We have been slackers this summer when it comes to updating our blog. We were able to take a trip out to Utah in June and July. We had a lot of fun. The picture above is the whole Droge family (my parents and their kids). The only one missing is Adam who is serving a mission in Lubbock, TX.

This is Me, My brother Byron, His wife Elizabeth, and Becca.

This is Becca and I with my Parents.

Becca and I with Greg (my brother) and Wendy (his wife). Becca is holding Greg & Wendy's son Xander (I hope that is spelled correctly). This is the portion of the Droge family that now lives in Atlanta (along with Sarah and Ethan of course).

My sister Annie with her husband Mike, their son Jefferson.

In Provo, Ethan & Sarah enjoyed playing in the pool that their Aunt Marie bought for the kids to play in.

Sarah with her Grandma Whitaker and Cousin Sadie.

After our trip to Utah we went back to Clarksville, TN for a couple of weeks to wait for the Army to do its thing. On July 20th, we finally moved down to Carrollton, GA to get ready for school.
My brother Bruce came and visited us for a few weeks. The picture below is while we were at the Atlanta Aquarium. Both Sarah and Ethan both really enjoyed the fish.

The aquarium has an area where you can pet sting rays. Ethan did put his hand in the water as well, we just didn't get it on camera.

Sarah loved trying to pet the stingrays. She was able to touch them a few times. Bruce is the one in the background with the white shirt on.

On Aug 1, Sarah turned 5. We had a Birthday party with a bunch of friends over. Since we were new, there were more adults than kids, but Sarah had a blast.

Like Mother, like daughter. She loves those beads.

Sarah and Ethan both love using her new easel.

Sarah ready to go out the door on her first day of school. She is now in Kindergarten with two teachers and 20 kids in her class. She loves going to school and she loves her teachers.

Here we are waiting for the bus the first day, which never came. We haven't had a problem since that first day of school. She loves riding the bus with all of her new friends.

Ethan and Sarah loved their uncle Bruce. Not sure why we don't have more pictures of him. I think all the pictures of him are on his camera (go figure).

This is Sarah playing on the cow at Stone Mountain.

Here is a fun video of us taking Ethan to bed.

Ethan loves puzzles!

We are really enjoying being here in Carrollton. I am getting my Masters in Psychology at the University of West Georgia and my Masters in Christian Ministries online at Lubbock Christian University. So far, I love all of my classes. Becca and the kids are doing great as well as well while we get settled into a new place. Luckily we have a good group of friends and family in the Atlanta area which has made the transition very nice.
