Capture the Moment- December Part 1

December started with Jackson swimming at Texas A &M for Gulf Swimming Championships.

Lincoln loved the pool and now wants to play football at A&M.

Lots of great swims for Jackson this weekend! 1st place in the 1,000 Free (that’s 40 laps!), 2 TAGS cuts in the 400 IM and 200 Breast, personal bests on each event he swam, and some tough moments along the way! Proud of my swimmer!

Thanksgiving Break- Camping Trip to Guadalupe River State Park.

We headed out Tuesday with some sprinkles along the way.

All good road trips start with a stop at Buc-ees!

We found FALL!!

The beauty down by the river was incredible! I stand in awe of God's goodness.

If creation sings your praises so will I.

If the rocks cry out in silence, so will I.

If the sum of all our praises still falls shy

Then we'll sing again a hundred billion times!

Brian started a new job at the beginning of the school year, and it was amazing to see God work out every detail. So, we are extra thankful he was able to get off and go camping with us this week. We will sing again a hundred billion times of God’s goodness. I stand in awe of His faithfulness.

Brian and Jackson put up a bunch of Christmas lights around our site for me.

Wednesday night our friends the Loucks arrived. We love our camping adventures with them.

The boys set up a 4 square area. 

The boys were brave enough to get in the river. 

The cold water didn't stop them from having fun. 

Love this group!

Camping is one of our favorite adventures to take together!

We celebrated Thanksgiving from the state park.Life is better by the campfire and with those you love!

Counting our blessings today and always! Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.” Psalms‬ ‭100‬:‭4‬ ‭

Lots of Rook was played and not many games were won by the girls!

Hiking and exploring

There may have been a lot of rain and MUD, but we saw beautiful fall colors and brought our own sunshine!

It was another great camping trip full of hiking, adventures, and fun memories with friends at Guadalupe River State Park!
