Camp

On Monday, myself and 3 other brave souls will be headed off for church camp in Glorieta, NM. As most of you know, Glorieta is probably my most favorite place on this planet, and I'm looking forward to getting to spend the week there. I'm also looking forward to what God will reveal to me during the week. That's why it is such a wonderful place to me, not because it is the most scenic, but because it is a place where God seems to be ever present and very chatty. God speaks there. I know God doesn't just speak at Glorieta, but it often seems in my life that is where He speaks the loudest.

I'm also excited to see how God uses the week in the lives of the 3 young men who will be going with me. This could be a very important time in their lives and their walk with Christ. I hope you will pray for us this week, but even more so I hope you will continue to pray for us when we return. Going to camp can be a great time of learning, but I think it's when you return that the growing part begins.

Sabbatical

This week I well be going on my first sabbatical ever. I believe sabbatical is French for "spend a lot of money", in case you were wondering. I'm planning on heading up to Denver to hang out with a couple of my life long friends for a few days. We are planning on playing golf (the too much money part), worshiping at a church that I have no responsibility at whatsoever, and recalling stories from the past. The great thing about spending time with these guys is they already know everything about me, and I can be honest with them and they can be real with me. I'm looking forward to it all.

Ramblings

Every time I take the last trash bag out of the trash bag box, it makes me pause. The box that used to hold the bags, will now go in the bag it use to hold. That weirds me out.

T-ball games are an hour of hilarious entertainment.

God still amazes me

Wind......ugh

My oldest daughter made up a new word the other day. The word is "privateness". I like it and I'm determined to work it into everyday conversation.

"House number 3 on House Hunters, offers so much privateness." or "Privateness is overrated."

I'm working on it.
