Summer

WOW, the Duckett family has been so busy this summer!!! I can't believe July is almost over!!!

June was very busy as I directed Go-n-Grow at Cove Church. It was Claire's first time to participate. Here is a picture of her in the big t-shirt that she loves. (it's not good to take pictures with the sun in her eyes) She had lots of fun and definitely enjoyed the music and motions the best!!

Claire also went to see her first movies at the theater this summer too - Shrek Forever After and Toy Story 3. She enjoyed both of them. Since she is in love with dogs - we had to search every local store to find a slinky dog from Toy Story. Unfortunately we couldn't find any, but Daddy came to her rescue and found one on ebay. She asked everyday if slinky dog was on the front porch because that's where UPS and FedEx drops things off. She was very happy the day her slinky dog arrived!!!

Claire has also been continuing her gymnastics class at the Matrix this summer. She has enjoyed having Riley in class with her. She misses Mr. Kevin teaching her but loves Ms. Pennie too.

We had a great Father's Day at Bridge Street. A yummy lunch at PF Changs and a ride on the carousel. A trip to Bridge Street isn't complete without riding the carousel. :)

Claire also took a few swimming lessons with Daniel at Piedmont pool. Thanks to Melanie we got a few great videos as she cheered her on while I watched from afar. :) She still isn't comfortable with putting her face under the water but she is definitely more comfortable and independent in the pool.



I can't believe my precious baby girl is three years old and starting preschool in August. Everyone tells you time flies by when you have a child but you can't understand until you have a child of your own. God has blessed us with a loving, sweet and energetic little girl!!!

Our family is also on a new journey as we help start 100X Church in Huntsville, Alabama. Cove Church has been our church home for almost ten years. We have been blessed to meet and serve with wonderful people along the way!!! I was the 4th & 5th grade coordinator the past three years and served with three amazing women of God!!! I will definitely miss seeing the kids' sweet smiles every Sunday!!! They are a great group of kids!!! We know God will continue to do amazing things at Cove!!! It'll always have a special place in our heart!!! We are very excited to see what God has planned for 100X Church!!!
