I almost quit. I am behind, I am busy, I know the main reason I do this is for my own documentation. But lucky you, I decided to continue to update the Whaley Life. One day when I get all the blog books done, it would have looked strange to have stopped at Thanksgiving in [...]

We were so blessed this year to spend Thanksgiving with the Whaley side. Terry reserved a cabin for us on Lake LBJ not far outside of Austin. The cabin slept 14 and we had plenty of room to play and eat and eat some more. The kids enjoyed each other and we experienced the trails [...]

One great thing we snuck in before the end of the season was strawberry picking. I have heard it is a fun thing to do and we finally did it – us and the cicadas. During the month of May there was an attack of cicadas in at least the Nashville area. We starting hearing [...]
Where to begin, where to begin… (View this video last. It hosed my machine every time I clicked on it.) Noah Let’s start with Noah. This week was his 6th birthday. Well, that just sounds weird. It would have been his 6th birthday, or I can say it was 6 years since his birth. But [...]

We had a wonderful day celebrating the Risen Christ. Our church was able to meeting in a local hotel and I personally had one of the most powerful mornings of worship. We sat together with many from our small group and I loved to see the kids together and even watched Alyssa perform a song [...]
