Sunshine!

A beautiful day in the neighborhood, Tupelo, MS. School as normal and a little horticulture mixed in as the students went and helped plant some green beans. The white tomatoes given to us by a friend in Missouri are beginning to come up. To these we have added some red and yellow tomato plants so our harvest should be colorful.

Mike and Brenda went dating last night! Olive Garden provided the food. We had a relaxing time and went to Lowe's afterwards. The kids did their normal Monday night pickin' with Brother Mitch Robbins.

Brother Terry Herndon, our friend and leader of our Wildwood's Reformer's Unanimous program, has a birthday today. If you know him, let him hear from you.

Steve and Jennie's blog has been updated, too. They have a lot of neat pictures of some of our friends from Indiana. We are a bit jealous in a good way. :-)

First Blog

You have to start somewhere. This blog represents the Sauvageot family American, southern version where ya'll is singular and all ya'll is plural.

Introductions are in order.

Mike, the husband and daddy, aged like sharp, sharp, sharp cheddar. Mike helps pastor the Wildwood Baptist Church of Tupelo, MS. He is also the principal of Heritage Academy.

Brenda, our sweet wife and Mamma. Mamma teaches at Heritage Academy, teaches piano and voice lessons, and keeps track of Daddy. She is the sweetness of the family, the jelly of this PBJ.

Cari, our daughter is 20 and taking courses in college. She is praying about what the Lord would have her do and leans toward mission work. She is an accomplished musician and singer, helps with a Sunday School class, and teaches at Heritage Academy, too. She also is very pretty like her mother.

Caleb, our baby boy, graduated last May. He stands 6'5" and weighs 235 lbs. While he does not play linebacker, he does preach a pretty powerful message when he preaches. God is leading Caleb into ministry and has already blessed his work. He teaches PE, teaches guitar lessons, teaches a Sunday School class, and is an intern at Wildwood Baptist.

RECENT ACTIVITIES

Steve and Jennie Sauvageot and their family from Australia were just with us for almost a week. We had such a good time!! Along with all of the great food we enjoyed, we also reintroduced ourselves to the game of golf. That will have to be a blog for another time.

The Sauvageot's from "Down Under" are expecting their sixth child. Pray for them as they travel and visit churches while they are here in the US. The grandparents are certainly excited, too.
