Susanna can be as rough and tumble as any of the boys. But she does have some sweet, little mama instinct in there too.

Susanna, Sam and Evelyn Christmas 2018
Cousins make everything more fun. And what could be more fun than a giant cardboard box?!
Luke Playing the French Horn
Luke joined the school band in Fall of 2018. He was given the French Horn as his instrument. He has risen to the challenge since then for sure. This is a video of one of his first attempts.
Luke's Homerun
Of all the homeruns that Luke and Eli have hit, I have only caught two on video. Both were Luke's. Always exciting!
Susanna Singing Silly Songs
While we wait on her brothers to finish their music lesson, Susanna finds ways to amuse herself.
Judah and Luke Making Music Together
For a season, Luke was taking piano lessons, Eli guitar lessons and Judah drum lessons. At one lesson, Judah and Luke were having a little jam time together.
Susanna and Grandaddy
Susanna loves to go to Georgia to spend time with Grandaddy and Grandma. All the snuggles, mac n cheese and Peppa Pig she wants.
Chickens, Round 2
The first round of chickens got picked off one by one. This is round 2. Unfortunately, they didn't last long, but we got some cute video of them before their untimely departure.
Susanna Learning to Ride a Bike
I felt some mixed emotions at this moment. Your last baby learning to ride a bike is a little bit like when the last baby goes to kindergarten. It feels like letting her go a bit. But the sweetness of the boys celebrating with her wins out.
Little Susanna Working Her Karate Moves
This one goes way back to when Susanna was probably two. It still makes us all smile.
Eli Allstars 2018
At the end of the 2018 spring Little League season, Eli's was on the Allstar team. They won districts and went to sectionals. It was a really awesome experience and he was one of the best players on the team. It was fun to watch.
Eli's Fifth Grade Disney Trip
At the end of fifth grade, both Luke and Eli's classes went to Disney. I have nothing captured from Luke's trip, but I did get some video of the silliness of this group of boys from Eli's class. We spent the day at Animal Kingdom. It was a totally fun day.

Eli's Nashville Trip
Eli got to have a trip the to Nashville to visit Aunt Raeanna and Uncle Josh the year after Luke. We went in March of 2018.
We visited the Science Center and Eli enjoyed playing with all the different things there.
Eli got to "walk on the moon".
Aunt Raeanna was about 7 months pregnant with Rae Clair. She was a trouper.
Eli, of course, loved all the eating and drinking.
He got to go to the Predator's game and they sat right next to the penalty box. He even was on TV!
We got to be there for a baby shower for Raeanna at her work.
We did the escape room twice and solved the second one! Eli found the final clue that got us out.
Eli got a little silly while we were clothes shopping for him.
It was chilly while we were there. Just left over snow.
I love traveling with my Eli!
Eli at the County Track and Feild
Eli is such a natural athlete. He and Luke have been invited to the county track and field event to represent their school for the past several years.
Eli ran the mile event for his school in 5th grade in March 2018. He placed 5th out of about 30 kids. I might have been so proud I cried a little. :)
This is Eli doing the long jump in 6th grade at the middle school county event in March of 2019.
Kris Being My Hero
Kris is very brave and can kill a rattlesnake with a shovel at close range. But a roach, he might dance a bit. 😂
Eli Chasing Susanna
Eli and Susanna have this funny relationship. They're two peas in a pod, really. They have a great sense of humor, they see between the lines of most situations and they always find something to poke fun at. They're like their daddy in that way. But from early on, Eli has adored Susanna, many times showing it by picking on her. She quickly learned how to handle him and hold her own.
Chicken Laying an Egg
We have so loved having chickens. This was a cool moment when Eli caught video footage with his GoPro of a chicken laying an egg behind the AC handler.
Water Fun May 2017
Given that we live in Florida, we are always on or near water.
Judah caught a bass in Georgia
Lake Winnemissett Blob
Eli Free Throw Competition
Eli was chosen to represent Woodward Elementary in a free throw competition in May of 2017. He got 2nd place! (Absolute silence was required from the audience or they would be asked to leave!)
Judah's End of Year Programs for Kindergarten and First Grade
Since we're going way back, here's Judah's end of Kindergarten program in Mrs. Sapp's class in May of 2016.
And his end of 1st grade program in Mrs. Underhill's class in May of 2017.
Luke's 5th Grade Graduation Speech and Shrek Performance
Luke was Pinocchio in his 5th grade play, Shrek.
Luke received the honor of giving the speech for his 5th grade graduation in May of 2017. He got to wear the sports coat again, and he looked like a professional. 😊
