January
It was a busy month. Kameron, Skyler, and Brandon all performed at their piano recital.
Sherice had several sorority events
Deion was back in the ATL and the whole family got to see him perform in the band at the Honda Battle of the Bands. This was the first time that his grandparents saw him play in college. The band had Mercedes Benz Stadium rockin'
Skyler and I hit the annual Daddy/Daughter dance. We had a ball!!!!
February
Brandon completed his basketball season
The whole world traveled to Wakanda to see Black Panther
Skyler was named Scholar of the Week at her school
She also attended the first of many coding workshops. She loves coding. I'm not sure what coding is but she can tell you about it. LOL

First day of school pictures
September
Sherice & I walked, strolled, climbed to the top of Stone Mountain
These 2 kids celebrated 18 years of marriage
Skyler turned 7. She had a skate party and one of her best friends, Kai, came to hang with her.
October
Back on the Hill for Homecoming. It was lit...as the young folks say...
Made it to the Queen City to kick it with the crew and watch our boy represent with the Giants. Unfortunately, the Giants lost but we had a great time.
November
Back on the Hill for the last home game
They dropped the top at the Benz & we watched the Falcons take on those stinkin Dallas Cowboys. Great times...other than the Falcons losing on a last second field goal. Smh
December
Skyler and I hit the Daddy/Daughter dance again. She spent more time dancing with her friends than she did dancing with me...
I turned another year older...
One of my birthday gifts was a surprise trip to the College Football Hall of Fame. If you know me, you know that I'm a HUGE football fan. While at the Hall of Fame, I spotted some familiar faces...my uncle, Harry Carson...my college football coach, Willie Jeffries, and the legend Donnie Shell. All of them, like me, played at South Carolina State University. This was a proud moment for me.
Brandon turned 12
Skyler and I celebrated Kai's birthday party at the bowling alley
Me and the boys hit the final Falcons home game vs the Cardinals. The Falcons won...
Skyler is chillin
Sherice & I will close the year out with one of my favorite hip hop groups of all time...The Roots. If you know me, you know how much this means to me.
2018 was filled with memories. I never get too caught up in the thought of whether it was a "good year" or a "bad year". Ultimately, if you got to SEE 2018...it was a good year.
May 2019 be filled with blessings and prosperity!
