Much To Celebrate

December 14th... a good day to celebrate.

Today Amy and I took Kirbi and McKenna to Steak 'n' Shake to have a small celebration of McKenna's 11th birthday. Grandma and Grandpa Parks joined us and we had a good time... and had some milkshakes... yum. McKenna got some cools presents. A star pillow from Grandma and a Ladybug necklace from Dad and Amy.

We celebrated something else good as well. Mom finished up her last day of radiation treatment today. What a trooper she was for 5+ weeks. She came through the treatments with flying colors. She must take a maintenance drug now for 5 years. Considering what the potential was for the cancer to be bad, we are truly blessed that it was caught early. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

Also, Ms. Kirbi got her Class Ring awhile back. She allowed me to take a picture of her flashing it to everyone.

McKenna's Ballet Presentation

Doodlebug was in a ballet presentation today. They performed "Belle and the Beast" from "Beauty and the Beast." McKenna was a dancing maid in the "Be Our Guest" act. She did a great job.

McKenna Cheers Upward

McKenna had her last game of the basketball season to cheer for on Saturday. There was an awards banquet Saturday evening. McKenna cheered in the UPWARD program that is hosted by Holly Creek Baptist Church over in Chatsworth, GA. UPWARD is a great Christian based program that ministers to kids through sports.



















McKenna got a leadership sticker for her megaphone after Saturday's game. Good job Doodlebug!!!

McKenna's Awards

I had the opportunity to attend McKenna's awards day at school. McKenna had a great year. She received awards for spelling and making the A/B Honor Roll. As well, she received a certificate for exceeding in area of language on the CRCT test.

Good Job Doodlebug!!
