One year and a half

Yes, I am well aware that I have been on a blogging hiatus for a year and a half.  We had some issues going on between then and now to say the least.  I did blog on caringbridge.com during Nathan's diagnosis, treatment and checkup schedule and I hope I was able to keep everyone updated.  I will continue to post on caringbridge about upcoming scans and results and I will probably put the same info on here as well.  (Next Scan May 9th)

I just wanted to re-start blogging here because we are trying to live each day as normal as possible.  We have been so blessed by God and we are so grateful.  We are so busy with our lives, going places, doing things and just having fun and enjoying being with our friends and family. 

Mattie is so involved in church activities and travel softball.  We went to Birmingham last weekend for a 2 day tournament.  Won 2 games and lost 2.  The girls did great!  She plays for North Alabama Rockets 03 (2003 was the year all the girls were born).  They were the only 03 team in the tournament.  The other teams were 2002, so they did very well to say the least!   Next tournament March 26.

Now that I am looking at the calendar, I remember my very first blog which was on my birthday in 2008 (go here to see).  Anyway, my birthday is in 2 days, maybe I have some sort of self-reflecting disorder that peeks around my birthday, who knows?  I just read that post and CANNOT believe 3 years has passed that fast.

And because we felt like we have to much spare time, Matt decided to coach Nathan's first T-ball team, The Giants.  He has had one practice and loves it.  Of course, he has been at the ballpark since he was born.  After his first practice he told all his family members that he hit the ball over the fence, what he didn't tell them was he was about 5 feet away from the fence and it was a wiffle ball....gotta love that kid.

So, that about sums up what we are up to at the present time.  If you ever wonder what we are doing during the week; church, ball, ball, church, ball, ball, ball.  But, we love it and there is nothing we would rather be doing.



Crazy Hair Day for Dr. Seuss' Birthday, had to leave early due to pink eye.

Oh and by the way; I have the cutest niece ever!  She and Nathan have so much fun together!

Time seems to go by so much faster once you have kids huh? I think it's because there's now such a definitive way to measure it when you see how much they change so quickly! So glad Nathan is doing so well! You guys are in our prayers often!
