New Lego Box

Early this morning my Ash and double trouble aka (Alexis and Sadie) caught a flight to Houston to surprise Ash's Grandma for her 80 birthday. Today I spent most of my day tackling some household projects, and tonight I was able to catch dinner with my great parents. Throughout the night, my father and I talked about sports, and the fond memories that we made during my athletic career, but more importantly than my sports accolades were the conversations that centered around my childhood friends. I found this portion of our conversation the most intriguing. My Dad and I would constantly say, "I wonder where they ended up?" Then I would mention another person and my Dad would say, "Hmm, I wonder what they are doing?"

Sadly enough don't we do that as Christians as well? Life gets busy and we disconnect from our community. We lose touch, and eventually the body of Christ as a result of our selfishness looks like a box of new legos waiting to be connected.

As a new day arrives, I dare you to catch up with somebody that you haven't grabbed a cup of coffee with in a long time, make time for that person that God has placed on your heart for weeks, or simply enjoy community some how, some way.

Live to Love.

The sun stood still

Today we witnessed the sun stand still at Mission Abilene. Our church community donated our entire offering to pay for a Water filteration system that will provide clean water to approximately 3000 people in Brazil. Glory to God

Continue to dream, dreams really do come true.

Lost Sleep

The last several days have been extremely painful around our household. Our little Sadie, had an incredibly hard time cutting her upper front tooth. Countless nights of lost sleep, witnessing your lil one be in pain is quite tough to witness. I'm happy to say that Sadie did, finally cut her front tooth, so needless to say our house has got a little bit more sleep recently. I thought I would share with you a pic that was taken prior to her tooth finally breaking through.
