Welcome to "Life with the Maxies"! Kyle likes to think of it as "Maxie Madness". We live in Hattiesburg and are the proud parents of Kolt Allen who is 19 months and Kylee Jo who just recently turned one month old. Kyle is the head baseball coach at PCS and I am a first grade teacher at Earl Travillion Attendance Center. We attend Venture Church and are so happy that God chose to lead us there! We are so thankful for all of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us and pray that He can use us to be His light for others to see Him.

Pre-Wedding Festivitites



       Well, it has been another busy past few weeks. To sum it all up: showers, two full weeks teaching, final assignments, Kyle’s baseball and wedding planning. Kyle and I are so blessed at all we have received from our showers. I have had so much fun visiting with family and friends while they help prepare us for our future together. My first shower was given by my Maw-Maw in Albertville. My second shower was in Monroeville at Eastwood Baptist. My third shower was a “teacher” shower at the home of Leslie Carpenter. My fourth shower was given by Kyle’s family in Hattiesburg. My fifth shower was given by Whitney Lowery. My last shower will be given by Mrs. Sharon Owens. The only thing I wish is that Kyle could have shared some of these showers with me. Thankfully, he loves finding out what we got and most importantly how many bows I broke!

     I  have been finished with school for the semester since about April 27th. I will begin my Early Childhood Program on May 29th. Needless to say, I have a lot to do between now and then! I know everything will fall in to place and be perfect by June 16th. I am excited that I will be tagging along to cheer on Southeastern in their conference tournament May 22…in Texas. I have never been to Texas before but I am excited for a road trip and “vacation” before my summer classes begin.

     These next few weeks will definitely be cram time and I’m sure a crazier and even more stressed Julia will appear. However, I can honestly say so far I have not been the “Bridezilla” my daddy just knew I would be! J  Also, as I have been breaking the news to some people, there is a possibility that Kyle and I could be saying “I do” over the home plate in Omaha during the College World Series which begins June 15th…funny huh?! (And Kyle and I planned this date BEFORE he was at a NCAA school...I’m not that crazy!) Either way I know Kyle and I will have a beautiful wedding and all I am concerned about is us saying “I do”!
