Wow – busy!!!
 Just got back from the STEP camp out. I had left the house in a complete shambles but Brian cleaned the whole thing as a surprise for me when I got back! What a great guy It was so nice to come back to a nice, clean, refreshing house after being dirty and sweaty all of yesterday and today!

And for the exciting news – STEP is going on a deployment first thing tomorrow morning! This is one of those unscheduled events God gives to us and everyone is really excited. We’re going to do some disaster relief in Gainesville TX cleaning up after major flooding.

Well, I have to go and pack – I’ll try and post some pictures on Friday!

We have had a ton of rain this last week – so much, that the lake is way above all normal boundaries. Below is a picture of the dock…or everything on top of the dock.
 
   
Here’s a picture I took just last week – the water as it is now, would be up to the girl’s knees!
Lori, shows the entrance to the dock.

Of course, we had to take advantage of the unusual situation and had a blast swimming on the dock.

My life is very busy as of late, STEP is still in full swing and my sisters are visiting for a week. Between filming, leading P.T., showing them around and taking care of Brian, my days are full! But it’s all fun and I wouldn’t trade it for anything else.
  Last night I gave a talk on our courtship and encouraged the girls how they could take action now in the areas of purity, preparation, and building relationship with their parents – specifically the dad. Brian attended the session to hear me speak and all the girls said “awwww” when we walked in holding hands.
 
  Here’s a little photo update of what has been going on:
  
Auto Maintenance                                                    Water Safety
  
 Drywall repair                                                               Search and Rescue
  
Trust Fall                                                                                          Confidence leap

So far, so good. The girls are having a blast and so am I!

Take me out to the ball game.
Saturday we went to Arlington to celebrate Bekah’s birthday! She’s a big Ranger fan so a whole group of us went to watch a game – Rangers vs. Brewers.

     


Lori and Stacie were there too – their first baseball game!
 
Katie sat with the expert, Rachel, who could explain the game and teach her the chants.

The whole game went on with very little action, only one run scored by the opposing team about the 5th inning. Then, on the 9th everything picked up. The Brewers scored two more runs and it looked like everything was over. Then it became one of those games you only read about: It was the bottom of the ninth, the home team is trailing by three, the bases are loaded, there are two outs and two strikes – can the batter do it? Yes! Three times as a matter of fact, each batter got one man in and we had a tie game. Then the last man up to bat hits another drive into the right field, the Brewers scramble for the ball but too late! The Rangers put one more across the plate as the stands erupt – what an exciting end!

Bekah and Sam celebrate in the background.

Hey, double guess what?!

 They found our bikes! Mandregor kept on the case, put several links together and got some questioning of suspects rolling. Soon the guilty blamed each other and in an effort to incriminate their pals they blabbed about the bikes and the sunglasses – all of which were recovered!
  Brian, Kevin and I went with Mandregor and a sheriff to the scene of the crime, identified our bikes and brought them home. They are now under lock and key.
  Praise God for His mercy in returning them all to us!
