Oldest Town In Texas

Hey! Yes, we are alive and kickin! Just really busy these days. Wes has his last football game for the season tonight and Sid takes the final part of his Qualifying Exam tomorrow. He will be doing back flips (if he could) when this test is over. There will be celebration on Friday evening!

We were blessed to be able to make a trip to Nacogdoches, Texas last weekend. We met alot of wonderful people and visited and caught up with many old friends. It was a great time. I took some pictures of this lovely place. These were just snapped on the run, but I would love some time to take some serious pictures of this town. It is the oldest town in Texas. So many Victorian homes and rich history. Here are a few quick pictures. Blessings on your week! Amy

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Share with God's people who are in need.
Practice hospitality.
Bless those who curse you; bless and do not curse.
Romans 12:12-14

I LOVE Nacogdoches & many of the people there. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
Was GREAT to talk with you... I miss friends to just talk & share with.
Continuing to pray. I think the scripture you posted today was a good one to reflect on these days!
Blessings, dear sister!

Enjoy.  Alaska memories. Love this fat Santa above. Thrilled with how this little wreath turned out. Happy Christmas decorating! Remember: Your family probably does not care if your house looks like something out of Southern Living. They love the traditions and old ornaments and chipped Christmas mugs and plates. Our kids sure do. It is hard when we compare what we have to other people's "things" or decorations. We are all so richly blessed. I say, just don't do it. I am trying to hav

Camp Blue Haven-2012

Image
Mountains green, sparkling streams, every morning you greet me. Pine trees tall, waterfalls, blue skies canopied o'er me. May I know as I live and grow, God forsakes me never. May His love from above bless Blue Haven forever.  And what a blessing it was this summer to be back up in the cool mountains with so many people that we love.  As I reflected on this special place I thought about how big of an influence it has been on our children and our hearts.  At camp time slows down. There are so few distractions. The focus is on fellowship, enjoying God's creation and growing in knowledge of Him.  It has been a place to teach us what our life in this world should be about. It has also been a glimpse of what I think heaven will be a little like.  It has taught us to stay close to one another, to be accountable to each other and to live an out loud life for Christ. No holding back. Living it. Because of the encouragement and growth that happens here we are bett
