    OUR ANGELS


    Goose graduated this semester from our local community college with an Associate's Degree in Liberal Arts & Sciences. She will continue her education as it is her desire to become a Child Psychologist. She is recently engaged and is planning for an April '09 wedding. Goose enjoys cooking, the outdoors, crabbing, spending time with friends, working out, finding mouth-watering Weight Watcher's recipes, watching HOUSE, Will and Grace, BRIDEZILLA, and buying Pampered Chef and Mary Kay!



    Bean is very artistic and a whiz on the computer. She and a friend of hers have a web-site where she designs military MySpace layouts. She really enjoys doing this and is very good at it. Bean designed a layout for a friend of the family who recently got married, using pictures from the wedding. It was beautiful! Bean loves animals, enjoys cooking, sleeping, working on the computer, EATING, spending time with friends and family, texting on her cell phone, watching HOUSE, and Paula Dean.

He also enjoys board games, listening to Adventures in Odyssey, and attending the Youth Group at our church. Kiddo also loves to EAT, play POKEMON, spending time with his cousin, NEMO, arguing with Bean, and watching HOUSE.
