Peru and back

I just got back from Peru. I went on my first mission trip to minister to orphans by sharing the God's truth an placing brand new shoes on their feet. I was part of a team that consisted of about thirty some odd people, 12 from my church and the rest from various other parts of the country. I developed some new friendships I hope will last a lifetime and shared in an experience I will never forget. I can honestly say it ranked up there with my wedding day and the birth of my boys. Words cannot describe the emotional roller coaster of a week I had. The blessings we dealt out to the kids for God do not compare to the blessings we received ten fold by being there. I have been back for two weeks and I think about our team and those kids everyday. Will these memories too soon fade ? I hope not.

Seven hours in a car....


We recently took our first trip to Shreveport to see Pawpaw and Mamoo. We went down to the boardwalk and road the huge carousel and played games at a little arcade. The boys had a blast and couldn't wait to go back.
