Little Bear!

Mackenzie got a new hat and mittens from Holbear and Papa Mac (my parents). I think she likes them!

Here is Mackenzie opening her first Christmas presents!

I wonder what it is??

Yeah, wrapping paper!

I always wanted a kitty!

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!

Baby Dedication

Mackenzie was dedicated in our church on Sunday! She stayed in church through the whole service because it was all music and did great!

Getting dedicated (don't mind my expression)!

Getting dedicated is hard work!

Mackenzie Meets Santa

We took Mackenzie to see Santa last weekend. She was much better than a lot of the other kids seeing Santa. One of the elves was telling me that a lot of parents have to get in the pictures (unexpectedly) with their kids.

Holy Moly... 6 Months!!!!!

Mackenzie is six months old today!!!! I can't believe how much she's changed! She's rolling all over the place, sitting unassisted, and eating solid foods. Soon she'll be crawling, cruising, and walking! Enjoy a few pictures from today!!!

Edit: Just got back from the pediatrician and Mackenzie weighs 19 lbs (90% percentile) and is 26.5 inches long(67% percentile). She is healthy and happy!!!

Helicopter Video

Here's a video one of Cole's student took of Cole and another student doing some maneuvers in a Chinook. The video shows a pinnacle landing. These landing would need to be performed when there is uneven terrain (think Afghanistan).

Peter Stovall

As many of you know. Cole's dad, Peter, died on November 21st. He had been in the hospital for about three weeks after he fell in his barn and suffered a traumatic brain injury. We were able to visit him in the hospital after the accident. We traveled to Arkansas this last weekend for the funeral and burial. Here is a link to the obituary and also a nice video memorial.
