I Miss My Dad!!!
- This blog was written on 3/26/2009 -
My dad died a year ago today.
I took some time this afternoon to remember him.
The things I remember and admire the most about my dad is his relationship with God, our family, and the people that were fortunate to be around him. I say that because he loved people; because he loved God.
He was solid!
I miss him!!!
I think about him every day but I wanted and needed today to be special.
It was a good afternoon!
I love you dad!!!

Leverage
Wow! What a busy weekend for our family. We had the wedding and all that goes along with it from rehearsal to relatives and friends being here.
In spite of all that was going on we made sure that we were at our church FRC.
We also made sure that those that were still here visiting went with us.
I guess you could say that we used the wedding to leverage others to come to church with us.
I heard Pastor Troy use this word a couple of years ago when he challenged moms at Mother's Day to leverage everything they could to get their families to come to church with them on Mother's Day. That simple word has stuck with me since then.
One of the greatest times of year to do that is coming up with Easter.
It is an awesome time for us to leverage something to get others to church on Easter Day.
We are having a bunch of services at FRC. I would encourage you to be there and leverage everything you have to get others there!

"It's A Beautiful Day"
Friday was a beautiful day for our family.
My daughter was gorgeous. As her dad I was so proud of her.
God blessed us with great weather, friends and family to make this an incredible memory for all of us.
We are all exhausted and tired but it was worth it all.
Here are some pictures that describe it all far better than I can.
Thanks to all of you who made this "A Beautiful Day".

Mixed Emotions
Today my oldest daughter will be getting married. Everyone I run into ask me how I feel.
I am not nervous!
I am not sad!
I am not upset!
I am very happy and excited!
I took time this morning to thank God for today. The weather is beautiful outside but even more than that, I have a beautiful daughter.
She is beautiful on the inside and the outside! She has never given us any problems. Every time I think about her I smile. She makes me happy.
Another reason that I am happy today is because she is marrying a great young man.
Jimbo loves my daughter, our family, The U, and best of all he loves God.
We are very blessed!
There are some mixed emotions in this whole thing...
The hurt of letting her go!
The joy of giving her to a Godly man who loves you!
I am doing the ceremony with the help of my dear friend Matt Miller.
I will let you know how I do. If I do shed some tears they will simply be tears of joy.
I LOVE YOU NOEL AND I AM PROUD OF YOU!!!

Livin'Above The Rim
Yesterday was a great opportunity. Several of us from the FRC staff got to go to the American Airlines Arena to do a video shoot. Pastor Troy did an awesome job. The person that he got to interview was awesome as well. It is kind of a surprise so you will have to wait and see who it was. Easter services at FRC would be a great time to see who it was. We were able to hang out in the arena where the 2006 NBA Champions "Miami Heat" play. It was an incredible experience.
As you can see I got to see what it was like to be above the rim...February and March are huge months in our family this year.
I guess you could say we are "Livin' Above The Rim"!
Kelli and I celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary last month.
We also celebrated 20 years in ministry at FRC.Next week we will celebrate our daughter's wedding.All I can say is, "God is good" and we are enjoying "Livin' Above The Rim".
