Canton participated with Jamestown on the Choir Festival today at CNU. He worked for weeks on the songs and spent many hours after school perfecting his instrument. We are so proud to say that he was selected as State Alternate! He is the first Jamestown freshman ever to be All-State eligible! We are so proud of him!!
Congratulations to Canton! He is the region runner up in Forensics!! We are so proud of him!
Almost 18 months later it is time to say bye bye braces! Here is the last shot with them on!
We traveled to Fredericksburg today for a gymnastics meet. Adleigh had fun, but it was a tough meet with lots of teams and many older girls. Then, we went to and spent too much money at CE Cheese. Canton is back tomorrow!
Canton is in the air right now bound for Disney world! We cannot wait for him to get back, we already miss him so much!
We had breakfast together. He was a great brother tucking them in last night as Owen. The girls had a a rough morning missing him.
Have a good flight!
We tracked his plane.
FaceTime! He said he had fun swimming and hanging around the hotel. Wednesday is Epcot and Thursday is parade day at MK!
Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas to All!
The Murphy kids sure must have been good this year! Santa brought them all musical instruments and Adleigh named their band “The Squirrels”! Canton has already taken off with learning some chords on the guitar. Liberty can actually make a great sound on the violin, as opposed to my creaking staircase sound. Adleigh has played her ukulele so much she has a blister 🙁
We enjoyed FaceTiming and opening gifts with Nanny and Rhonda. Thanks to Becky and Ben for the games they sent!
Liberty is so excited to her new silky pjs and sheets!
Thanks for Pap for the cards! So glad we got to spend time with you!

We made cookies, a gingerbread house, and played games, Merry Christmas!
We visited Pap and the Murphy crew for an early Christmas.
We enjoyed a nice lunch at Pap’s followed by a stroll around his property and spending some time together. We are always so grateful and so blessed to have time with him!
Then we had dinner at Poppy and Grandma’s with Beth and opened presents. Merry Christmas Everyone!
Adleigh is so fun to watch in Christmas Carol! She has so much expression and her voice is loud and clear! She truly enjoys her time on the stage! She had a show last night and didn’t get home until after 11, bed near 12 and still wanted up at 745 this morning to go do 3.5 hours of gymnastics and two shows today! I am in awe of her passion!
And Liberty played harp in the lobby before the show! What a talented trio that I am so blessed to call mine!
