My Office Burned to the Ground!

Happened overnight Monday January 12th.  Everything counseling and teaching related I owned was lost in the fire.  Pray.  There were six of us faculty members that lost it all.  Some had been teaching there for 20 years.  

Gate Cottage Burned to the ground!

Pray for Toccoa Falls College and the School of Counseling faculty and students.  We lost everything.  See link below for more details.  Wow.

Alex Scared of Batman

Alex would not go on this slide at John & Tonya's because he was scared of the huge Batman.  He hid his eyes the whole time - this was hilarious.

So cute - Alex telling about his Squirrel Encounter

Corey was outside trying to patch some holes from squirrels when one was scared out of it's hole and ran down the front of the house.

Alex was standing at the front door with the screen door open. The Squirrel headed straight for him. Daddy yelled to Alex to close the door but it was too late - the squirrel jumped over Alex's head and into the house.

That was fun - trying to get it out. A halfhour later it was finally flushed out the side door and it scurried off to the shed.

Boy is that squirrel going to have a tale to tell his or her friends. :)

Alex is so adorable.

He also knows his letters and can count to 10... we are NOT proud of him or anything - yeah right!!!!!!!!
