Scripture and a Snapshot


This scripture is not where I am right now, as much as it pains me to admit it.  I don't have a like-minded love for service, especially where we are sent to serve right now.  I know I need to work on it since I want the church to follow in these verses.  We've just finished up our first fundraiser for camp and it was a lot of work for the husband and I.  I did this work not because I love God, Jesus and their people, but because I did not want us to look bad.  So stop and re-evaluate!  I have been praying that God would change my motives and give me a heart for service.  I pray that our church would see this.  I pray they see how GREAT God is and be moved by God to love to serve as well. So this is my scripture and a snapshot.

Snow Day!!!!

Even in Texas we still get snow.  

Our cotton fields need the moisture and everyone needs a bit of fun today.

The cats have already been outside checking it out and running back in to get warm!

There will be snowballs thrown when my poor husband comes home from church ... he can walk to work.  

Just keeping it real...... this is my snow day hair!

Happy February First!  Back soon with some updates to our house!

Holiday Crazy

Somehow we were triply busy this holiday season.  My husband graduated from Seminary early December, we organized and hosted many youth fellowships and a fundraiser.  Then we decorated and made gifts for family members.  Finally we travelled to celebrate the season with family and on the way home got sidelined by a flat tire that took 4.5 hours to fix the Monday after Christmas.  So here are some of our pictures from this very busy but fun holiday season!
