Hi Jamie,

What Fun! This is the first time I've taken a look. Thanks for introducing me to a whole 'nother avenue on the internet highway. These pics are your typical "good o'l summertime" fun.

Hey Jamie! It's great to see the neighborhood happy & bustling. Brings back memories... JD and I are enjoying a little rare Northwest sun as well, and spending time w/ Skyler who is currently home from college for summer break.

Jamie,

I just so happened to be online this morn. trying to make my blog look like something and I saw your post. (my very first post how fun:) Tell Jason- Miss Melissa said hello and WOWIE I really am getting old(er). That was such a special time in my life and I cherrish that I was blessed enough to be a part of those memories. Not sure if you remember but Lauren my daughter well she is now 11.5 crazy how quickly it all goes by. I will be visiting your blog and keeping in touch. I need to go back and read what all you have. The reason for getting involved in the blog world to begin with was my cousin's daughter (sydneyalvey.com) was in an accident on christmas day 2006 and has been walking through a brain injury. Any way I will fill you in as we move along the blog journey.

Blessings!
Melissa

Jamie,

My back ground had always been in business- HR and operations and when I met your family I had just moved to TX in hopes of putting a marriage back together. My heart is for children and it was so much fun to be a part of a special time in there lives. Your son I remembered more than most of the other kids because of his eagerness to learn and his sweet personality (very well behaved)I am sure he is nothing less even at his age now. I probably would not know most of the kids if I saw there names but yours I remembered:) Any way marriage failed had to get a real (pay wise)job and I met my husband whom I adore. We are so blessed with our family and I am even more so to have his family that I now consider my own. On to the Morrisons (they need prayer) The baby boy who is the only one remaining on earth is doing well. These folks have been under tremendous attack from the press with the "I told ya so's". They are doing well and are an amazing family with enough faith to move mountains! They never fail to praise even in the hours of darkenss. They do get all of the positive posts on there site (ran by friends). I encourage you to visit there page and spread some much needed sweetness. The Masche family I have visited there site as well and I think they are busy bring 6 tiny babies along and not doing a lot of updating. Thanks for the complment on the blog- it was harder than I thought I am having to learn a lot by failure.

Blessings and I will be watching for updates on Jamie's Crew,
Melissa

Jamie,

How funny on the family posting comment. You know the same day (with in hours of posting) EVERYONE called me. Kinda makes you crazy- cause the reason for doing this is to keep the family up to date on pix and such. Well not much I can do about it all. YEAH for Ryan! The twins are SOOO cute- I am sure your loving this time in there lives. Its hard to believe that Jason is that old. Sounds like he is having fun with band, football and school. I feel like the pre-k class he was in was such a great program with Ms. Bobbie and it had to give him an awesome start going into his primary edu. Did you hear about the charges with Childrens Palace last year? So creepy to think that we pay folks to keep our children safe and they take such advantage. I always thought that Childrens Palace took great precautions to make sure that nothing like that happened. They always made sure we respected the children at all times and no one was ever really alone with any of them (certainly not in a private place). Makes me sick and I am glad to be at home with my kids for that reason. Lauren was never in a public daycare (always with friends) unless I was with her. I guess you have to trust the Lord cause it could happen anywhere with anyone. I really enjoy your pictues and am looking forward to seeing Ryan strttin' around in his "cool" shoes!
Blessings,
Melissa

Jamie,
Hope you dont mind that I keep posting messages on here. How crazy is that (that was the Mr. Matt) I went out and searched the other one and it was at the watauga center. I do not recall knowing this person there. He was given 40 years (if you ask me....never mind dont ask me:)
here is the link. http://cbs11tv.com/local/local_story_174220030.html I guess you will have to copy and paste too.

Blessings

Hi Jamie...just winding down on Sunday night and thought I'd check your blog. What cute pictures! Love the sunbathing picture. Hope you are doing well. I missed yet another McMoms meeting...Cannon was sick again. But no worries, he seems to be better now. Have a great back to school Monday and talk to you soon!
