Every Kiss Begins With Kay....

What an unexpected surprise I woke up to this morning. My Honey got me this:

I have been wanting a necklace from Jane Seymour's collection for a long time. I was so excited to be surprised with this when I woke today. I am so blessed to have such an awesome husband!

Rolesville Park

Timmy was too small for these last year but he has mastered them already this year. Woohoo!

Ham on Wheels

On the phone with Nan and Popsie the other night Timmy put his toy story pig hotwheels in front of the phone for his Popsie to see...lol.

Took the kids to the park with Maw Maw. Little Miss Iris was doing her best to keep up with the boys. She did a pretty good job too...lol. Timmy and Tristan got on the big kid swings. I'm so proud of them!

Repairing a bike

Scottie showed Timmy and Tristan how to use tools on a bike over the weekend. They had fun playing with the tools.

Playground last week

Timmy played at this playground last year and this year he can climb all the stuff. He is loving it!

Tim's 2025 Accomplishments!

Tim had a huge year in 2025, moving through three weight classes. He began in the 61 kg division and finished in the 71 kg division, with the June weight category update shifting the weight classes. Despite all the transitions, Tim made tremendous progress. He earned 4 Gold Medals, 4 Silver Medals (6 Silver finishes) & 3 Bronze Medals (4 Bronze finishes) - which were his 1st USA National Level Medals. To top all that off he is the record holder for the snatch & total in the Youth 71kg division for WSO Carolinas. A standout year filled with growth, experience, and momentum for Tim.

Heaven Gained a Hero Aug. 16, 1935 to May 16, 2024 - 88 years old

It's hard to forget someone who gave us so much to remember. Pop (Franklin Eugene Neal) was born in Ashland, KY. He graduated Thomas R. Brown High School and was a proud Army National Guard Veteran. He loved cars and working on them. He loved racing them with his boys, Jeff and Scot. He could fix just about anything. If he didn't have a tool for something then he'd make it. He valued family above everything. He loved traveling and going to amusement parks with his kids and grandkids, especially Disney World. He will forever be missed and forever be in our hearts! (this is not his official Obit)
