Christmas Greetings 2010

CHRISTMAS GREETINGS TO YOU ALL! In lieu of Christmas cards this year, we wanted to send you our warmest regards using our newfound friend-the internet. We hope you enjoy celebrating with us the TOP MOMENTS IN OUR FAMILY IN 2010!

Scott and Emilee enjoyed their first ever trip in a helicopter, overlooking b eautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. The 7-minute ride was a lot of fun for both of us.

Our newest addition arrived on May 5, 2010 at 1:34 a.m. Bailee Jane Myers made her grand entrance weighing in at 8 lbs. 7 oz., 22 inches long. She has been a very sweet addition to our family.

Grant learned how to ride a tricycle this summer.

What a super cute beach bum!

Sadie got to meet her newest sibling. Bailee and Grant were so happy to have her home for a visit this summer.

We took Grant to his first concert - the Go Fish Guys. We had such a great time and even had some time to goof off during the intermission. You'll often find Grant singing his favorite song by the Go Fish Guys - "Na Na Hoo Hoo" ("Stories").

Sadie was able to graduate early from Ridgeland High School in Rossville, GA. WHAT AN AWESOME ACCOMPLISHMENT! Here she is pictured on the night of her Senior Project Presentation. She plans to begin college classes next Fall. She plans to become a Veterinary Technician. She is currently deciding between staying in GA and attending Chattanooga State Community College or returning home to Lincolnton to live with us and attend Gaston Community College.

Scott and Emilee were fortunate to begin having monthly dates (thanks to Nana and Pop's offer to babysit the kids), beginning with this one to the Corn Maze in Shelby. Neither of us had ever been before!

Another fun outing for us was hiking up South Mountain to the falls. It was an awesome, but very tiring day.

Bailee is growing up into a "big girl" now. She is 7 ½ months old. She began sitting up on her own at 6 months old, the same week she cut her first two teeth.

We have been so blessed this year. There are many more special moments we could share with you, including Grant becoming potty trained, Emilee directing four holiday programs at her schools, and Grant discovering the fun of playing Wii. We know that God has blessed us far beyond what we deserve. We continue to try and focus on the goodness of our Lord and on His Majesty. We pray that your days will be filled with many special moments in the coming year and that you are able to see God's hand working in your life each day. Merry Christmas to you all! Scott, Emilee, Sadie, Grant, and Bailee

Running Time Calculator

Calculating running time is pretty easy. There is no shortage of tools that will do it. I don't happen to have one of those tools,
so I created this simple function to do it for me. What I have created, I will share. Enjoy.




Time in MM:SS format
Distance in miles (3.1)
