NEXT EXIT TULSA? & FACE LIFTED

Well I live in Florida and vacation in Tulsa? What is wrong with me? I know! Well that said it has been fun, hot as hades but fun. Funny how it is ok to say hades but not hell? Anyway, I decided to give the old blog a face lift so let me know what you think? I am going to be in Tulsa this week so if you miss me, come see me! I will be at Starbucks most of the week so you can pay me a visit and pay for my Frap (J/K). Well hope all are well and blessed. See ya BMAC

GOING BANANAS?

If you are looking for a lock on evangelism this is it!!!!

George Clooney My Mentor!

Yes it is true, George has dropped out of the major motion picture industry and started to sell food for US Foodservice. Well OK, maybe not. This is actually Curt my mentor and he is really a nice guy. I was just amazed at how much he looked like George Clooney, what amazes me the most is that he has never heard that and does not see it himself? Crazy or just me? Let me know if I have lost it or what?

Admiration

It is funny how things bring people together, I was talking to a great guy last night that I really admire. When someone says the word "Character" I think of this individual. He has gone through a ton of trials in the past two years, some of which I have been part of, some I was just a spectator to. All the while he has grown and become a great man as a result. He has stepped up and is such an inspiration to me. I look at the controversy he has walked through, the loss and transition all the while keeping strong and true to himself and his beliefs. Until you walk a mile in a man's shoes you don't know, but watching it has amazed me. Well if you get a chance visit Scott's Blog you will be sure to enjoy it! He has blessed me and I am sure he will you too!

I ate some bugs, I ate some grass, I used my hand, to wipe my tears.

My middle son was singing this to me yesterday and it made me laugh! Well I know it has been awhile since I posted and I wanted to give a brief update as to what has been a great paradigm shift in our lives. First I started my new job and it has been a dramatic change from what I am use to. I have worked nights and weekend for the past sixteen years so being off has been awesome I can't believe I did it for as long as I did. It has had a major change to my relationship with the family and really has taught me to appreciate the time that much more. The week prior I got off work everyday by 2:00 PM and was off for four days leading up to this week. The people I work with are great and although I am training it seems like I am really going to enjoy this line of work. We finally got a new townhouse which we are moving into on the 14th of this month. It is really awesome cause not only is it bigger it has a garage and is three stories so we have a ton of storage and room! Then we are going on vacation to Tulsa from the 25th to the 1st of August which everyone is pumped about. Jared made the All Star team and has really excelled at baseball, he loves it and is pretty good at it to boot! Finally, Rachel started a new job with the leasing office in the community we live in so no more waking at quarter to four AM and no more standing on her feet all day. I think she is going to like it for now, but our goal is for her to stop working in the next year. So, I have to say God has really blessed us and we have come full circle. While things always come at a cost it is nice to reap some of what I believe our family has sewn for so long. Well I will try and keep up more as time permits and would love to hear from you as well!
Here are some pics for you all to enjoy!
