WHEW!!

A week ago Cindy's parents - Tom & Dora - showed up to help us do some upgrades. Well. . .we did it! Thanks to their help we were able to. .
  • Replace the counter top
  • Add new sink (it's deeper)
  • Add new garbage disposal (you say dispose-all, I say disposal)
  • Removed wallpaper columns from the breakfast area and kitchen
  • Added textured wallpaper in breakfast area (to cover up existing "marble" wallpaper)
  • Painted the kitchen and breakfast area (Gobe Desert - light tan)
  • Cleaned out cabinets
  • Cleaned up and organized laundry room
  • Removed old door & frame on the dog's room
  • Installed new door and doggy door on the dog's room - now called the Rec Room
  • Installed tile in the Rec Room
  • Installed new water heater
  • Called for a chiropractor and a masseuse! (Ok we haven't done this yet)
If it hadn't been for Tom & Dora there's no way we we would have accomplished all that we did. Thanks Big T and Miss Dora!

This week we moved things around - Elliptical from the office to the Rec Room, my bike to the Rec Room - along with my running and cycling stuff, space for the Harley, cleaned up and organize shelves, and moved my tool box back.

Today is yard work and car cleaning!

I think Cindy's going to be looking forward to going back to school just to get some rest!

Camp is Good!

I'm home from a week at a student camp - Camp Chaparral . I was there teaching students how God created them for a place of ministry and encouraging them to involved - somehow. . .somewhere. I was also the guest of Pam & Steve Sparks. They are wonderful friends from my Lufkin days. Steve is the Assistant Director of the camp. Better give a shout out to the staff - Hey Mike, David, Heather, Doug, Tim, Nate, Govani (spelling?) - thanks for a great week. These guys work really, really hard to make your camp stay the greatest. And it was. But I'm exhausted! I'm beginning to wonder if I'm getting too old for this kind of thing? The worship was great - thanks to the brown band ! Hey Michell, Gabi, Rooster, Noah, and #14. They'll get it. Jon Randles really challenged us with his messages - 7 Marks of a Disciple . Need a speaker that speaks truth with wisdom? Get Randles. College or students. He's good. But the late nights and early mornings - WHEW!!

Question for You

I was listening to one of the local radio stations - kwyq, The Way FM, this morning on the way to the office. They were asking the question, "If you could live in a totally Christian community would you?" Responses varied. I would be interested in knowing what you think. So. . .I pose the question to you. . . If you could live in a totally Christian community would you? Why or why not? I can't wait to read your responses. Mike

Favorite Cereals

As I was scarfing down a bowl of Total I was thinking about my favorite cereals. Cereal has always been a part of our family - it didn't matter whether it was grabbing a bowl before school and sitting with my Grandpa as he at a bowl of Raisin Bran after church on Sunday nights. Growing up I had my faves. I would still eat them, but me and a lot of sugar in the morning is no bueno. As many of you can attest, it's not like I need more sugar! So I also have favorites now. Here's my list of favorite cereals: Then Cap'n Crunch - the original and all-time favorite, and breakfast with the Cap'n - how do you beat that? Frosted Flakes - don't get soggy in milk Peanut Butter Crunch - Cap'n Crunch and peanut butter, what's not to like? Wheat Chex - add a banana, mmmm. . .mmmmm. . .good! Now Total - good for you and doesn't get soggy too quickly Kellogg's Low Fat Granola without Raisins - good all around cereal Wheat Chex - still like me a bowl o
