Grass Day!

You would expect to hear someone say, "laying our grass down today", because most use "Sod" for grass. Not here... You, plant grass here. Row after row after row... I think all will understand that I never had grass in my backyard before... LOL

Friday! Then Friday School

It was great to be invited today for Friday Services. After Friday service it was great to know that there was Friday school. During service I looked around and saw people and followers from all Nationalities fellowshipping together. It was great to hear and say our Lords name. People from India, China, Japan, Africa, Australia, Europe all worshipping together. The first message I heard was so perfect and so familiar... It came from Mark and Matthew... Love God, Love People, and serve the world!

Bags Packed

Everything checked and ready to go... Bags Packed!

One Week Away

I have one week until I leave for Saudi Arabia. I know it will be here in no time. It's funny how things become so nostalgic when you know that you will soon be missing those things that are so readily available daily in ones own life.
Most important is our family and friends. I have been so blessed and thankful for the family I have. My loving wife Donna and my beautiful daughters Mahala and Piera what joy we have together as a family. My son Carson who I never got the chance to watch grow up I think of you daily. My son Grayson, I miss you every single moment of every single day. I will never stop wanting to be with you. I am reminded that we will be together soon, one day in Heaven.
Our families, to our father(s), to our mom(s), brother(s), sister(s), aunt(s), uncle(s), cousin(s) and all their family, we love you. We know that our families make up a great God loving, people loving family that is joyous.
Our friends, what beautiful and enduring friends we are so  lucky to have. We have friends from all walks of life. Our friends, we love each one of you..
As I stated you become a little nostalgic. I wish I could personally spend all the time in the world with each of you before I (we) go.
Here we go...
