Beast - May 2017

At Alabama Christian Academy, the 5th grade always puts on an end of the year play called "Spring Fling". This year, they did Beauty and the Beast. Eli portrayed the role of Cogsworth, the Clock. They did such a good job! It was so fun to watch them! Eli says his favorite part of the play was getting to scare the towns people when they came to attack the castle.
