Greetings,
First of all, I hope that everyone had a blessed Christmas and New Year. We had a great holiday in Greenville, however Robert and Ai were missed. Little JJ had his first taste of Christmas. He liked playing with the discarded wrapping paper more than the toys he got! Go figure, we spend all this money on the latest and greatest toys for our kids and all they want to do is play with the box that it came in. Caleb had a pretty good Christmas, too. The highlight was the basketball goal that Judymom and The Captain gave him and the pimped out lowrider bicycle that his Papa got him. The best part, by far, was just having the family together. We've included some holiday pics for your viewing enjoyment.
So here we are, waiting anxiously for the new arrival of the next McCoy family member. I'm talking about the yet to be named Princess McCoy, daughter of Robert and Ai. We are literally days away and Mom has got her bags packed and ready to go! Make sure that you pray for a safe and uncomplicated delivery. It looks like we'll be taking the 2007 McCoy family vacation out to L.A. in April to see the babv and all the sights. We can't wait.
We'd like to send out some congratulations to the following family members:
Mercy McComb is getting married!! That's right, Mercy. The lucky fellow is Mr. James Klonts. The big day is June 2nd in Chapin, SC. Also, my cousin Marc Mehagan is getting married to Erin Nelson in Greenville, SC on March 24th. I can't believe it, little Marky Poo all grown up and married. Only thing left is to pop out some little Mehagan babies!! Come on, you gotta keep up with me and Rob!! We also have two new graduates coming up. Virginia McComb will be graduating in May from the University of South Carolina with a degree in sociology. Janna McComb will be graduating in May as well from Leesburg High School. Janna has already been accepted to Florida State University and a small Bible college in Columbia, SC, but she has not made a decision yet on where she will attend.
As for us, we are still plugging away. We've been looking for possible job opportunities in the Charleston area. Bluffton has kind of lost its luster to us. The beach is great and the scenery is nice; it just doesn't feel like home. Really, any situation or relocation that would allow Keely to stay home with the baby for a couple of years would be ideal. Bottom line is this: God has a plan for us, we just need to be patient and trust His wisdom. Our life is blessed and we have no room to complain about anything.
Jeremiah is growing FAST! He's as big as a beast and he eats like one, too. He's been talking up a storm lately. He's already saying "dada" and "Cah-ya" (Caleb), but we can't get him to say Mama. He's also officailly mobile. He's crawling now and is starting to explore his parameters. His world has just gotten bigger!
Caleb has once again brought home straight A's. He has also made the paper several times since his football season ended. The local paper listed him as one of the local athletes to look out for next season. Quite an honor. He continues to make us proud.
One last note. We send our love and sincerest gratulations to our dear friends Geoff and Jennifer Coons. They are expecting..... Twins!! Anyone who knows Geoff and Jennifer knows that they been tested with their share of trials since getting married. This is such a blessing and answer to prayers and can't think of anyone who deserves it more. Keep us updated, guys!
That's all for this installment of "What the heck are the McCoy's up to?". Stay tuned next month, same bat time, same bat channel. Now enjoy the pictures. Love you all.
Brad, Keely, Caleb, and Jeremiah
