I'm Back! With Updates

Well of course to start with I have not posted in a LOOOOOOOOOng time! So much has happened since school started I don't know where to start. Cason is famous, or at least in his lil world he was pictured on the spring enrollment schedule of his college. So many people have made mention of it he feels a little like a celeb.


Cason is transferring to OSU for the spring semester. He and I will go on Thursday and find a place for him to live as well as go through the orientation. He is so ready to go, not so much his mother ready to let him! He has been at Altus for three semesters and I know it's time for him to go but still not so easy. He is majoring in Chemical Engineering and so far has a 4.0 gpa, hope that stays that way when he gets to Stillwater :)



Kelissa has been in fall softball, cheerleading, and a bit of cross country. Her life is always full. She decided to compete in the Miss Oklahoma Teen USA pageant on Nov. 19-21. She decided four weeks before the date so she has been working out non stop. It's nothing for her to do a three hour workout after school, so not seeing a lot of her these days.

Kade just finished up Middle School football. They had a good season. He is doing weight lifting now. He is competing today in the AFR speech contest and if he wins will go to State. He sort of has his sister's skills in public speaking so I'm hoping for the best. He is a bit of a celeb himself right now, everyone thinks he looks like the teen heart throb, Justin Beiber. You should see his "One Time" impression.

Chloe is rotten. She has a large vocabulary and uses it on all of us! She is starting dance in a couple of weeks. She did cheer camp (sort of) and is just charming us to death. We are still pinching ourselves to make sure this is all real.

Chi is getting ready for his third birthday. He is so excited, but still prefers to be 'the baby'. He is getting over a bit of his shyness. This is making him a rather 'rowdy' boy, but who cares. He seems very bright and still 'loves' his grandma. I don't care, I'm the mom, but this boy is handsome!!


Chloe and Chi have been home two years as of October 16th. It is still hard to believe.  They are both doing so well. Better than we deserve. We are so blessed and thankful. My babies are growing up so fast!...all five of them. Life is fun in the Sanders' household, we just need more 'time' to slow down.

I love the update! So many fun, scary, and exciting things all at once! ALL of your children are so Beautiful...but, I completely get what you're saying about Chi...it's a matter of grateful! He is handsome and gets more and more handsome through the years! I really like how time somehow naturally fills in the gaps and binds our children and family. SO good to hear form you!
