Blogging

        We decided to start this blog with the idea that our out of town family and friends could keep up with what is going on with the GA Barr’s and just for fun for our local friends.  It will take some trial and error on our part, or help from the kids to keep this up.

So, here is what is going on here.  Josh and Matt are finishing up their first year of high school and all and all have done really well.  They love it.  I am not sure if that is coming from the social side of things or academic.  Hum!  Kendall is finishing up her first year of middle school and she has not loved it so much.  She has her purse stolen the first week, but the year has gotten better.  I think she has adjusted well.  Payton has one more year of elementary school left.  It is hard to believe Hollis Hand will be done with the Barr’s after next year.  That will be 12 years there!  Wow how time flies.

Payton is getting his braces on the week after school- May 28th.  June 6th some of us will head up to LeAnn’s for Eli’s birthday party and then on to the cabin in Gatlinburg for a few days.  Our big vacation come in July when we all 6 are cruising to the Eastern Carribean.  We can’t wait.  We hope some Illinois family will be coming down in between some of that too.

Dave, Chief Ranger, is about to begin his busy time of the season- although, I didn’t know it could get busier than it has been since he has taken on this new position.  He loves his job though.

We stay pretty busy around here and are looking forward to summer, no early bedtimes, no homework and no getting up early.  Yeah!!!  I am sure we will be eager to start school back in August too.
