So many things have happened since my last post!!
Let me catch up, please!
Our little family has grown older in two years.
Corbin is a Senior at Pitt State.
He just might graduate in May with a double major.
If he follows through with the plan, he will have a printing degree and a packaging degree.
He always said that he liked using the technology in Graphics Design.
He liked seeing the finished projects.
I sure did worry when he chose this plan of study.
The kid never drew pictures or doodled.
NEVER.
Graphics Design made me think of pictures, advertising, and all things creative!
He found a way to make it work for him.
In May he is scheduled to leave for a BIG city to do an internship for six months!
He is so excited that I can't hardly be sad at the idea of his being so far away.
Prayers for success as he tries to figure out his future.
Courtney is a Senior in high school.
She finished her very last volleyball season this fall.
They were District Champions and played one game in sectionals.
It was a good run, and I can't lie...I miss watching her play already.
...and Senior Night was tough.
She is on to other things though.
She is trying Archery for the first time ever!
She will have her first shoot on the 12th of January.
It will be a good day!
Last spring she was a member of the school's Trap Shooting Team!
She was the only girl who tried out for the team.
She worked hard and shot well during the season.
The team was able to advance to the State Shoot in June.
Courtney shot 78/100. Not bad for a first year shooter!
She also hit 33 clays in a row, earning a 25 shot patch.
She won 1st Place Female in the Conference and at State.
As she begins her last semester in High School, she is preparing for Nursing School at Pitt State.
She will earn her Associate Degree in General Studies from Crowder College the day after she graduates from high school.
She has worked really hard to do this.
She had no intentions of earning the degree when she started the classes.
She started slow, and she's taken on big class loads to complete it.
Go ahead...think about those accomplishments.
Corbin will graduate on May 11.
Courtney will graduate from high school on May 17.
She will turn around and graduate from Crowder on May 18.
The following weekend, we'll move Corbin to Minneapolis!
Please Pray for a Mama's heart and sanity.
*Proud Parent Moment*
Courtney was nominated for Queen candidate for the high school Knight and Queen.
Knight and Queen are nominated by teachers based on work ethic, attitude, integrity, etc.
It is sponsored by the yearbook committee, and the nominations and voting are done by teachers.
Here's our beautiful Queen and her King/friend, Nakoa.
Friends since elementary school!!
That's probably more than you could ever want to know about our kids.
They sure did grow up fast.
I love that they still enjoy being at home with family.
I really love that they spend the night at Grandma's house and help her with Christmas decorations.
I love that they tell each other secrets.
I think it's fabulous that they are best friends.
I pray that they are always close and always confide in one another.
This mama's heart is FULL.
Sometimes I get busy and forget, but Life IS Delicious!!
