Looking Back!!

I was looking back at the pictures that were on the computer and feeling somewhat nostalgic. I just turned 40 a few days ago and wonder where the time goes. It is so great to see how things have changed, yet some things are the same. We are truly blessed to have a great family, great friends and everything we need. Thank you, Lord for always taking care of us and providing whatever we need.
Here a few pictures to share! Enjoy!!




Ally's first year of playing soccer. She was so nervous about her first practice that it took 30 minutes to get her out of the car. Here she is playing goalie....needless to say, she no longer plays that position, since she is scared of the ball hitting her:)



These are my brother's kids in 2005....Carlos, Chelsea and Derrick with Ally and AJ at Easter.


AJ's first year of soccer...they were only barely 5 years old... look how little they are. He still plays with his friends Kolin and Connor. They have come a long way! This year the team was undefeated! Way to go boys!!



It has been a yearly tradition to go trick-or-treating with our friends the Elwells. Here they kids are Halloween 2005....Those were the days when Disney characters were still cool!


Sarah, Ally, AJ and Sam. The Downey cousins--minus Brittney (where is she?) Anyway...that year it was still okay to sing in front of the video camera! How time does fly!!

They were all so cute and so small. Time really does fly by! I am glad we were able to meet and become friends before we moved out of English Ridge. I wish we lived closer even though we are like two minutes away but it's not the same as a few houses down. I look forward to our children growing up together(I hope!) We are blessed!
