Surprise!!

Susan, my wife went to TAMU last night to have a girls night out with Kellie, one of her best friend Marilyn (they've known each other since they where 3) and her mom Cheryl.


They did the typical girls things I guess, eat, shop, TALK, eat, talk you know the stuff that you think a father of four daughters would be used too, but it still drives me NUTS. Any way, they come home and at 11:30 p.m. in walks Susan, Marilyn, Kellie( the SURPRISE!!) and Cheryl.


She missed us and actually wanted to come home and spend the weekend with her family. YEAH!! That's what I am telling myself and NO one can make me believe any different.


This morning she came to school with me and spent some time with my kids. They are in AWE of me having an almost 20 year old. She played with them, read them a book and I think enjoyed them for the most part.


I love Surprises. Sometimes!


Loving my oldest daughter,

Jimmie

Lydia Susanne

A high school Senior who is ready to graduate. She is ready to go to college and begin the next phase. Lydia will be attending Hardin-Simmons University next Fall. Cowboy class of 2014!!






She is our theater girl and is hard at work helping to make sure that SWHS production of Willy Wonka is a success. It is going to be so much fun, after all of the kinks are worked out.

She is my girls who has a friend around every corner. We always said that she would never meet a strange and she can always find something to talk about with everyone.

I can't wait to see what happens and how God unfolds her life over the next years in college. She is such an amazing girl. It is so exciting!!

Kellie Renee



Our oldest daughter, Kellie is almost 20 years old.


She is one who is so much like me, attitude, behavior-oh my!! She speaks her mind. We have fun when we are together, we argue when we are together, but we (I) love our time together.


She is a 2nd semester sophmore at TAMU- Proud AGGIE girl and a proud AGGIE PAPA! I can't wait to see what God has in store for her life and the plans that will unfold over the next years.

The Beginning- 12/19/87

Our beginning, we married in Abilene, Tx and have enjoyed 22 wonderful years of change. Our major changes are the births of our beautiful daughters, Kellie- 1990, Lydia-1992, Alisan-1995, and Jamie- 1998. We decided that four was more joy than we could handle.

Over the years we have watched them learn to walk, talk, run and live lives that have made us laugh and cry. They are the joy of our lives and continue to grow and change.

We are now in Houston, Tx. yes the 4th largest city in these United States. Susan can't believe I made her move here and I don't think we could ever get our daughters out of the city.

If you are a new friend or old, read and keep up with our crazy life.

In Christ Love,
Jimmie & the gang
