Back To School


How can it bee that Brian is starting 6th grade and is almost 12 years old!
Wasn't it just yesterday that he was in preschool with "Teacher Tracy"?

Our Little Bona has grown up!
He has turned into such  fine young man, and we are so proud of him and all his accomplishments.
He has been a true joy and blessing to our family and such an example
to each one of us.

Mrs. Dennis is his teacher this year.
She is different from Ms Rawlins from last year...however
we think that it will be a great year and that Brian will have the opportunity
to learn and grow.
He is excited about some of his classes that he will have
and the change to work for his Quest for Excellence Award.
It is going to be a great year.

Football is in full swing now.
Games should start next week. We still don't have the schedule, but it is coming.
They starting wearing full pads last week....
It has been a new experience for Brian.
You love to watch football, but never know how much it hurts until you're the one getting smashed.


He's even taken a few for the team and it isn't even game day yet...
The pictures don't do the injuries justice, but you have an idea.
Last night we had to do 30 minutes of ice, then put some icy hot  before going to bed.

He was feeling better this morning, but we are going to get some
cover things for his arms...like pad things I guess
to help to protect him some.
Poor kid...but he is doing great and we are proud of him for sticking with it!

Brian...we love you! We hope that this year is gonna be the best yet!!!

Even Robert gave him some advice...

I hope he heals fast and can enjoy his 6th grade year!
