Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. and the peace of God which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

Happy 17th Drew!!

Happy 17th Birthday Drew!!!!
My once a year chance to show off the cute pictures of Drew!
At 10 months old Drew was as cute as a button! Notice the "Air Jordan" shoes. Being born in the midst of Micheal Jordan mania, it was to be expected. The destructive hurricane "Andrew" also hit the US the same year!!Drew and David at Stephen's wedding at about 3 years old. Notice the missing front tooth. That is what happens when you use the back of the couch as a balance beam!
Drew our little hunter at the earliest years. Here he is practicing bow shooting at 4 years old, while dressed in his ever present Davy Crockett hat and bandanna!
At 8 we are growing into a fine young man. Here showing off one of the many "Lego" creations.
I have always loved this picture of my "men"! They were quite the study cleaning their fish catch of the day!!!
Drew at the top of Mt. Theilson (about 8,000 feet) at about 11 years old.
Drew the football player in 6th and 7th grade. He played linebacker for the Indians one year the Mustangs another year. Then it was all running!
7th Grade science project. This bridge was supposed to break after just a little weight. Ha Ha! You should have seen all the 41 pounds it held!!Drew, Erinn and Danielle Christmas of 2006.

Drew para sailing in Mexico in 2007!

Eating escargot on the Mexico cruise in 2007!

Drew racing cross country his junior year!

Drew as State Cross Country Champion 2008!

Happy Birthday son! We are very happy to see the man you are becoming and look forward to what the Lord holds for you in the future!

"Listen to your father who begot you, and do not despise your mother when she is old. The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice and he who begets a wise child will delight in him. Let your father and your mother be glad, and let her who bore you rejoice." Proverbs 23: 22, 24-25
