Pastor's Wife...Very Important People

I hit me as I was looking over my blog that I totally left Sister Mowery and Sister Johnson out. And so I wanted to add that they are very much appreciated also. If it were not for them and their support their husbands may not be able to handle all the responsibilities that they have to. Pastor Johnson has mentioned before that Jody is his biggest cheer leader. If I know Sister Mowery her husband can say the same thing about her. These are two ladies who do many things that many of us may never know about because they carry the title of Pastor's Wife. But you never hear them complain. Thank you Sister Mowery and Sister Johnson for everything you do.

Pastor Appreciation

How do you even begin to tell your pastor and assistant pastor how much you appreciate them and what they do? I really have no clue. I have been planning for a while to have them over for dinner some time and haven't got around to it for months. So this week I decided that there would be no better time then this month. (Considering it is pastor appreciation month.) We had a great time last night and I am so blessed to of had them in my home. There really isn't any words to express the gratitude you feel for two of the most influential men in our children's lives. I can not tell you how wonderful it is to have a pastor and assistant pastor who will stand up for what they believe and not change with every turn of the wind. When I think of all the responsibility these two men carry it gets a little overwhelming. I'm sure at times they feel like they have the weight of the world on their shoulders.
Sometime this month as well as through out the year please be sure to let your pastor know how much you appreciate them and what they are doing.

Fun with Friends

I am extremely late getting this on my blog. We had a lot of fun last weekend at Dan and Rhonda's house. The kids always enjoy riding their horses. And of course the fellowship with friends is always nice. As you can tell this is the kind of place my kids love to be. Isabelle really loves Kim and the horses so where they're at she is happy.
Thank you Dan and Rhonda for sharing your friendship and your horses again. We really have a good time when we come out there. PS...Rhonda so sorry I didn't get any pictures of you to put on here. I'm sure that really disappoints you!!!

It's a snake!!!

Okay, I'm out on the playground with children from Kindergarten to third grade and all of a sudden I hear the girls let out a loud screeching scream I have never heard coming from so many girls all at one time. I look up to see a group of children swarming in to see something. At the same time I hear it's a snake, it's a real snake, it's a live snake, you get the point. So I am picturing this huge snake on the school playground. I get to the children and have them all back up and there lies the snake and all one foot of him. He is about a foot long and as thin as a pencil. This looks more like a worm than a snake. But I have to admit, I had the kids run in to get a different teacher to take care of the snake. I know this shows what a wimp I am but I don't care how big or little the crazy thing is I am not picking up a snake. So Miss Angie comes to save the day but before she can pick it up little Connor Davis picks up the snake and takes it to the field to get rid of it. Now I really felt like a wimp. This was quite exciting to a group of young children. Not so exciting for a scaredy cat like me.
