We need your prayers

Upon returning home from our wonderful vacation (see photos below) we found out some very disturbing news. We were contacted at our home regarding my husbands business and within just a few short hours our world was turned upside down. We learned that a friend that my husband had served on numerous boards with and then gave a job to had embezzled thousands of dollars from his company. After a very restless night my husband had to go into work the next morning and watch as the police cuffed and arrested this man who he had trusted.

It has been a long couple of days and of course our knowledge is this journey will not be short, so I come to you and ask for your prayers as we continue on this road! Knowing that others are holding us up in prayer is of utmost importance at this time. Thank you!

Good Times

This was the view that we looked out on each day....how awesome!

Myself, Mary and Kris at the Boathouse watching the sun go down!

God's beautiful creation!

We had an absolute wonderful time...it just was over way to soon! Thank God for time to rest and refresh, time to be with those we love and time to see all He has done!

Our Vacation

I know I have been missing in action these last few weeks...but maybe I'll have some time this next week while I'm vacationing! We are heading down to South Carolina and I am sooo excited for a little R&R, hopefully some sunshine and some quality time with a few friends and my man!

Happy Easter

Breakaway for Women 2008

Well I had another awesome weekend at The Breakaway for Women Conference this weekend! There were great speakers, the keynote speaker for the weekend was Lysa TerKeurst, she is the president of Proverbs 31 Ministries, is the author of many books and has appeared on The 700 Club, Good Morning America and the Oprah Show. She has an amazing story of how God told her to adopt two boys she saw performing at her church, from the Liberian Boys Choir. The story is so cool, they are even in the process of talking with "Hollywood" about making it into a major motion picture....of course they are laying down the details and are unwillingly to change any part of the story...and of course the most crucial details is how God orchestrated it and that He be glorified. I don't want to ruin it, but part of the story is how between her, her church family and friends they now have adopted 30+ boys from Liberia!!!! God is Good! One other thing I learned about Lysa this weekend is.......she is a blogger! You can check out her blog, its on my sidebar. Be sure to click on the Oprah link to hear her story!
And sisters...some awesome worship with Christie Nockels. Our theme song for the weekend, One Pure and Holy Passion...its one of my favorites!

I saw a t-shirt from one of the speakers at the conference....it is somewhat controversial. We actual spent quite a bit of time discussing it this weekend. So I'd like to put it out there and see what you all think!!!!! The speaker talked about the lies our teenagers hear in Media, Music etc. She was a great speaker and she does a great job talking with kids and parents alike. She made a comment about her "apparel", so I went to her table to check it out but I saw none, so I asked about it....I was given a "funny" look and told they were under the table. I was a little puzzled but they pulled out the t-shirt that you see below! (Just in case its hard to see, the i is topped by a cherry.) So without saying too much....what do ya' think?????? Would you let you daughters wear this or what would you think if you saw someone in your youth group wearing it?

Hope you all had a great weekend.....I thought of you often during this weekend! And believe me I am on FIRE for San Antonio even more now!! Can't wait!

Love to you all!
