Our Friant family lives in Eastern North Carolina (Jacksonville and Wilmington). The family name came over when my parents moved here from France. You can find out more on the family history page. Also take a look at our picture galleries and hobby pages.

Summer Update
Posted: Wed, May 27, 2009 by Jakim
Since Easter, Morganne has attended Bring Your Daughter to Work day on April 23rd. She had a lot of fun with Jakim at work. She did not care that much for the server room and the work in there, so she did what other "adults" do and she talked with the IT secretary.
On May 2nd Morganne's dance center had their Spring Recital. Morganne did a great job. All the kids in her class were fantastic! Their tumbling was wonderful. Doing dual somersaults, back-bends, and more. Rebecca does a great job teaching such a wide variety of ages and a great job with the young ones.
Our school is wrapping up for the summer break. We finished Friday, May 29th and had a party at the park to end the school year with some friends. Morganne has done really well with all of her subjects. I will be incorporating a Music class into her lessons next year. We will be learning about the various periods of music and who were composers during that time.
Jakim will be teaching Morganne how to swim shortly. He has to wait until the water temperature is warm enough for him to get in above the ankles. Right now, he says the temp is still too cold! She just laughs. She's ready to learn how to swim. Crystal is hoping it'll be sometime in June. Beach trips will begin for Crystal and the girls the first of June. We will be meeting up with some friends every week as we have in the past. Woo-Hoo! The kick off of summer.
Spring Outlook
Posted: Fri, Mar 27, 2009 by Jakim
Our family is looking forward to the warmer weather, gardening, and planting flowers come the spring. The girls are looking forward to the annual Spring Egg Hunt with Great Aunts Wavy and Niddie. Easter time is a wonderful time for us to remember what Christ did for us on the cross. We all love the season of Spring. The new growth coming alive all around us, the birds coming back and chirping! It's truly a glorious season.
Not far behind spring, comes summer and that is probably the girls' favorite season. Summer means Beach time!! And this summer, our hope is to make more trips to the beach and Lake Leamon. Jakim is planning on teaching Morganne how to swim this year. We have many plans for the upcoming seasons.
