Today marks the unofficial end of summer…  My kids pick up their class schedules today.  Strange thing is, both of them are in HIGH SCHOOL!   Sonja just walked out the door with our daughter, Abby, to go to the HIGH SCHOOL for  sophomore orientation.  New school (Auburn has 10th -12th at the High School, [...]

Today I saw Tim Steven’s post about an Office Max advertisement and I just about fell out of my chair.  So I had to offer up a little link love so you can see it too.  Being an old advertising guy, I love the creativity it shows… I’m not sure I would want to carry [...]

I finally did it… I took the plunge… I ordered it and it should be here in a week… or up to 20 business days Apple says…Hope it’s sooner rather than later!  

For some reason I’m wiped out today.  came home from church and watched the race… NASCAR threw the caution every 12 laps for tires.  I say let em race.  Now I’m up getting ready for a great week next week. Attendance was up… Offering was down.  Begs the question… which would you rather have?  attendance [...]

This morning, I started training for this 15k that I got roped into running… I have never run a 5k… what the heck am I thinking.  But 7:30 came and Keith Thompson showed up and we ran at 3.1 mile loop.  (actually we walked probably a half mile, but it’s a good start).  Funny thing [...]

My wife went to the doctor yesterday because she’s been having some pain in her feet.  She came out with patches, prescriptions and a big boot.  She had what they call planter faciatis.  She’s on the road to recovery but she had a bad experience with the doctor.  He was a  low talker and she [...]

I love baseball.  It’s my favorite sport.  I love watching it and most of all, I love hearing the stories of the players.  It’s the all star break and the All Star game is tonight… I’ll be watching it with my son and some friends.  Last night they had the Home Run Derby… that’s one [...]

I am loving this series we’re in called “Wake Up”.  Yesterday I really believe God shook some people up and really caused them to begin to live with a sense of urgency!  It was an awesome day.  The band was ON yesterday!  I’m so proud that we have an amazing worship band…Every week they deliver [...]
