Kaden and Lincoln's Award Ceremony

Sunday afternoon some friends of ours Kaden and Lincoln Andre, that are in the CAP program got the Spaatz Award, which I believe is the highest award that the Cadets can get! 
It was a real blessing to be at the ceremony, and hear their testimonies!
Praying the Lord's best for you boys!!!!


Mommy made the cake! :)







Mr. Flynn making his speech. And he gave them flags that had flown over the State Capital







Dr. Martin


Reading a declaration from the City of Heath




Congressman Hall giving the Award, reading a letter from President Bush, giving them flags that had been flown over the U.S. Capital, and told some jokes and stories! :)













Standing ovation for the Cadet Colonels!!!


The Mayor and Mayor Pro-tem of Rockwall giving them both a key to the City of Rockwall! 




Giving honor where honor is due...there is no mistaking where these boy's hearts really are: to bring glory to God! :)






Surrounded by their family



One very proud Mother!!!




Samuel and I had to go out to his truck for something, and as we were walking down the hall, I heard someone behind us....lets just say we were properly chaperoned....or body-guarded....or something!!! ;)


(the boys were having fun with the punch flutes! ;P


To make the day even more fun, Samuel took Andrew, Peter and I to Braum's for lunch beforehand, and he came home with us, and we had the most amazing time just chillen' with the family!!! unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of us... :(


the guys had fun playing basketball as it was getting dark...which made for some really neat  pictures! :)
