TCC

We just returned from Denver City and TCC. We took Jaylee and Kolin. Wes stayed in Canyon to take care of Mia. We had another family come with us from Dalhart and one of Jason's college friends met us with his son. We saw some old friends and met some new friends.
I hope if any of you have the chance or will take the chance to expose your kids to functions where there are Christian kids from all over who meet to sing and praise God. There were 608 people registered. I know God blesses us when we put Him first!! I know our kids see the time and effort we put into their relationship with their God.
I am so encouraged by what we heard and saw in Denver City.

19 years on the 20th

I am happy to announce the 19th Anniversary of my kidney transplant. My family went to Dallas for my check up last week and I got a great report. Thank you to God!! It does not seem like 19 years... it will soon be longer that I have had my transplant than I did not have it.... It is strange when you get to a place in your life when you measure time by how long you have been something besides alive.... ie. bdays. Jason and I also just celebrated our 15th Wedding anniversary. Whoever coined the phrase "Life is good" sure knew what they were talking about. So to each of you out there reading about our lives, Life indeed is good... But how much sweeter still to know that this life is not all there is... we have a greater hope and know that eternal life is great!!
