Help Wanted!

Dear Friend,

Are you ready for a change? Do you desire to be in a place where you can really make a difference for God? Do you have a heart for ministry in a growing local church? How about a desire to work with children/teens/adults/seniors/Hispanics/etc.... ?

I have just the place for you! Come to beautiful East Texas! Our church is on the launch pad, ready for take off!!! God has been doing wonderful things for us recently! Our beautiful church building for one... with basically no debt! And the different people from the community that have taken interest in attending our church. (I don't have room for everything here... please reply for more information.)

And the town? Known for beautiful flowers both in the spring and the fall. It is hard to describe the beauty of the area... rolling hills, towering pines, wonderful fall color, and breathtaking spring flora. We have a large medical community (three major hospitals) and many other job opportunities! There is already a busy mall, and rumors of a second to come soon. Several major department stores, a zoo and THREE Wal-Mart Supercenters!! :)

All interested parties please reply to this post for further information!
Thank you for your consideration!

Birthday Week!

Well, the last week has been quite busy! Angie, Dad and I all have birthdays within a week! Angie's as you know was Tuesday, mine was Saturday and Dad's on Monday. My Grandmother's birthday was the 29th... it's hard to believe she has been gone almost four years! We still miss her.

Friday night we had Angie's party. Everyone dressed up as an historical character and we played 20 questions to try to guess their character. We had a lot of fun with that. Wonder if you can guess who I was? :)

Saturday we just had a little get together for pizza and cake at our house. I told Mom that after the big Bang the night before, I would be satisfied with a little "pop" that day! :) So we had my family, and Mark's family and our adopted grandparents, Bill and April.

Dad said that millions celebrated his birthday... it was Labor Day! :) He wanted to get together with people. We had a hot dog roast and a bunch of other great food at my parents house and invited people from church. We had a fun time with everyone!

So here are some of the pictures from the past week. If you want to see more indepth, just go to my public gallery.

Night Life

We have had quite a few visitors to our front porch at night recently. We may have had them before, but we have been coming home later the past week with Bible Club. Anyway, here are some pictures of our "night life."

A big visitor!

This guy is a Polyphemus Moth. He is quite large, and took me quite by surprise when he flew up last night.

These guys are frequent visitors:

I think they like the cuisine! :)

Hmmm.... must be camera shy. I know some people like that!
They've had enough photography for one night!

Sweet Sixteen!!!

Happy Birthday, Angie!!!

I can't believe you are sixteen already! I hope you have a wonderful day today! (and party on Friday night!)

Love ya, Sis!!


Here are pictures from last night:
