Goodbye 112 Oak Pointe

It's official...we sold our house. As of September 19th, this house belongs to someone else. Thank you Lord for 5 wonderful years. You abundantly blessed us and we leave with such sweet memories. May your spirit continue to be present and welcome.

A small distraction...but one BIG God!

Okay, anyone who knows me...knows that I have a real soft spot when it comes to animals. So, when I found this little bitty kitty that fit in the palm of my hand, I knew I was in trouble. As I held this helpless little kitten, I lifted up a plea to the Lord and said "Lord, you know how you've made me, you know I can't ignore this kitten. However, you also know that I have a huge mountain of other responsibilities to handle...packing, moving, homeschooling. So, Lord, please bring an answer quickly." A few hours later...He did just that. I had gone to PetSmart to purchase formula for the kitten and the cashier was part of an animal rescue organization. She agreed to take it and care for it. Amazing how God cares about every detail of our lives...what an awesome God we serve!

Fun Run

Brian and Brandon ran their first competitive race on Labor Day. Dad (Brian) ran the US 10K classic and the boys ran the kid's 1K race. They all did great! Brian said it was definitely the toughest 10K race he's run....five very steep hills. The boys woke up the next morning and felt what "sore muscles" were for the first time. May this be the first of many races they experience together.
