  • So much has happened this past year, much of it not good. Things that have really changed our lives, as we are use to living them. One of them was a personal hurt - the rest affected our church and the Christian witn…

  • I got these questions from Connie. I usually don't do these kinds of things, but I thought some of you might like to try it, too. 1. What did you do in 2005 that you hadn't done before? Nothing....my life is borin…

  • I'm just so angry right now. I just found out that someone who has faked being a friend has been saying things about us behind our backs. And they weren't good things. He's been conversing with others on his secret blo…

  • I can most certainly still tag you... you can answer what 8 things he had to have, or were absolutely charming, or whatever causes people to get married... (can you tell the concept is foreign to me?) Posted 12/29/…

  • Bethany needs some prayer. She isn't feeling well, but is at work anyway. I stopped by about 6:30 and she didn't look good (don't take that wrong, Beth!). She has not eaten much of anything in 3 days. On Tuesday I g…

  • Beth proposed to Kent tonight. He turned her down. 12:15 p.m.: Ok, so yes, it was only a "play proposal". But it sure got everybody's attention Kent is just a good friend (although a really cute good friend). He i…

  • This is going to be a long post, but I'm going to do it anyway. We got our "Family News" letter from Focus on the Family today, and the story in it made me cry. I wanted to share i…

  • Just a note to a certain airman in DC. You are missed. Very much. TRIPLES with EMMA

  • Ok, I don't understand something. Why would a member of a minority (in this case a person of Asian descent) call themselves a name that, when used b…

  • So much has to be decided about the wedding, but Rachael said she wants blue and silver. And she wants yellow roses in her bouquet. But the date is still up in the air …

  • Here's a few pictures from Saturday. Beth looking at her new Fossil watch. She also got 3 sterling silver bracelets. And yes, those are fuzzy flip-flops in her lap. Wouldn't you like to see the picture of her trying …

  • Go here to learn why women usually wrap the Christmas presents. 9:55 p.m.: Ok, I can't stand not being able to tell you. Rachael got an engagement ring for Christmas. She didn'…

  • John 3:16......"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. NIV TRIPLES with EMMA

  • Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.......................I understand completely!!! TRIPLES with EMMA

  • We just got another update on Brent. He is still in the coma, but apparently does have some brain function. The hospital said there is no significant change, but that is actually…

  • I'm not normally amused by the business section of the newspaper, but today the article "Sometimes, strange things come in UPS packages" caught my eye. I thought I'd check it out. …

  • Matt 21:21-22 21 Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mounta…

  • The latest news on Brent Kennedy is that he is still in a coma and has no brain activity. See this post for the story. Brent is 55 years old. I've been going back and reading o…

  • It's just 5 days until Christmas. It breaks my heart that there are people who will not be celebrating it with loved ones. It breaks my heart that there are children who don't have…

  • I was just watching the news and saw a remarkable piece on a soldier named Jeffrey Adams from Baton Rouge. He lost a leg in Iraq. He has a prosthetic leg, but has had trouble walk…

  • This is a prayer request. There is a man who I believe to be a distant cousin of mine (haven't proven it yet, but think it's just a matter of time), who had a stroke last week. H…

  • We are having a Christmas caroling hayride after the evening service, and then desserts and hot chocolate after caroling. Walmart has the best cheesecakes....... Beth needs pray…

  • Quote of the Day (in fact, maybe even for the year!): "If you don't go in the kitchen, you won't get burned. But you'll also go hungry." TRIPLES with EMMA

  • This might seem a strange post, but I was reading some misinformation on another blog that made me think about it. A girl said that her blood type was O+, therefore, she could …

  • Well, I'm off to see my neurologist. As long as I'm doing well, I only have to see him once a year now. But I still don't like going to the doctor! That's probably because I've spe…

  • I wanted to post a portion from the book I am reading, because I think it shows the attitude we need to have when we have sinned, or when someone else has. We have a tendency to …

  • I am reading a VERY good book right now. It is called "Every Young Man's Battle", by Stephen Arterburn and Fred Stoeker, with Mike Yorkey. Mike Yorkey is from Focus on …

  • My sister sent Steve a birthday card, and I just had to tell you about it. He was 51 yesterday, not exactly old, but not a spring chicken, either (sorry, Dear!) It made t…

  • Happy Birthday Steve TRIPLES with EMMA

  • On the 3rd anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, our friend in the Air Force wrote this piece. I asked his permiss…

  • John 14:2727 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. NIV Do you have that peace that comes only from a faith in Jes…

  • I swiped this from another blog - a young man named Sam, who was stationed at Aviano AB in Italy. He is in Florida now. But I thought it was very good, and more people needed to see it. He was speaking about his relat…

  • Every year at Christmas time, our volunteer fire department puts Christmas lights on fire trucks, and drives Santa in his sleigh down every street in Deer Park. They throw candy, and sometimes toys, to all the kids. …

  • I thought I would post some pictures of our church with the Christmas decorations up. It is absolutely beautiful in the church when the lights are off and all the candles are lit. Our sanctuary was started in 1903 and th…

  • I think tomorrow will start "diet day". Yeah, I know....seems pointless to start in the middle of the Christmas season. And next Sunday night we are having d…

  • The 50th anniversary party for my parents is finally over. It was fun, but extremely tiring. I believe we had 55 people. Lots of food: ham, egg rolls, meatballs, sausages, chicken salad sandwiches, quiche, veggie trays, …

  • In a few minutes, I'm off to the church to decorate for the 50th anniversary party, which is at 2:00 tomorrow. This should be fun - all 3 of my sisters and 3 l…

  • Alright, it's officially cold. I don't know what the temp actually is out there, but there is a biting wind. My sister just called me from Sam's Club, where she went to get the food for the party on Saturday. She sa…

  • Bethany is working on the memory album for my parents' anniversary party. It looks great. Her imagination is younger than mine, so she does a better job. My imag…

  • I normally don't watch Oprah, but an ad for today's show caught my eye this morning. They have a panel of "etiquette" experts (I don't know what you have to do to qualify for this position) who are answering questio…

  • I'll be adding some Christmas pictures to my blog today. If you want them, you may save them, just as I did from Connie's blog. I have gone back and added some to previous December posts. Thanks to Suzanne for the l…

  • If someone can figure out how to add more hours to a day, let me know.

  • YES!! An email (Thanks, Sweetie.) Still love you - that's not going to change. You have impacted our lives in ways you don't even understand. It's almost 3:…

  • What does your life say about you? Our pastor likes to say, " If you were accused of being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?" If we are…

  • Read this article . It talks about a changed life. It's very good. I'm impressed but not surprised. God can do anything. Even if you think He can't. We had a workday at the church today. Nine of us showed up. Yeah, not …

  • It's been 2 weeks today since the last communication. This is driving me crazy. We've gone that long without talking before, but it's different when you know you …

  • Beth and I left for the funeral about 8:45 this morning and got back around 1:45. Huffman is about a 45 minute drive northeast of us. It was tiring and long, but there were lots of old friends to hug and kiss, which made…

  • I thought someone might like to listen to the radio station we listen to - KSBJ . It's contemporary Christian music. Right now they are playing all Christmas music. I was reading more on Philip Mark's website and was st…
