Week in review!

This week was a lot of fun! Micah turned 9 on Thursday! We can't believe he's 9 already! He had a birthday party with his buddies on Saturday and they had a blast! Also on Saturday Porter had his first Pinewood Derby!! Jace and Porter spent a long while getting "The Bullet" ready for the big race! His car raced many times and did very well. Micah loved the chance to get some ideas for his derby coming up at the end of the month.

Hope you all having fun in life with WHATEVER comes your way!!
