It's Grilling Time!

Karl wanted to grill his Father's Day dinner, so I had to take a cute picture of him & Sarah going out to the grill and cook!

This & That

The past few weeks have been crazy with Sarah finishing up school, the summer starting, and us finding a new home! We will be closing on our new home July 30! We can't wait. It's going to be a busy summer.

For Father's Day we decided to spend it with Jenny's family. We celebrated Father's Day, Yia Yia's birthday, and Jenny's birthday. We went to the club for lunch and swimming. We had a blast. We are so blessed to be close to family and to enjoy times together!

I hope everyone is having a great summer, we look forward to seeing you all this summer. If you are ever near Jacksonville, stop by and see us! We have plenty of room!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to my wonderful husband!

Karl, you are an amazing father to Sarah! Thank you for all that you do, and continue to do. I love you so very much!

Sarah's 1st Dentist Appointment

Well Sarah had her first dentist appointment this past week. We prepared all week for the appointment. We read our Dora visits the dentist book, and talked about it a lot!!! Sarah did great at the appointment. She saw Dr. Setzer, this was Jenny's dentist when she was a little girl! Sarah was so excited to watch television in the waiting room, look at all the pretty fish in the fish tank, watch movies on the ceiling, and wear special earphones. She was a complete angel. Her teeth look great, and had no cavities! Yeah for Sarah!

I only took one picture while at the doctor's office. I did not want to be that crazy woman, taking pictures! As we were leaving, there was another Mom taking pictures of her little girl. I guess I'm not that crazy after all! Besides, you will only be able to experience so many "1sts".

Just a side note- wanted to ask everyone to pray for my mom. She got results this past week from another scan and it does not look good. The cancer has grown, and also is started to spread to more places in the liver and spine. We know God is in control, and he is the healer. Pray for my family as we journey through this time in our life. I am so blessed that we are in Jacksonville now to be able to help with whatever needs to be done. We will update when we know more. She is starting aggressive chemo treatments next week.

Love to you all!

Easter Egg Galore

This past weekend Jenny's work had a big Spring Festival. There was a egg hunt with over 10,000 eggs, easter bunny, and great food. Yia Yia & Papa joined in the fun and met us for lunch.

We had a great time. Below are a few pictures of Sarah having a great time!

Basket full of eggs!

We are alive and well!

Hey everyone! It's been a long time! We are very busy, but doing great!

We are loving being here in Jacksonville. Karl is doing some really neat projects and enjoying his job as Website Developer for Advantage Designs Group. He has done some really neat projects for Auburn University Alumni association, Ashley furniture, and others! I am so proud of him!

I am enjoying my job. I am working at Westminster Woods on Julington Creek as their Recreational Therapist. I love all of the people I work with & it's super close to home!

Sarah is doing great. She is enjoying her school and is the social butterfly. She turned "4" this past January. My has time gone by fast! She is our joy!

We are getting settled in Jacksonville and it's starting to feel like home.

Below are some picks from our last trip to Gainesville.

I promise it won't be this long again before my next post. Hope all is well- come and see us in Jacksonville! We have plenty of room and would love to see everyone!

Below are a few pictures of us at the Gator Baseball game against Mississippi State.
Sarah & Daddy! They are so close! I am so thankful for that!

Thanksgiving 2009

The Ross House hosted Thanksgiving this year! We were surrounded by lots of family but still some were missing...we missed Kenneth & Hannah, & the kids, Rebekah & Nathan, and Grammy & Pop. I loved having a house full....and shared the cooking responsibility. Karl got up at 2 am and starting smoking the turkey, it was well worth the time & effort. It was so nice to spend it with both sides of the family. We had a great day...and ended with making turkey cookies with Babi & Aunt Katie.

Karl's parents stayed the weekend, so we could spend some more time together. Jenny & Babi went to Christmas Made in the South, while Karl, Dad, & Sarah spent time together. Before we knew it it was time for them to go home. We enjoyed them coming. The rest of the weekend was filled with getting Christmas pictures taken & Christmas shopping.

I am so thankful for my wonderful family....I love you!
