All is right with the world. Well Madeline's world anyway!!! She started Bracken Christian School in Bulverde, TX today. She is so excited to be in a school that is more like her as she describes. We are so grateful for God's provision in this decision. Madeline was able to shadow(which means you get to attend the school for an entire day) BCS last Wednesday. When I picked her up she was happy and said that she loved it!!! I was so glad to finally see my daughter hopeful for her future again. She is going to continue to play basketball and of course tumble in the afternoons so she will be prepared to cheer(her life goal) next year. We had our family interview yesterday with the HS principal. He asked Madeline some very hard questions. She answered them very well in an adult manner. I was so proud of her. I asked how did you learn how to answer questions like that and she said in speech class last year. They learned how to answer questions as if she was in a job interview. She said she just used the same manner. WOW she suprises me everyday. She is maturing into quite a young lady. She says she knows it was God's plan for her to experience Public school here first because now she knows what it is like and is confident that BCS is his plan for her. Nelson and I agree and hated to see her go through all this to be right back where we wanted her to go. I took some great pictures of her in her uniform which by the way she loves. She hated waking up everyday and having to make a fashion statement which clearly this is not a skill she has mastered. A skill Peyton thinks is social suicide if it is not mastered by the 7th grade.
Peyton is dancing at her first football game on Saturday at the HS. She is so excited that it is also her 13th birthday. She has a cheer/dance party to go to that afternoon and then she is having 2 friends spend the night. I can't believe she is 13 where did the time go? :(
I can't seem to find the cord to upload the pictures but when the girls get home they will load them so check back.
Please continue to pray for a church home. We have been visiting Bulverde Baptist the last 2 Sundays. We are trying really hard not to go to church without any expectations of prior Churches we have been members. I learned that lesson the last time around. It is just a difficult thing to do.

i am so happy she is happy! still had to think really hard about who you were posting about...i miss my paigeriffic! love you guys...tyson says he is working on peyton's present? she txt me that she wants money. such cute and way tooooo old girls. makes me sad, too!
I am glad she is happy again! I hope you all get settled in a church really soon! I still don't feel like we are completley at home in a church here. Very strange for me. I have never lived somewhere 6 months and not been plugged in. And, my closest friends have always been through church. Here they are the neighborhood. Hopefully Southeast will begin to feel more like home, as all the fall programs are starting back up. If not....I guess we are searching again. Miss you guys....aren't you glad we aren't in Houston right now!
