The Nicks

Wow! February flew by! I looked back through my phone's photos and wanted to share of the memorable moments February brought.

I had an early morning meeting that allowed me to watch the sunrise over the new Broadway Bridge.

I stood in awe of what a great Sunday school teacher my husband is for the elementary kids at our church. (I'm just the class hall monitor.)

I also stood in awe of how many ribs Caroline could eat at our favorite BBQ place, Central BBQ! 

We took a family trip to Memphis, visited the Civil Rights Museum, and talked to the girls about the importance of this history. 

I spent some time exploring OKC, including getting a 'backstage' pass at the Thunder Arena.

I visited the greyhound adoption center at the dog track in West Memphis and learned this track is not only a vital economic center for Arkansas but it is the most profitable dog track in the country. 

I discovered that cheering on the marathon runners is just as fun as running it!

While I don't think all my nights away from home are ideal for the girls, I know its the best for our family right now. However, I do wonder what they think especially since our family structure is our 'norm'. I found this worksheet in Caroline's homework stack sometime this month...it made me not feel as bad about doing what I do because I hope it inspires her to find a job that she loves to work hard at.
