For old times sake

We recently visited San Antonio for a quick vacation and got to see some special people from our Mac Arthur Park church of Christ family (where we worshipped when we lived there). When we got home, I busted out the old photo albums and showed Ryan and Brendan pictures of the people we saw when we were there. I thought it would be fun to share a little of our trip down memory lane. See anybody you know? You may need to click on the image to enlarge it so you can see them better.

Rejoicing with Ryan!!!

We rejoice with Ryan and with the angels in Heaven, in his decision to obey Jesus in baptism.

Acts 2:38 "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

Luke 15:10 "...There is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of GOD over one sinner who repents."

Brendan's first baseball game

This was a fun first game. Wes and "Uncle Shawn" are coachingn and we have great parent support. The photo above is Brendan putting his bat down after a great hit. My camera was too slow to get the hit.

Fun at the Astros

Thanks to a sweet friend who gave us their tickets for Friday's game, we went to the Astros game and had a great time. They lost, but it was still fun.

Time for breather

Things have been a little wild lately. We all went to Dallas last weekend for LTC and then Ryan and I went to San Antonio this weekend for Ryan to compete in the State Math and science competition. We're very happy for Ryan, as he did a fantastic job at both. Here is a quick video of Ryan getting his awards for LTC, and then another one of him getting his award for placing 6th in Science against kids from all over Texas. The kids had all qualified for the state meet in local and then regional competitions. There were about 1300 in the science competition and about 400 in our 5A division. Thankfully Wes and Brendan are both well again, as they were both sick this past week (Wes-flu, Brendan??) My mom had knee replacement surgery a few weeks ago and is on the mend.

A lovely Spring

I enjoy all the color and freshness of Spring. Here are a few pics of the flowers in our yard and a shot that Brendan took of me out in the yard. We also had fun time at the Houston Livestock show.
