Fireproof Your Marriage

Dan and I had a nice little get-away to Daytona this past Friday and Saturday. We went with 10 other couples from our church to the "Fireproof Your Marriage" Conference. The speakers were Gary Smalley, Ted Cunningham and the team from Sherwood Baptist Church (Alex and Stephen Kenrick, Michael Catt) These are the guys that produced the movies "Fireproof" and "Facing the Giants". It was great!

Some pics...

Dan with Alex Kendrick(The coach from "Facing the Giants")

Do you remember the opposing coach, Bobby Lee? He's actually one of the pastors at Sherwood! Here we are with Gary Smalley. He and Ted Cunningham wrote a book about (shhh...(sex))

Civil Air Patrol at MacDill

Our CAP squadron spent the weekend at MacDill Air Force Base from Friday night on through Sunday helping to make the Air Fest 2009 a success! Daniel had a great time.

Here he is with his buddy, Levi.

These are the Thunderbirds...they were awesome.

...all the parachuters landed safely! A Great show all the way around!

Jaret on Piano at Church

Difficult to locate Jaret...he's on the left under the word "Worship" on the piano. He was really looking forward to this night, he practiced hard and I think he really enjoyed it. Good job, Jaret!

Chicks, Flicks and Chocolate!

Come with me to Cornerstone Friday, April 3rd from 6:30-10:30

for a girl's night out!!

Running and Flying!

Falling way behind on life's events! A couple of weeks ago, Daniel went with Civil Air Patrol to fly in a small plane. This was his first time up so he was a little nervous, but he had a great time anyway! He even had the chance to fly the plane for a few minutes! I think all the cadets are going to have the opportunity to fly every month! Glider flights are even on the schedule. Very cool.

Track season is in full swing again! Daniel just clocked his best mile time(5:09) at the last meet in Crystal River.

Puzzle Fun

Jaret loves the 3-D puzzles. We found this one at the thrift store for a buck. He looks a little overwhelmed in this picture...

...so maybe this will help.

Things are coming along nicely...

Ethan pitched in to help!

oooh....now it's starting to take shape!

Time + Patience=Success!
