Good times...

We have had quite a week!
It was so great to be with family and enjoy the good times together.
Way too many families and friends only get together for funerals or surgeries!
Thanks to all of you that helped make my wife's 40th a special event.


She was surprised!


If you click on the above picture and enlarge it,
you will see the shock that Alayna also felt at this great party!

Karla was reading notes from family and friends who couldn't attend.
All of our friends and family mean so much to us.


Priscilla, Kassie, Misty, Ashley, Amber and Shannon

Kelly Meacham and David Ouellette

Carla Clark (my cousin) and Me

Karla and the Williams sisters - our nieces.

Thank you Mandy for all your help!
...and everyone else who helped with the serving.

Chad and Cameron with Alayna Elms

We got to see Ashlyn!
This was the first time since her birth in January that we got to see and hold her.
She is so sweet!

AND THEN…
…to be able to go to church today with the great family of God that is being brought together here in Pflugerville - what a life! We had 34 in service today, one away from our record number! The young man who was with us on Wednesday night brought three family members to service with him today. His Dad owns a moving company here and offered their services to move our church belongings to the new location! Since no one in our church owns a truck, I think I will take him up on it. God knows right when to bring someone along. They were also praying at the end of service. God is so good.

We will be painting the walls of the new location this week. I will try to post some pictures this week. Off to a new week...enjoy yours!
