March Already!

 The month of February absolutely flew by, and now here we are ready for Spring Break!  It's crazy to think that a year ago, we were packing for a ski trip to AngelFire, NM, and came back to a completely different Covid world!  We are again packing for a quick Spring Break ski trip but praying all goes back to normal when we get back!  Here's a look at what we've been up to!  

Lots of One Act Play (OAP)!  Caedmon and David after District competition.

Bangs advances to BiDistrict!

Getting some vest help before Zone awards!

The Freshmen OAP group!

Caedmon got All-Star Cast at Zone!

Due to Covid, we can't watch the award ceremonies, but thankfully someone does a fb live for us!

We're not able to take pics or videos during their play because of copyright laws, but there's Cambree in green setting the stage!

Chris & Caedmon

Sweet siblings!

Cason has been busy with 2 track meets!  He is learning the hurdles and doing great!



He got two second places at one meet and two third places at one meet!

Cambree got her cartilage pierced - she's been waiting for basketball season to be over so she could get it done!




Track season...where you're either sweating or freezing!  

Caedmon is running the mile and the 800 on Varsity this year!  His PR is a 2.38 in the 800 and a 6.02 in the mile, but he's working hard to break 6 in that mile!


He's also playing center field on the JV baseball team!

Baseball games are LONG...but at least I have a cute hat!

Some random things going on - measuring family verticals one night when Caedmon came home and told us his vertical!

Delivering all over Texas = street tacos in San Antonio!


Caedmon spent a morning reading The Hair Book to the classes in the elementary - he loved it!

Paw & Bmaw bought a toy hauler and are excited to officially retire and travel the USA!

Also delivering all over Texas = getting to see my sister real quick on a trip out to East Texas! 

We still have homemade pizza nights...sometimes!

My dad saves every scrap piece of wood he can find and then creates masterpieces!

That day we ran out of water and I looked like this after a day in the shop...

Our family is also in the middle of a Marvel marathon, because I've never seen any of the Marvel movies!  I'm enjoying them so far!  (We're watching in chronological order)

A Wednesday night house church service with the Prescotts when our church was canceled due to weather! 

We built SO many fires and had SO much snow this year.  #overit

February Snow Craziness!

Goodness gracious I feel like 2021 will already be a year to remember!  We were hit last weekend with an ice storm, snow storm, freezing temperatures, whatever you want to call it - it was insane!!  Each day is kinda running into the next one, but so far we had church cancelled all day Sunday, a 15 hour power outage on Monday, a 8.5 hour power outage on Tuesday, water issues/internet issues, and school late starting one day and cancelled for 4 additional days!  It's been CRAZY!! 
And this is why I never have any food in my house....

Power finally came back on at 9:30am and we were HUNGRY!

I stole this from Caedmon's Snapchat!

We are the only ones with a fireplace, so our place was the place to be when it was 43 degrees inside Mom & Dad's house!

Some 42 and sitting by the fire!

Heating up leftover chicken pot pie!

And SO MANY games of Settlers!

The first night with no power, Cason stayed up most of the entire night feeding the fireplace to keep us all warm!  

Blu cooking bacon in the fireplace 

My sweet baby!

The kids were thrilled to get up and watch church online! ;)

A Valentine's Day to remember, that's for sure!  I sure do love this man.

Grandma Cambree living her best life.


We were SO THANKFUL that Chick-fil-a gave away free sandwiches on a day with no power!  We got 9!  It was a long line, but so worth it!

Still working in the shop when we can!



That paint gun is COLD!

Cambree led worship with Blu on Wednesday night and it was the sweetest thing ever!

My mini-me...who acts just like her Daddy!

Staying warm!


Did I mention we've played a lot of Settlers??

A new haircut (finally!) for Cason!

Last basketball game of the season!  


Oh yeah, we threw a Super Bowl party in there somewhere!  This girl is my person.  There is nobody else like her!  (And it's been a really good 2021 for the PresWells, because we've had 5 get-togethers so far, and one sleepover!! ;)

The last of the Winter Formal pics!  Chris, Malachi, Caedmon, Cambree, Bri, Rachel, and Ashley

Caedmon & Rachel - love them laughing!

So sweet!
