My Daughter is making me Older!!!

My oldest child and only daughter turns 20 today! Each time she gets older I feel older. I can't hardly believe that I held her in my arms 20 YEARS AGO! She is such a blessing and has added so much to our lives! Happy Birthday Katie Jo!

FFH in Concert!

FFH came to my town and gave a free concert! A young girl had raised enough money in our community (I think about $10,000) to bring them in and give everyone a chance to attend. Awesome!!! It was great! I knew most of their songs and got several pictures. They have a great ministry. The sad part was that this was their last concert as they are taking a indefinite leave. Hopefully they will return one day. Their music is great!

9-1-1

As I wrote this date several times today, I couldn't help but remember the tragedy of the New York twin towers falling prey to terrorists attack. So many lives were affected that day. Whether directly or indirectly. May we never forget those that sacrificed their lives in an attempt to save others. May we never forget how we united together in prayer and reached out to those we love. May we especially never forget how God took something so horrible and turned it into something useful and wonderful to reach those he loves. God never desires for us to have pain and suffering but wants us to have life abundantly in Him.

Labor Day Fun!

Friends are awesome! Good food, fun games and great fellowship! It is always a family favorite to have company. We played the game "Mad Gab" where you have similar sounding words that make up a familiar phrase. For instance - "william air ream he" means "Will you marry me?" We also grilled hamburgers and had a hashbrown potato casserole. Mmmmm! Thank the Lord for good friends!
