Family
Mother’s Date and Lucy Kate
Among my busy life and natural disasters, another excuse for not updating my blog is I have been having problems getting my picture album software to work. It is working now, and I hope it will stay that way. My first niece, Lucy Kate Hagerman, came into the world last week on my birthday, May [...]
Just a few things going on…
I really do like the idea of writing in my blog, but this season of life is busy, busy busy. How about a quick round up in case I don’t write again for another 6 weeks. Jacob had a wellness check up this week. Measures 3’11″ and 50 lbs. Very healthy and “normal” for his [...]
Enjoying It While It Lasts
Today, two great reminders of this special season of life. First, Ava, who has recently developed into an excellent kisser, wanted to kiss all of the parts of my head. My eyes, my ears, my nose, my chin. I gladly let her. Her wet lips on my cheek and the pop of her smooch are [...]
Christmas 2009
Here are a whole bunch of pictures from this year’s Christmas. Start with a little Christmas gathering with our friends Bill Emeott, Jeff and Abbey Land. Then Christmas morning at our home after Santa visited and then with my parents. Enjoy and have a great new year.
October in Orange Beach
I wish I had my camera yesterday at the beach. It was a really beautiful day. Got there about 5:30 and stayed for nearly an hour until dark. Kids had a blast playing. Jacob likes to “jump” over the waves as they come in. Me and him had a good time out in the ocean. [...]
My Labor Day Weekend
I saw my Dad have a heart attack. My parents came down on Thursday evening. We had dinner together, caught up a little and then headed to bed. My dad had some chest pains in the last few days, but they were light and passing. He has a history of heart disease and a had [...]
Painting Pictures of Egypt
I am sure you have been anxiously awaiting my posts on my time as a bachelor last week. Why didn’t I post? Was it because I was using my free time reading great novels? Was it because I was using my free time praying and fasting? Was it because I was using my free time [...]
Being a Bachelor
My wife and children are visiting family this week. My work is especially busy this time of the year, and I could not take off to join them. Thus, I am a bachelor for a week. Have to confess here at the 12 hour point: I am not quite sure what to do with myself. [...]
Two Shout Outs
On a late Saturday night, we are getting things ready to go to church tomorrow. Will probably visit FBC of Gulf Shores tomorrow. I do want to give two quick shout outs to two people of whom I am very proud. First, my sister is out of the country in Peru on a mission trip [...]
Happy 7th Anniversary
Today was our first full day in OB, and it was lovely. It was especially wonderful as it was our 7th wedding anniversary. I am truly blessed to have Shannon. She is an amazing wife and my best friend. Shannon and Jacob went to the beach for about 2 hours today and had a blast. [...]
