Hey everyone!!! Hope you all are having a nice weekend, ours has been wet and cold.

Good luck to Jared on your physical test, can't wait to hear more about it! Also, to the two of you-Happy (late) Anniversary!!! Wow, 5 years! James and I will be celebrating ours in July, we can't believe where the time has gone but wouldn't change it for anything.

James still hasn't heard anything from the DPS but Michael Mickley's wife told Susan that it took then about 3 weeks+ to hear back when Michael was trying to get on. . .just keep those thoughts and prayers for strength and understanding. Neither of us want to rush into anything because we know that God has special plans for our career paths but until our opportunity comes up, we need to stay strong and positive. Brock is doing well, I'm not sure if anyone has visited his website but James got us a puppy for Valentine's Day!!! He is just the sweetest little puppy, and he and Brock are doing very well together.

Glad Ryan is doing better. This year has been horrible, we've been sending children home left and right from school, and the teachers have been out as well. We have been doing pretty good the past few weeks (knock on wood) so hopefully we're clear after our last "episode."

When the get-together is planned please let us know. We'll check our calendar and checkbook to see if we can make it! We sure would LOVE to be there!!! We still haven't been to April and Zac's new house, Blair and Jay's new house, and of course I'm DYING to meet Kate! I can't wait to get her in my arms and smell her sweet head! There's nothing better than the smell of a baby behind their ear. . .it's weird but I LOVE it on all baby's. I still kiss Brock behind his ears!!!

Ok, take care and we love you all!
God Bless,
James, Shavonne, and Brock Allen
