Grad party, going away party, and baby chicks

Yesterday was a busy day...but we really enjoyed the time with our church family. We started the day off at Kyles house for his graduation open house. It's hard to see Kyle moving out of youth group and into college...we sure will miss him. We are super excited about what God is doing in his life, and know that God has great things in store for him!

We came home for a little bit so that Hannah could get a nap, then headed off to the Sissoms house for Jon's going away party. Jon leaves this week for deployment to Iraq and will be gone for a little over a year. We sure will miss him, but know that he is in the Lords hands. We are thankful for his willingness to serve our country!

The highlight of Hannah's day was getting to see baby chicks at the Sissoms. Jolene brought home 3 baby chicks that her kindergarten class had hatched. Hannah LOVED them and got very excited to see and touch them. I was actually really impressed with how gentle she was with them. It was neat to see her enjoy yet another new experience.

Hannah also had lots of fun playing with Mr. Sissom while we were at their house. She bounced a ball back and forth with him for a good half an hour. She loved riding on his shoulders(it kinda looks like he was having fun too! :))...he's a little bit taller than Mommy and Daddy so she gets way up there! :)
