Awanas Year End


She did it. Finished her first year of Awanas.
She is so proud of herself.
I'm proud of her too. She did a great job.
Her little confidence has soared.
Well worth the weekly trips across town.
I loved how excited she was with her little trinkets.

Friends.




Friends.
College friends.
So many late nights studying goofing around.
Conversations about God.
Conversations about us.
Then: I liked them because they are fun.
Now: I like them because they are fun and I admire them.
I secretly want to be like each girl in a way.
They make me want to be a better friend.
Awesome weekend girls!

Two beautiful ladies.
A favorite kids game is always better with an English accent.



  

You probably don't know this woman
but if you met her you would wish to know her.
Her stories are hillarious and occasionally shocking
but not in a scandelous way.
She is honest, really honest
but not in a mean way.
Her strength of spirit is constant.
I am jealous that she wasn't my grandma growing up.
I am sad she won't live forever.
I am overjoyed to spend eternity with her heaven.

Emily is not the only one on a web page.

Click here  to see me and my antelope.

My hunting story starts with tracking the antelope
during a hail storm...
splitting a barb wire fence...
a huge hike across Two Creek Ranch...
and gutting my own animal.

I earned that hunt.

True story.

Bella!

I never thought I would have a black baby.  

Bella is 100% black
and
100% baby.

She is a love bug.
Codependent to the max.
Sweet as can be.

Calm is an understatment.
We drove for 8 hours with her sitting at my feet. 
No problems.
