My dad always taught us that “a fool votes a straight ticket.”? I guess that comes from a political scientist though.? I am finding that statement much more appropriate the older I get. I have read several blogs from a whole lot of people talking about the craziness that is the 2008 Presidential Campaign.? Some, […]
Finally getting some pics up from our trip two weekends ago to Branson.? It was really good to get away after Parent Teacher Conferences on Thursday.? We are really proud of Taylor and his progress into a really cool, smart little boy!? It is nice to have an “easy” Parent Teacher Conference–not something that mom […]

One of the awesome things about this spiritual growth campaign is a 40 Day Prayer and Devotional Guide.? We actually have started a website that you […]
Mark Dinwiddie has been sending us Multisite/Missions Nuggets of Truth each week for a couple of months now and I am starting a new category of them so you can talk about them and comment.
