Eli and Brady's Baptism - October 16th

Sunday, October 16th, 2016, Eli (age 10) and Brady (age 8) decided to give their lives to the Lord and put him on in baptism.  They were baptized at Landmark Church of Christ in Montgomery, Alabama. My parents, Don and Pam Belcher (Papa and Nana to the boys), were able to be there as well. Bill was able to baptize both boys. This is a very proud moment and special day for both Bill and myself. I am so thankful and blessed that they both chose Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.  I pray that the Lord will guide them and protect them for their entire lives. My continuous prayer for them is that they will able to be Daniel in a Babylon world. In addition, our family's theme verse is Micah 6:8 "What does the Lord require of you, oh man? To act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God." Every night before the boys go to sleep, Bill says "Be a Man!" And the boys respond, "ACT JUSTLY, LOVE MERCY, WALK HUMBLY!" May it always be so. I love you both more than you could ever know!

Pumpkin Patch - October 10th

Columbus Day 2016 means its time to go to the Pumpkin Patch! We had an awesome day as a family! This is our 4th trip out to Dreamfield Farms, about 45 minutes from Montgomery. Every year, they have added a little more to do and see! The boys had a great time playing in the hay and trying out the various activities, including the corn maze! Then they each picked out their own little pumpkin and a big family pumpkin. This year's family pumpkin was named "Thor". Such a fun day! I love spending time with these boys. We have such fun together!

First day of school!

Brady - 3rd grade

August 9th - Meet the Teacher

It's that time of year again! Time to start school at Alabama Christian Academy in Montgomery, Alabama. For the 2016-2017 school year, Major (age 5) will be in preK, and his teacher is Mrs. Clifton.  He is very excited to be at "big school" with the rest of his family. Brady (8) will be in 3rd grade, and his teacher is Mrs. Ingram (whom Eli also had in 3rd grade). Eli (10) will be in 5th grade, and his time will be divided between Mrs. Chappell, who teaches Math, Science, and History, and Mrs. Mulkey, who teaches English (Language Arts), Reading, and Bible. Eli was so excited to have a locker for the first time! I thought he'd need some help, but he got it on the first try. He is so ready to be the "big man on campus". I cannot believe it is his last year of elementary school! It is true what they say, they grow up way too fast!
