I'm behind this winter with my blog posts. Between sickness, work and school, we've been busy! I hope everyone is doing well. Jackson continues to grow and learn. He loves the outdoors and animals. Here is Jackson helping feed our free-roaming pet goat Pris. Gotta love livin' on the farm! Jackson also loves his friends. We are so blessed to be surrounded by so many young Christian couples with children. We spend at least one to two evenings together throughout the week and weekend, catching up on the kids and just goofing off. Here are some of the kiddos: (Left to Right) Anna Roy, Jackson, Elli Grace Roy, Landen Talley and Jase Talley. They all decided to pile up in Jackson's bed. Anna and Jackson (hopefully we can use this at the rehearsal dinner one day haha!)The twins also had a big #1 birthday in January. They are both doing so well. Jackson loves to push their buttons!This is some of the most precious time for me. Jackson loves "the bubbles".
And for those of you that didn't know that I am now a brace face, here you go. Just 1 1/2 years to go!Jackson in his "jammies". Each night is so special for our whole family. We have a routine: bubbles, night time prayers, and then I rock my baby to sleep-I know, I can't get rid of that just yet. And finally, Mark and I had the privilege of going on a marriage retreat with our church last weekend. We missed Jackson, but we had a great time as a couple. By the way, Mark is doing wonderful in his student teaching. Please pray that God will guide him and provide him the opportunity to teach in a school where his free to minister to the kiddos and also a school that is close to home!
