A Trip to the Bahamas for Dad & Mom!!

The first week of May, we went to the Bahamas with Brett and Malanie Carter. Brett and Matt had a trip to Marsh Harbor, Abaco in the Bahamas and we were able to tag along. We stayed in Treasure Cay for 6 nights and were there for 7 days. We snorkeled, went on a boat ride, fed stingrays, fed sharks, fed pigs, kayaked, and had a wonderful time relaxing and enjoying each other's company. The weather was very nice and warm. We had a huge rain storm while we were there and that cooled everything off quite a bit so it wasn't as humid. The food was very expensive so we bought groceries and ate bean and cheese burritos in our condos while playing cards with the Carters. The back door of our condo looked out to a marina. The beach was only a 5 minute walk and the sand was so white and fine. We found lots of beautiful seashells, conch shells, and sea biscuits. I was able to try a conch fritter sandwich which was a bit chewy and had the texture of squid. It makes your job so much better when you get to work and travel with friends!!

Boys give their European country reports...

The boys each had to study a European country for their end of the year reports. Coop had Finland and Parker had Norway. They both enjoyed learning about their countries and did a wonderful job at presenting them. They had a European feast to finish out their study and got to taste lots of yummy food.

Cox's Honey Visits the SRMS!!

Cox's Honey visited the school and Parker volunteered to dress up in the bee keepers outfit. He enjoyed being the center of attention.

Our 7 Year Old!!

Mr. Coop turned the big 7 in April 20. He and Parker already had a shared birthday at iJump, but we wanted his day to still be special. Daddy brought him lunch at school and played football at recess with him and Parker. Nana picked him up, took him to get his cake at Baskin Robbins and bought him 2 Legos. He did have to spend the evening at Scotlyn's Honor Society meeting, but all in all...it was a good day.

SRMS Spirit Days!!

We had spirit week at school and we sure had fun dressing up!! Monday was mustache day, Tuesday was character day, Wednesday was wacky hair day, and Thursday was formal day. 

So Proud of Our Young Lady!!

Scotlyn has held a 4.0 grade point average since school started while doing sports (cross country & track) every day until 5:30 and dancing two days a week until 8:30. Words can't express how proud we are of her. She just enrolled to take high school courses so she can graduate with her two year college degree. I am excited to see what the future has in store for her!! She's such a great kid and we love her so much!!
