This fall, Ellie has started her athletic journey and she has started with soccer. She was super excited about signing up and even more excited when she found out she knew 4 out of the other 5 kids on her team. In fact, the coach of the team are some of our good friends, Aaron and Becky Travis. She has been doing so great and it's been fun helping her understand that though we've ingrained in her to always share, when she's on the soccer field, that ball is hers and she is to do what she can to take the ball away from the other team and kick it in the goal! :) It's been a big laugh watching these little 4/5 year olds learn the game. Here are some of our pics from the season:
And here are 2 videos of Ellie's 2 goals in the last game... pretty awesome!!
Oh my goodness! So big! LOVE the victory celebration from the first goal :o) I remember my first goal at that age... forgot which goal was ours and ended up scoring on myself LOL
after 4 years of a great friendship, kevin and i were married march 9th, 2002. God has blessed us with two amazing girls... ellie - born on may 2, 2005 and halle on september 13, 2007.
where did we begin?? we started out as working folks in dallas... kevin worked for arthur andersen and i worked at the annuity board of the southern baptist convention. and a quick 16 months later, we packed up and headed to ft worth for kevin to go seminary and to work for brothers under christ. i spent our 2 years there working for merrill lynch. in july of 2004, we packed up yet again and headed south to austin where kevin joined the staff at the austin stone community church. we couldn't be more excited for where God has us and how He is using our church and our family for His great Name and Kingdom in this city.

My favorite is the end of goal one when Kevin's voice cracks.
or that would be my favorite, if the man couldn't fire me. ;)
