Visitors this past weekend


The soccer games at Grace-Kate loves to chase the ball!

I love dinner time

Cousin Joe and Lisa visiting from Anderson

Kate received some family visitors this past weekend. Cousin Joe and Lisa Davis (minus Reece) came up on Saturday to see the soccer games and visit for the day. It was great to see and be with Joe and Lisa, we were able to eat breakfast on Sunday before they headed back to Pendleton. We also were blessed with G-Mom and G-Dad coming up for Saturday to visit during the soccer game as well. We were able to go to dinner and spend time together. Kate continues to grow fast and becomes more independent each day. She wants to feed herself and she wants to go where no Kate Briscoe has gone before walking all by herself everywhere! Her new thing is bicycles...she loves to see people riding bikes. As long as we keep a ball in her hands, she is a happy camper. We thank the Lord for her life as she continues to grow so quickly and cherish everyday!

Kate growing up way to fast!


Kate likes to watch Daddy come home from work.

She loves her playhouse...where is the phone?

Kate learning to drive at a young age.

Big brother Henric from Sweden.

Kate has enjoyed FINALLY being home these last two weeks since the softball tournament. To be back in her bed and normal routine has been good for the entire house...especially Mom! Kate has enjoyed going to the Grace soccer and volleyball games to see Dad. She also has found a Swedish big brother, Henric Knutsson from Sweden came to Grace to play golf this year and is from Nassjo where Daddy used to play basketball. He has spent time at the house talking Swedish to Kate. We are thankful Henric is here and wish him all the best for a great year! Her top teeth are finally coming in and she is now in the stage of wanting to feed herself. Next thing you know she will want to take the car for a spin around the block. She loves to wrestle and always wants to have a ball in her hands (I think Dad is happy for that) or find one on TV.

Mom & Dad took Kate back to Dad's hometown of Roanoke, VA for Labor Day Weekend. It was great to see and be with Papaw and Grammy Briscoe. We were able to visit with Uncle Tony, Aunt Brooke, Cousin Tate-Mateya and Tregan. We went home not only to visit, but for the 2008 Interstate Church of God Softball Tournament. The weekend went great and we thank the Lord for wonderful weather and funds raised for missions in Paraguay. Kate enjoyed watching Granpa Cole, Uncle David and Uncle Justin play from Westlake. G-Dad, G-Mom and Aunt Patty made the trip and Uncle Doug, Aunt Connie and Aunt Courtney made it down from Western PA. Kate kept wanting to chase the softball all over the field and never wanted to miss anything at the ball fields. Thanks to all the grandma's, aunts and uncles who helped take care of Kate...what great memories!!
