Road Trip/Birthday/Basketball...Fun...

The activities of the past weekend were such a blessing to us.
We... spent time with DaddyBob...
Celebrated a birthday for Wes.
Hugged Will's neck and enjoyed his company
 Played lots of domino's with DaddyBob and friends
Met Will's incredible friends and future housemate. Also met the parents and sister and brother of one of his friends.
The Vanderpool family.
Awesome, wonderful, warm and loving people.
(I think Will played the wrong domino in the picture below. Yikes.)
So. Much. Fun.
Glad they included us old folks. Nice.
We...went to an Aggie basketball game...Thanks DaddyBob!!
Sweet Abigail joined us.
Crazy and lots of fun
This is what the Aggies think of Tech students. Some people really get into it.
Will and Wes visiting with old, good friends. Tucker and Hunter.
The fans were almost more entertaining than the game. This guy was dancing the dance team's song as they were dancing it. He was hilarious.
Oh yes, there was a game going on too...

More silliness
Loved this guy...
Our oldest studied some of the weekend away...good for you son!
If you ever travel on any road close to Madisonville, Texas don't miss the cleanest restrooms hall of fame. They really are the cleanest!
Good coffee too at Buc-ees.
We had a great trip and saw lots of people that we love dearly.
It is always nice to be home though.
The daily bible scriptures that spoke to me this morning were:
Matt. 13:26
At that time men will see the Son of Man coming in clouds
with great power and glory.
31- Heaven and earth will pass away but my words will never pass away.
33- Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.
Blessings on this new...spotless, full of possibilities...week! Amy

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
