Wow I'm Tired!

This week, this month, OK, this whole year has been exhausting. Just when it seems we are about to get a break, something else pops onto the calendar.

Not to say that any of these things have been bad, on the contrary, they've all been very good. But I am ready for a few days of R & R.

I responded to my first major fire this past week. A 10-70 structure fire. A trailer was fully engulfed when we arrived on scene. It was a total loss. Please pray for Cassandra as she is trying to piece her life back together after this terrible event.

Melissa and I know what it is to loose all the "stuff" you have (Hurricane Katrina). However, we also know what it is for God to restore even more than you had before and take care of you every step of the way. Pray that Cassandra will see God's hand in this.

We were toned out (a term firefighters use when the alarm goes out because it is a fast high pitched tone) about 2:20 pm on Wednesday and returned to the station about 6:15 pm. Yes, it took a while, and yes, it was on a Wednesday afternoon which is probably my busiest day of the week.

Things at Ray City First Baptist are going great. Once again, busy, but great. We are beginning to get the teams in place that will start making some preliminary plans for our rec facilities on the new property. In fact, we have a big conference in Jonesboro (Georgia that is, NOT Louisiana, ha!) at the end of this month on rec facilities and growth. Also at the end of the month we will launch our new youth service- xp3 and xp3 Live!

The girls are all doing fine. We are now finally over everyone being sick. Chloe had a check-up last week and is looking great and the girls go on St. Patty's Day for there 9 month check-up. Yes, they are almost that old already!

Kaitlyn has started pulling up and crawling all over the place. Kennedy will crawl a little bit, but she's more the talker. They have both said dada, mama, and a whole bunch of other stuff that I'm sure makes sense to them.

Where are the pictures I hear you screaming at me!? :) Unfortunately, our digital camera stopped working shortly before we left to come to Georgia. However, I am hoping to purchase one in the next couple of days. When we do- pics & videos are coming rapidly!

Well, I better run. Melissa just sent a txt msg to start some chicken nuggets for lunch. She just picked up Chloe from school and she is ready to eat!

Like I said, it doesn't stop!
