This is Ryne and I at the gig on Saturday night. Ryne's old band had a show and they even asked Ryne if he wanted to play a few of the old songs with them. He of course said yes and was so excited. He did a great job and had alot of fun.
This past weekend we got to see and visit alot of people. Riley got to see Bebe and Papa out at the Lake house after church. We were excited to see them too.
Thanks Honey and Preacher for a great weekend and for babysitting Riley on Saturday night. We had alot of fun and cant wait to see you this weekend.




Recent Events

As you can see, we got snow last Friday! It was the first snow for Riley and the first snow we have had as a family. Now I know this is nothing compared to snow that Ryne has seen, but this was a big deal for me! Below is a special message Ryne left for me and Riley :)



This is Truitt Kathy. He is the founder of Chik-Fil-A. He came to LeTourneau for Chapel on Friday. He was a great speaker and we both thought it was so cool that he could come to LeTourneau.

 So of course we had to get a picture of Riley with one of the cows. Of course she just slept the whole thing :)

Scuba Certified!

This is Tyler State Park. It was really pretty. The area that we were in and the weather were both so nice. Riley and I tagged along for his final class.
One of the 1st tests they had today for their final certification, was to walk in a strait line, there and back, using their compass. This is so when your underwater if you can't see anything but your compass, you can get to where your going. (He passed by the way)
Him getting all his gear ready to dive.
Him and Brandon.
They took the class together and are "diving buddies".

Finally in the water!

The second part to the certification was to use your diving skills to dive to the instructor and back using your compass. (Ryne is the one on the left, Brandon is on the right)

Going...
Going...
Gone!
They had such a blast and are now officially certified.

Their scuba class has been going on all semester on Tuesday nights. This was one of his P.E. electives. They had two dives in the pool on campus and two in a lake. Today was their final dive to get certified. It was a lot of fun to watch them, especially because Ryne and Brandon have so much fun together.

















Our 1st train ride!

These are some pictures of Ryne and Riley playing in the train station.
She loves playing with daddy!
She has such a beautiful smile

*tickle*tickle
I know, our first train ride and we are standing in front of a bus!
Last weekend, Riley and I took a trip down to Clifton just the two of us. Ryne came on Monday. We had planned to ride the train and were both so excited but, as you can see, we did not ride the train. There were some problems with the engines and we ended up getting bussed the entire way. Even though it made for a very long day we were so glad to see all the grandparents and aunts!
We both had such a great time. Thanks Cait for picking us up from the train station and to Honey and Preacher for a great visit. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Bergren for letting us stay with you too. We can't wait to see you all again, hopefully it will be soon. Maybe we will get to ride the train some other time with daddy too!
