Merry Christmas Friends & Family!
Has it really been 3 years since I last wrote a post here? It seems so. Time flies. So much has happened in the past 3 years.
The good part about life happening is that the good memories can fill all the right buckets. Our son, Clay, has graduated from high school and is currently active in the NMSU ROTC program with intentions of going active upon graduation. He has settled into becoming a good student with a strong desire for greatness. Now, he repeatedly plays too many video games. What teen doesn't these days?
Our oldest, Courtney, has graduated from law school and is anxiously looking forward to passing the bar so that she can be a US Army Jag lawyer beginning in August 2021. Her and Rick are living in the Dallas metroplex with their two dogs, Winston and Jake. Courtney is baking cakes in her spare time and Rick is working with his mom at Patriot Paws as the general manager.
Meagann is currently on the downhill slide for graduating NMSU with her bachelors in History Education. She is hoping to snag a job teaching at the university so she can work on her masters and be debt free. Next Sunday afternoon, she will be marrying the love of her life. Her fiancee, is a young man whom she met here. Erik is a police officer at NMSU and is pursuing his criminal justice degree. And before you ask, she didn't meet him and obtain a speeding ticket along with a first date.
A huge shout out to COVID for screwing up all the wedding plans. What should have been a beautiful golf course wedding has turned into a backyard event with catering courtesy of Costco. The only bright spot is that this wedding is costing us pennies in compared to what it could have been. I can't say that Greg and I are unhappy about that.
I wish I could offer up some personal pictures this year for Christmas of the kids or something. I only have dog pictures and for whatever reason my photos aren't syncing easily with the computer. Santa needs to bring me a new mac. I AM NOT REFERRING TO A BIG MAC HAMBURGER.
I found this video earlier today and wanted to share. Anthem Lights is one of my favorite groups. These 2 songs mesh together perfectly. Enjoy!
Lots of Love, OG
