URG...been so busy chasing these children around that I have not kept up with my blog! OK...so update on the children!<br /><br />Byne: He is in Huntsville! All moved in and really enjoying his new town. He will be playing baseball for University of Alabama Huntsville this Spring. He seems very happy there! I have not been to visit yet :( Lakyn and Dalton have been keeping me super busy here at home! Hope to go visit soon!<br /><br />Kyle: Still loving Alabama and most excited about Alabama football.<br /><br />Dalton: Is really enjoying his senior year and is preparing for next year! He has applied to Faulkner State in Bay Minette and is hoping for a tryout for their baseball team! He still loves his job at the YMCA and is looking forward to one day being a teacher! He still wants to be a Kindergarten teacher! That is too funny to me!! I guess teaching runs in our blood!! He gets his Senior pictures made today by our friend Billy! Hope to have those to share soon :)<br /><br />Lakyn: Loves high school at SEHS! She is cheering and having the time of her life. A little secret...Mom loves it as much as she does :) Check out our slide show!<br /><br />Mark: Still working as hard as ever...don't think that will ever change!<br /><br />Me: Loving life and trying to keep up with my family!! I have added some new pictures of mostly Lakyn cheering! That has consumed us lately! School is going great...seems like old hat these days! Everything just runs smoothly and all the teachers are fantastic! Glad to be a part of CES! Baby Emma has arrived and we are having the most fun playing with her...Lakyn adores her!!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-733957761364838672009-03-01T15:52:00.000-08:002009-03-01T15:57:26.857-08:00Snow Day 2009<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3hqd4csyYf1J3Wj8BKe49gQnWxk9doS-Jd-uYC_pou9QUWcvXXay4ODyKBQo_AQmwEtC7EpAJffOBteG9_QutmiPKa-rqOPiW6J3AxEHigvraesIxWNZYJ87ZoRxBestW4jtza91IsID7/s1600-h/Snow+Day+2009+050.jpg"><img style="float:right;

Dalton and Byne have started baseball season...so we are on the road all the time trying to watch them play ball! The Stars of Elmore County was held on Feb. 21st...I was nominated for Princiapl of the year. That was fun..didn't win, but a very deserving lady won. Mrs. Mary Lucy Crapps is the Principal of Holtville Elementary and has been there for a very long time. She is retiring this year so it was very fitting that she be honored :) I was thrilled that I was nominated by one of my teachers...I will always treasure the sweet letter that she wrote about me! Lakyn is getting ready for tryouts in April and still working on her back hand spring...hope she gets it before tryouts. I will be blogging a limited amount since I am traveling all over Alabama to watch my boys play ball. Hope you are all doing well...I am thinking of you often! Much love :)Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-24957505963756591952009-02-01T21:36:00.001-08:002009-02-01T21:40:24.139-08:00Baseball and the ball!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgExOKggrDYNeD5Zq4zrJ7hzJ7-Knu8jAFDGwjruyqA5B2w11Rnp5KQSrBbadHFZtpi5ci4VY2uLiNHj9ai0gnY2PCwMxi5Yzr5smo_MPN6ppIYiY83RzQlyTBO1VcxJIEOegbdgr5XP7SW/s1600-h/Ball+Masque+049.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 296px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgExOKggrDYNeD5Zq4zrJ7hzJ7-Knu8jAFDGwjruyqA5B2w11Rnp5KQSrBbadHFZtpi5ci4VY2uLiNHj9ai0gnY2PCwMxi5Yzr5smo_MPN6ppIYiY83RzQlyTBO1VcxJIEOegbdgr5XP7SW/s320/Ball+Masque+049.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298070202569819794" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8LKtUL3z50CUSpP6ZGkGPT2riUCBKAwh2PbWpmxiRCrfFde1ZOXGW4SyrVirlQUu79Lgv8cQUAcH8vvXa7dclcRo2EEWjULbvS4BlpVR6DOWjkgPqBNoxcYB5C33uGyq-40M_ahKZxrJH/s1600-h/Ball+Masque+057.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 310px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8LKtUL3z50CUSpP6ZGkGPT2riUCBKAwh2PbWpmxiRCrfFde1ZOXGW4SyrVirlQUu79Lgv8cQUAcH8vvXa7dclcRo2EEWjULbvS4BlpVR6DOWjkgPqBNoxcYB5C33uGyq-40M_ahKZxrJH/s320/Ball+Masque+057.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298069961410215282" /></a><br />We went to the Ball this weekend and had a great time!

We were able to go see Kyle and watch Byne play ball all at the same time!

I have been super busy getting ready for Christmas. I have cleaned every square inch of my house - literally with a toothbrush! lol It is nice to have it so clean - lets just hope it stays that way. <br /><br />We have so much to be excited about! <br />1. Emilie is having a baby girl! YEAH :) I love babies and am looking forward to being the best Aunt Susanne that our little Emma Catherine could ever hope for. I have big plans to spoil her rotten!<br />2. Baseball season will start very soon. Dalton's tryouts are January 10th and Byne's season will probably get started at the beginning of Feb. Both of them should get lots of playing time this year - so you know MOMMA will have to try and make EVERY game :) It is hard with them in two different directions, but we will do the best we can.<br />3. Lakyn is practicing her gymnastics getting ready for Cheerleading tryouts in March. She needs a back handspring and is already making great progress.<br />4. We are lookng forward to our annual New Years Eve bash - lots of good friends coming over to ring in the New Year.<br /><br />Christmas was great this year. Isn't it amazing that we spend a month preparing - buying, wrapping and it is all done in about an hour? We had to have our Christmas on Christmas Eve since Mark is on day shift. He has to be at work on Christmas Day at 5:15 AM :( Everybody was a little dissapointed in changing our "normal" traditions, but it is nice that our children will get to spend Christmas morning with their other parent this year. Dalton and Lakyn haven't been with their Dad on Christmas morning in a very long time. I am hoping this year that will be special for them. So......Mark will be at work, all the children will be with their "other" parent. Guess where Susanne will be......snoozing in my bed. I may get up and put my bathrobe on and watch a movie in my quiet house! Jan is making Christmas lunch for her family - so maybe I will stroll over there in my pajamas and have some lunch.:) Mark will get home from work around 2 and the boys will get home around then, so we will take Byne and Kyle to a movie Christmas afternoon. We always go on Christmas day and take turns picking the movie. Bad news....this year it is Mark's turn. That usually means a war movie! :( All in all it was a special Christmas spending time with family and friends. I hope you all are having a very Merry Christmas!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-48880267006716930012008-11-23T21:53:00.000-08:002008-11-23T21:58:50.231-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAsAwimdU1xg0UPnKSbnXtYsL8d13zuY2nFHS2dxbDI5luRt2WrkWtFwNOWwbAl8hKIfTNs-81mzQogb_Yf4gZ1yc-a-Ekcbo4OyZPwPlyPwoPI8YvOhpSqD97DqU7G7CQGwsjRXADo4HK/s1600-h/Matt's+Wedding+017.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 195px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAsAwimdU1xg0UPnKSbnXtYsL8d13zuY2nFHS2dxbDI5luRt2WrkWtFwNOWwbAl8hKIfTNs-81mzQogb_Yf4gZ1yc-a-Ekcbo4OyZPwPlyPwoPI8YvOhpSqD97DqU7G7CQGwsjRXADo4HK/s320/Matt's+Wedding+017.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272098656028240210" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfHAJxLx5Gfh49mxkso9GS8L7zYCXUVATFQsrAHUp2WU_cdJM80DtLfL2kLgyOtn-VKwQGh6MFW8FOSHrqSbH2dltD9vTM7n2CCUJrPqEaxI5cm6EN1_OjWkOHbpLFJrmCm9Cxj6oefI9R/s1600-h/Family+Picture+005.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 286px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfHAJxLx5Gfh49mxkso9GS8L7zYCXUVATFQsrAHUp2WU_cdJM80DtLfL2kLgyOtn-VKwQGh6MFW8FOSHrqSbH2dltD9vTM7n2CCUJrPqEaxI5cm6EN1_OjWkOHbpLFJrmCm9Cxj6oefI9R/s320/Family+Picture+005.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272098652445048386" /></a><br />We had Thanksgiving at Maw Maws house today. Time for the annual family photo for the Christmas card. Good news.....it only took a few minutes. The boys behaved this year and Aunt Kay only had to take two or three and we were done!! They usually act really silly and it takes us forever to get one where we all look normal. We are headed to the beach for my side of the families Thanksgiving on Wednesday! I am looking forward to the trip! Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for :)Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-35613054535564453842008-11-23T21:38:00.001-08:002008-11-23T21:52:50.302-08:00I believe everything happens for a reasonDalton's friend married this weekend. He was the best man and it was a very sweet service. The couple is very young and has a baby on the way. It reminded me so much of how our family started. When I saw that bride round the corner looking so young and full of hope, it reminded me so much of how I probably looked at seventeen getting married. I was so young and so in love....nothing else mattered. When we are young we don't think about anything but the moment. Then as we "grow up" we realize how we change and begin to ask what have I missed. I prayed for her right that minute as I cried my eyes out. I cried because I can so identify with her feelings that day.....a little sad, very happy, very naive, looking forward but not having a clue what is about to hit her. Please pray for her!! Please pray for him!! I truly believe that everything happens for a reason.....God brought us our sweet Dalton. He was truly a gift from God that came very early in my life. I just realize now how fast we had to grow up and that I was growing up with him! I know that God has a plan for this young couple too!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-5865698600024413092008-11-09T17:51:00.000-08:002008-11-09T18:05:45.037-08:00Tennis at the Beach ~ does it get any better?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuqC7Jzr_YWOjmkjWv8x9nk6MYTF3u57tu8CISDwHr0wx1FHJnQj90PwST6VB3e49_1QoX28UgRhOqChq-3ARrLw6imIhVj76GCj5E-t3EFoKOqXRwE8f3uykxtovhG8iLYY3Z53yLrOnN/s1600-h/Tennis+Tournament+092.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 286px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuqC7Jzr_YWOjmkjWv8x9nk6MYTF3u57tu8CISDwHr0wx1FHJnQj90PwST6VB3e49_1QoX28UgRhOqChq-3ARrLw6imIhVj76GCj5E-t3EFoKOqXRwE8f3uykxtovhG8iLYY3Z53yLrOnN/s320/Tennis+Tournament+092.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266842040071192450" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUfouVLrBuBGkJCVOz6zY7yTVdY-jMlugFqA1aVLw1_L-rjFcVgx6mBXbuxlw8bDnw0Y_eRSODMlYis9wFtW24b4-PCdU00xNurgrSjGQRdAsBWIIaEgzccJnNMny4NokCfb3NkUZ2njtW/s1600-h/Tennis+Tournament+011.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 235px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUfouVLrBuBGkJCVOz6zY7yTVdY-jMlugFqA1aVLw1_L-rjFcVgx6mBXbuxlw8bDnw0Y_eRSODMlYis9wFtW24b4-PCdU00xNurgrSjGQRdAsBWIIaEgzccJnNMny4NokCfb3NkUZ2njtW/s320/Tennis+Tournament+011.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266842036130177138" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Fcg_tFIdNUJqnIPd4cSI4UX0Jbc5a_MR_87_f9YuiWfFcONjQohZ-HJT_3C7_VchfVS4UhMmGWviTWEasfBd1jHkGDm4Ld-wcr8waRCDxIHUX5FQaZqCcG4VhhAlq3B9Sfx8nB9Vdxy7/s1600-h/Tennis+Tournament+006.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Fcg_tFIdNUJqnIPd4cSI4UX0Jbc5a_MR_87_f9YuiWfFcONjQohZ-HJT_3C7_VchfVS4UhMmGWviTWEasfBd1jHkGDm4Ld-wcr8waRCDxIHUX5FQaZqCcG4VhhAlq3B9Sfx8nB9Vdxy7/s320/Tennis+Tournament+006.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266842007538257842" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4J7fWHFX45uLKDQ1poIe3tX0ydB5UMOpgUaqRXPTTTnslgxGlOoNmupHqaBiR7pzMSgGEcqv8J1DLsm3cqx67sjWNJfaGRxeSdqjo8ej7SKFuD-tKNEbNeyh-prXqsyiYkkwql8oBzK6_/s1600-h/Tennis+Tournament+002.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4J7fWHFX45uLKDQ1poIe3tX0ydB5UMOpgUaqRXPTTTnslgxGlOoNmupHqaBiR7pzMSgGEcqv8J1DLsm3cqx67sjWNJfaGRxeSdqjo8ej7SKFuD-tKNEbNeyh-prXqsyiYkkwql8oBzK6_/s320/Tennis+Tournament+002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266841999036202898" /></a><br /><br />Our tennis team, Sweet Heat, made it to the State Tournament in Orange Beach. We were all so excited, but I was super nervous! I just started playing tennis about 6 or 7 months ago, and I only play once or twice a week. I wanted to do well at the tournament, but I have never had a lesson and still have so much to learn. I am grateful that I play on a team that is more concerned about having fun than obsessed with winning. My partner, Flavia, is also SUPER patient with me :)! We had the greatest time! All of the teams that we played were really nice, and our group of girls are GREAT! Emilie, Byne, Lakyn, and Cayla came down to support me ~ which was really cool! I learned so much this weekend and had a fantastic time ~ can't wait until the next time we make it to state (there will be a next time)! I just wish I could walk - every bone in my body aches! You know my body is not used to this much physical activity lol. Check out the pictures on our flickr site ~ Byne got really picture happy at the last match :)Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-18355945244091618042008-11-01T11:12:00.001-07:002008-11-01T11:21:08.185-07:00Halloween 2008<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6jys7ZmMFFC0Gx76CpQjFS9Qa3Zytz68XMoiXULgFJ2iR50QkcvOzUTTWaQJtA7oenge-UbmxDLBBa-iJ9O39l1iFgzzrAWh4biESqGNA0a65lUE1pQ1sCmvYYJWMsDjmyw9kujoeOsqu/s1600-h/Halloween+2008+089.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6jys7ZmMFFC0Gx76CpQjFS9Qa3Zytz68XMoiXULgFJ2iR50QkcvOzUTTWaQJtA7oenge-UbmxDLBBa-iJ9O39l1iFgzzrAWh4biESqGNA0a65lUE1pQ1sCmvYYJWMsDjmyw9kujoeOsqu/s320/Halloween+2008+089.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263755783066538290" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo_0ap_sEPTlvNNIhXtq1hK05DtHykS64G5t1f91EkJITebZ1ELqVWyq_zpki6ajqmD3hFcNVP1HGZOjzA0D6beSWAAVg90QxODoOlh9jLukGt1DSEUilRHbJZSdDXekwlUduDdIKmFXG1/s1600-h/Halloween+2008+088.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo_0ap_sEPTlvNNIhXtq1hK05DtHykS64G5t1f91EkJITebZ1ELqVWyq_zpki6ajqmD3hFcNVP1HGZOjzA0D6beSWAAVg90QxODoOlh9jLukGt1DSEUilRHbJZSdDXekwlUduDdIKmFXG1/s320/Halloween+2008+088.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263755775759032978" /></a><br />We always have the most fun at Halloween! Lakyn and Byne seem to enjoy it the most and the costume parade at school is so much fun! All of the teachers dress up and some of them are so creative. The purple pod teachers dressed like the administration this year. They each made a mask of our faces. It was so funny! I thought Mrs. Judy was dressed as Obama when I first saw her and then discovered it was Mr. Jackson. <br /><br />We had a little Halloween gathering last night and the kds had a great time. We were glad to get to see Mrs. Beth and John David. All of the children were here, which doesn't happen that often with two of them away at college. We were glad to see Kyle. It was a great night! We have so much to be thankful for!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-88830336416353775232008-10-19T15:48:00.000-07:002008-10-19T15:51:07.514-07:00CES Fall Ball<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWwALRLZzuSrRxvE6eYXFNJF5qRBez0Xh1lKDsuPaAKryL3-PoB7ZFB8_M5ZWAKxVB2ANiekul4iDsNwlrYVsnSv4TABfOC3rRyxixNAoCkrN5hLDgOO4cV4VOCdxC_loXIr4ZiSR8LJRz/s1600-h/Fall+Ball+037.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWwALRLZzuSrRxvE6eYXFNJF5qRBez0Xh1lKDsuPaAKryL3-PoB7ZFB8_M5ZWAKxVB2ANiekul4iDsNwlrYVsnSv4TABfOC3rRyxixNAoCkrN5hLDgOO4cV4VOCdxC_loXIr4ZiSR8LJRz/s320/Fall+Ball+037.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259001125081218354" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiburlW6wD4CFKfWUlCw8VSURpm8-gRZqTczUbWGX2ZU13gqH30im-_fmQnX1J517Cc3r9wCKFJvhIqVXLkexNeUBQgqb_LtsqZ9R_ouNot0C__sde8NegTsfvKoXMFcxYlW4k5RJh9oFhX/s1600-h/Fall+Ball+028.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiburlW6wD4CFKfWUlCw8VSURpm8-gRZqTczUbWGX2ZU13gqH30im-_fmQnX1J517Cc3r9wCKFJvhIqVXLkexNeUBQgqb_LtsqZ9R_ouNot0C__sde8NegTsfvKoXMFcxYlW4k5RJh9oFhX/s320/Fall+Ball+028.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259001126038429890" /></a><br /><br />The CES Fall Ball was last night.

Lakyn turned 14 and Byne turned 21! We had a party for Lakyn on Friday night. She had several little girls come to a spend the night party at the lake. We played hide and go seek, decorated our own cakes, limboed, and busted a pinata. They had the greatest time! The decorating of the cakes was a big hit! I was impressed with some of their creativity! Byne's party was scheduled for Saturday night. He had a pinata too - transformers lol! It was a great time with family and friends. My favorite part was when Lakyn had to blow out the candles on all the individual cakes - I took a video. Check it out on our link to the family photos. It is too cute! I am so blessed with these sweet children!

Dalton participated in the CACC showcase this morning and Byne had a game today. It was lots of fun watching them play! They both had a great day of baseball. With two of them playing we are super busy, but loving every minute of it. Cayla and I are staying at the lake while we travel back and forth to games. I am having a great time getting to spend time with her.Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-17720744926916975002008-09-27T17:08:00.000-07:002008-09-27T17:15:10.170-07:00We found the fountain of youth! :)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ06W_-w2J7vJzbLVAYLCj8FpSlgtxAsqOrkDbalLnfIRdfLF6sETLIPsdOx9If-dMiKsPkqQjZ7Tkf5Z-E4yyIGxSdvW7botI3PV2DeuhHJIiFF3r5Zk85leLFHCAxstBSDudt1RyPeXY/s1600-h/San+Destin+004.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ06W_-w2J7vJzbLVAYLCj8FpSlgtxAsqOrkDbalLnfIRdfLF6sETLIPsdOx9If-dMiKsPkqQjZ7Tkf5Z-E4yyIGxSdvW7botI3PV2DeuhHJIiFF3r5Zk85leLFHCAxstBSDudt1RyPeXY/s320/San+Destin+004.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5250858319386307714" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgThnRvophZD0WxligRTSFY6_lmlFln_XsZPkqJBORdayMSqzYtnrBqo9MlBSDV0RaTX8MH6GspYgjPox9C7UYFJsDcyxCm8_tIWEeyLGQXJtgNzJVTBMzAuH1PWqGuDQ260dYMzuSIvwXX/s1600-h/San+Destin+005.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgThnRvophZD0WxligRTSFY6_lmlFln_XsZPkqJBORdayMSqzYtnrBqo9MlBSDV0RaTX8MH6GspYgjPox9C7UYFJsDcyxCm8_tIWEeyLGQXJtgNzJVTBMzAuH1PWqGuDQ260dYMzuSIvwXX/s320/San+Destin+005.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5250858325918802146" /></a><br /><br />Mark and I went to San Destin for a conference with my work this week. We had a fabulous time. It was my first time visiting Baytown Wharf and I was very impressed! We went on a Dinner Cruise on Thursday evening and had a great time with Andre', Monica, Steve, and Lori. We also went to watch an old friend of mine play the guitar at the Funky Blues Shack in Baytown Wharf. It was a great trip. We found the Fountain of Youth at Baytown Wharf - we thought that was funny!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-74622228206124501662008-09-06T21:23:00.000-07:002008-09-06T21:29:39.060-07:00Byne plays!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzlTF09HGSZDGGQPt467Fq8r6LuiNBOCSZ65gXAuuIHWlgByBwIQlHB3jpZQcrHPTq9fht1JLe0ECuxGKtgVifszRaGa99X-k_IKBB16Xz_LGkB3FLQx5DKKP9GxfIcJqszV_ooIJhiBRx/s1600-h/Byne+and+Lakyn+003.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzlTF09HGSZDGGQPt467Fq8r6LuiNBOCSZ65gXAuuIHWlgByBwIQlHB3jpZQcrHPTq9fht1JLe0ECuxGKtgVifszRaGa99X-k_IKBB16Xz_LGkB3FLQx5DKKP9GxfIcJqszV_ooIJhiBRx/s320/Byne+and+Lakyn+003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243131293175618898" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_IP_1CKpCwhWxQYKziXt8W15buOg-b1DH0Oc8t7IZS8WL2W90Kyosp2AbRakFjWm593gzIUAOYVGTFwVCZVy0FovWgeXKCod9LJLEoYS5S9RUvElx2F6Q2yWqo60vJ8oMk61SL2-DR7Rz/s1600-h/Byne+and+Lakyn+030.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_IP_1CKpCwhWxQYKziXt8W15buOg-b1DH0Oc8t7IZS8WL2W90Kyosp2AbRakFjWm593gzIUAOYVGTFwVCZVy0FovWgeXKCod9LJLEoYS5S9RUvElx2F6Q2yWqo60vJ8oMk61SL2-DR7Rz/s320/Byne+and+Lakyn+030.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243131296596917218" /></a><br />I had to add the picture of Byne and Lakyn in this blog. Byne came to watch Lakyn cheer last week and she was so excited. She loves that Byne. I thought this was the sweetest picture!:) We went to watch Byne play at CACC today. It was the first home game for the Fall season. He played in the outfield and pitched. It was such a welcomed change to actually see him playing! He did GREAT! We are proud of him and proud for him. He seems to be loving CACC! It does my heart good to see him happy!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-53326724256005084552008-09-01T16:47:00.000-07:002008-09-01T17:03:42.339-07:00I have been tagged.......Nancy tagged me! :)<br /><br />Six things about me that you may or may not know ~<br /><br />1. I am super messy! My car is messy, and my house is messy and it really does not bother me all that much. Luckily, I married someone who it also does not bother. I do have my moments where I insist on scrubbing every square inch of the house, but I live the majority of my life with clothes hanging off the chairs in my bedroom and all in the floor!<br /><br />2. I just got bumped up in the rankings on my tennis team. I am now ranked a 3.0 ~ and my tennis team is headed to state in Orange Beach Nov. 6-9! I have always loved to watch sports, but have never really liked to play! This love of tennis is new and I am enjoying every minute of it!<br /><br />3. I HATE public speaking. I shake and break out in hives before I have to speak at PTO or any other school event. Mr. Jackson tells me that you can not tell, that I look cool as a cucumber ~ but I am actually dieing inside when I have to speak.<br /><br />4. I have a severe addiction to Diet Coke. My family expresses concern about how many I drink a day. I am embarrassed to admit, but I have one in my hand from sunup to sundown. Although I love diet coke, I do not believe in dieting. I eat what I want when I want. I have NEVER been on a diet ~ when I want to lose weight I just eat less and exercise more.<br /><br />5. I would rather have a few close friends than to have a whole bunch of friends.<br /><br />6. My back porch is my most favorite place in the world! My dream is to one day have a porch on the beach :)!<br /><br /><br />I tag:<br />Suzanne R.<br />Blair<br />Shay<br />Allison<br />StaceySusanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-83420516800109833802008-09-01T14:11:00.000-07:002008-09-01T14:22:47.404-07:00I love football season!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqOI27XEJKPEMULAF9p_HKGPgtl9asO24-8BJwHzEAFkxd3nUEEOT5pmp2hmBaCW0ZUIUCe3xo1OlF8vZM_sEr0Q3LZFgroguFW9D1YyWG5QFXpDP3230c48BUMVz9MKzcJnoshs91LMn/s1600-h/Bama+Game+001.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqOI27XEJKPEMULAF9p_HKGPgtl9asO24-8BJwHzEAFkxd3nUEEOT5pmp2hmBaCW0ZUIUCe3xo1OlF8vZM_sEr0Q3LZFgroguFW9D1YyWG5QFXpDP3230c48BUMVz9MKzcJnoshs91LMn/s320/Bama+Game+001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241165046654984642" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6az8HFLc5G88y-vIRYfO7x0RGwxNUQpnbSF2gsl6_pF5Y24MQ82CKpFOauYcbxczF3xbtvaiKhIcCOQVvs5ocu57N6T7bMtYoIphEl-I1i8ACw3j9Ix6qePqsNerp9Tyet7F97AB1jbIT/s1600-h/Bama+Game+002.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6az8HFLc5G88y-vIRYfO7x0RGwxNUQpnbSF2gsl6_pF5Y24MQ82CKpFOauYcbxczF3xbtvaiKhIcCOQVvs5ocu57N6T7bMtYoIphEl-I1i8ACw3j9Ix6qePqsNerp9Tyet7F97AB1jbIT/s320/Bama+Game+002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241165053682170018" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii3lgzexgoHs1rIig_Yj7GFtDYxGqVe5OsVX19s5iRefeuJCWwrJezQ4-RhbULxixgWFfEj9r_8NLv_9Awuq6OEG1ZVBIRtEw2UXruGkTU3z9OjRIw6UPEU0dEe87OZ-Nkucw332Y7P9D_/s1600-h/Bama+Game+003.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii3lgzexgoHs1rIig_Yj7GFtDYxGqVe5OsVX19s5iRefeuJCWwrJezQ4-RhbULxixgWFfEj9r_8NLv_9Awuq6OEG1ZVBIRtEw2UXruGkTU3z9OjRIw6UPEU0dEe87OZ-Nkucw332Y7P9D_/s320/Bama+Game+003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241165058199174162" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4HNGCtfUd4pOnzz8c3HopUWZzIHEY8W6Cq_x7iPtSrFQX3ivTWOUiqYoUzRoeb7B8XPy_o_iBWlP5_HkonP_Zyx-efxkBMb7PTYz5v9a4Rf2ckSoiR92V7GpK2e0Pg-8e9QaQn_oIqRBg/s1600-h/Lakyn's+Game+028.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4HNGCtfUd4pOnzz8c3HopUWZzIHEY8W6Cq_x7iPtSrFQX3ivTWOUiqYoUzRoeb7B8XPy_o_iBWlP5_HkonP_Zyx-efxkBMb7PTYz5v9a4Rf2ckSoiR92V7GpK2e0Pg-8e9QaQn_oIqRBg/s320/Lakyn's+Game+028.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241165060002612546" /></a><br />I have never been a huge football fan, always a baseball kinda girl....but I do love football season. Lakyn has so much fun cheering for her school, that her enthusiasm is contagious! There is something about the air (less humidity- maybe?) during the Fall that makes it more enjoyable to be outside watching a game. Lakyn's first game was last week- they went into 6 overtimes. It was a really exciting game. She has another this Tuesday in Alex City, so her big brother Byne will get to come watch her. She is pumped about that :) Alabama football proved to be pretty exciting this weekend too. We watched the game at Jan's and had a great time. Byne and Kyle were home from college and were able to watch the game with us. It was a great Labor Day weekend with the family!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-81951323519189177222008-08-19T19:44:00.000-07:002008-08-19T19:48:27.899-07:00Luke<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwEMRoO8fzS1EyF4YTn5OyFPaNf2vFTbzxLIxGT1ffXS9May3jKXs7WzXUzr_cMIaP0NhXb85HVrUXTMdojP-nHuWTr-aob7hbjqYTG978SfVVS99RPA1tclLT1dIZyTAUpvRJTfgXNFlA/s1600-h/Baby+Luke+003.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwEMRoO8fzS1EyF4YTn5OyFPaNf2vFTbzxLIxGT1ffXS9May3jKXs7WzXUzr_cMIaP0NhXb85HVrUXTMdojP-nHuWTr-aob7hbjqYTG978SfVVS99RPA1tclLT1dIZyTAUpvRJTfgXNFlA/s320/Baby+Luke+003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236425885316636434" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIkr_4f4rnw1AZBEKw0kcAtxjIQOoOgVnFwV98eUv5G4AsXiLnrCRlWGgHXfCf4ZDGexwUC9tLgjDo-nPof9pZ1sZbGZtdOvwjfsYqgm5qVeeL7rUQOfJNlrx4lHHAQd_sdkw8ituv9QuK/s1600-h/Baby+Luke+007.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIkr_4f4rnw1AZBEKw0kcAtxjIQOoOgVnFwV98eUv5G4AsXiLnrCRlWGgHXfCf4ZDGexwUC9tLgjDo-nPof9pZ1sZbGZtdOvwjfsYqgm5qVeeL7rUQOfJNlrx4lHHAQd_sdkw8ituv9QuK/s320/Baby+Luke+007.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236425890798901394" /></a><br />My friend, Michele, had her baby this week. Luke weighed nine pounds and 7 ounces and was born two weeks early. It is a good thing that he decided to enter this world a little early, for Michele's sake. He is the cutest baby and so sweet! I am so proud for Michele and Les! :)Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-1585833952292645152008-08-17T21:08:00.000-07:002008-08-17T21:11:40.763-07:00Sims' Retirement Party<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmrQY8cfBRxR1q_T9-qz5pw1W79MOh-Fm7KSwWluqIrcgMnx1Bz1k6RsKyvUQ0hsiz3BqqrwgKyYHrjfjx_VmLyzjnuCOtO4UE1-G2ZPZZw9lRficmNrY8Ur5ZIoCixxjtJtCJO7unb_Bm/s1600-h/Sims+Party+029.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmrQY8cfBRxR1q_T9-qz5pw1W79MOh-Fm7KSwWluqIrcgMnx1Bz1k6RsKyvUQ0hsiz3BqqrwgKyYHrjfjx_VmLyzjnuCOtO4UE1-G2ZPZZw9lRficmNrY8Ur5ZIoCixxjtJtCJO7unb_Bm/s320/Sims+Party+029.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235705103597363842" /></a><br />Emilie's parents both retired this year and they had a retirement party.

It is really cool! He seemed so excited about this school year and that really puts my mind at ease. We tore down the girly wall paper and put up a Spiderman wallpaper border! Yes, he is twenty - going to be 21 in Oct. and still loves Spiderman. That is what makes him so GREAT! :) He still has roses painted around the windows, but we will fix that next visit! He seems settled and happy - what more can a parent ask for!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-24707438445483730432008-08-10T19:18:00.000-07:002008-08-10T19:22:55.351-07:00Back to School Party<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPkZd-iSXPQqP6LUjDBekYRoyT10SpvciCqsqBOPH5vnF7f8hT1zB98EsCMDMbgpp9LQxXtI5dR3SNsumqdurm9jI6rYAYujyQuNNKeUJUrWXYnOYahi68Iol-OzFf2v_tJlWfTUGNzbia/s1600-h/Back+to+School+Party+114.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPkZd-iSXPQqP6LUjDBekYRoyT10SpvciCqsqBOPH5vnF7f8hT1zB98EsCMDMbgpp9LQxXtI5dR3SNsumqdurm9jI6rYAYujyQuNNKeUJUrWXYnOYahi68Iol-OzFf2v_tJlWfTUGNzbia/s320/Back+to+School+Party+114.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233079395688457010" /></a><br />We had a fantastic time at the lake this weekend! We did buy matching T-shirts (like we are in high school LOL)! Our back to school party wore us out, but I am so gald that we took full advantage of our LAST weekend of summer!

When they began to discuss where to have the end of the year party for the counselors, he volunteered to have it at our lake cabin. I really enjoyed getting to know all of the coworkers he has talked about all summer! They had a little awards ceremony and passed out personalized certificates to acknowledge the counselors hard work. Dalton was given the "Most ready to issue a beat down award". I am hoping that it means he has good discipline and NOT that he actually beat down the children! LOL These counselors played hard all day at the lake - I was worn out after just watching them. I am very proud of my Dalton for taking the initiative to get a job this summer and working so hard to make camp fun for his campers! Today was a GREAT day playing with a GREAT group of people!Susanne Goodinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08791945469686242011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149592975600712609.post-73326083420333477902008-08-03T19:06:00.001-07:002008-12-12T00:41:30.432-08:00Amy's Wedding<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4vRaytH1YD87iSZv_-gCdyCUeia1o29Kil0shhtC1bswG99EbooweWxt35FLpv5iSisP0L6TyH0J4hAWaaEinUBkE4k5E7p4JKUDDLS_q6GzaNluIVm0TinyvvKxTgEjtjxWjqEr2kemI/s1600-h/Amy's+Wedding+016.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4vRaytH1YD87iSZv_-gCdyCUeia1o29Kil0shhtC1bswG99EbooweWxt35FLpv5iSisP0L6TyH0J4hAWaaEinUBkE4k5E7p4JKUDDLS_q6GzaNluIVm0TinyvvKxTgEjtjxWjqEr2kemI/s320/Amy's+Wedding+016.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5230479397451879810" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijIdGTuOS_r9cTEEUECvT3-iKQkTWq4ppOd_Lfbj2cIwnto37fuT0M8wpKgwxRcbxTdfjEDC6ak3X6nR0zAo289VwIIJPXkkhp9bMU9GCow0aLqTKRN2Sosop28lr1TQolIOfnFu1OMEBy/s1600-h/Amy's+Wedding+024.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijIdGTuOS_r9cTEEUECvT3-iKQkTWq4ppOd_Lfbj2cIwnto37fuT0M8wpKgwxRcbxTdfjEDC6ak3X6nR0zAo289VwIIJPXkkhp9bMU9GCow0aLqTKRN2Sosop28lr1TQolIOfnFu1OMEBy/s320/Amy's+Wedding+024.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5230479405523587202" /></a><br />My family is very small.
