Not so Good Post

As most of you know my dad passed away in December. Today would have been his 70th birthday. So happy birthday dad and I will see you later. Thats what I told him in his last days.(I will see you later).

Illness has take its toll on the family. Shane is in Kansas with a very bad respitatory infection. He has missed the conference tournament and fallen behind in class work. I hope he his better soon.

I have had an infection for the last two weeks that wont go away. Having a 102 temp. all the time(seems like it) sucks. I cannot shake this and with no insurance now it makes it tough for treatment. Anyway this is something I have to deal with a couple times a year so I make it.

Eric says worship will be very good this Sunday.

I know it was a down post, but hey I still have Christ that gets me thru the day.

Monthly Wrap Up

Its been a month since I posted. This time of year is busy. I finished up my basketball season. We won 3 games, which is better than last year. We lost in semi-finals of county. The kids improved and we had fun. I think more important, while having growth group at church, I looked in gym during jr. high youth group, 12 of 14 players on my team are attending. That makes me feel good.

Got back at 4am Sunday morning after driving straight through from Moberly, Mo. I dont recommend it that late. We where in Moberly to watch Shane play basketball. This is the closest he gets to Indiana to play. The trip was worth the time, money, and driving. His coach let him spend Friday evening and Saturday morning with us. We had a great time. Then was game time. The played the 8th ranked Central Christian College of the Bible. Barclay won 100-94.

We then decided to drive home. Long trip but made worthwhile by a great worship service and message by our great worship team and pastors.
