First Day Of Kindergarten


                                               
Hollis started kindergarten today.  He is in Mrs. Edwards class and the assistant is Mrs. Sisk.  He is going to Brookside with his mom.  He had a great day and has already made a new friend!  We are so proud of him and cannot believe how fast time has gone by.  When he was asked if he learned anything today, he said, "I don't really know....No. No we didn't."

Summer At Grandma and Papa's House

This summer was definitely a lot of fun.  We went to Disneyland and Everett really enjoyed his first trip. Hollis rode the new Star Tours and even went on Indiana Jones.  We made two trips to the zoo and saw all of our favorite animals.  We went bike riding at Santee Lakes and Lake Murray and even rode on a pedal boat.  We rode the trolley to go have lunch with Phil.  We got to hang out with Uncle Tim, Aunt Linda and Josh for  couple of days.  Josh camped outside on the deck with Hollis.  What a nice cousin!  We all went to the beach and then wandered around the Hotel Del Coronado and Old Town.  Most of our time was spent swimming in the pool and Hollis learned how to swim.  We really enjoyed getting to spend time with family, but now it is back to work and school.

TBall Banquet



Hollis' banquet was at the Gastonia Grizzlies Baseball game. He got all of the players autographs and it was the first baseball game that he had ever been to. Despite it being really hot, we all had a lot of fun. Most importantly, Hollis received his very first trophy!
We can't wait to sign up for TBall next season.
