Look who came to visit......

You guessed it....Uncle Greg. He flew in from San Diego on October 15 and Yaya and I went to pick him up at the airport and then off to dinner. It was soo good to see him and I know that Yaya was excited too.

On Friday evening we went and picked up Yaya and off to the high school football we went. Kahli twirled her fire baton and entertained us all. We ate lots of boiled peanuts and Uncle Greg, Yaya and Kahli were even on TV that evening.


On Saturday I drove Uncle Greg to Columbia to meet his parents so he could spend the week with them.

The following Friday I picked up Yaya and her and I drove to Columbia to pick up Uncle Greg. This was a nice wet and rainy October day. We still had lots of laughs and a good ride. We took Yaya home and Greg, Kahli and I went to Pancho's for dinner and wrapped up the evening at the local Dollar Store trying on silly hats.


We truly enjoyed our visit with Uncle Greg from our west coast family. In November the other part of the family are coming for a couple of days.....The Husters....It will be so awesome to be able to spend Michelle's birthday with her this year.

GOLF TOURNAMENT for MR.T.

Well the golf tournament for Mr. T. was quite a success. All in all we raised $20649.98 for the PanCan Action Network for Pancreatic Cancer Research. The PanCan Network stated that this was the biggest single check that they had ever received. They might even send a representative to pick up the check from Blue Ridge!!!(How awesome would that be?) So, who said that 7 women who know nothing about golf could not plan a successful golf tournament?

Everyone had a great day, including Mike. The weather was awesome. The turn-out was great and the golfers had an BIG time. Everything went incredibly smooth. When we presented the check to Mr. T. he was absolutely speechless (something I never have seen). It was just

On Monday morning the committee starting getting emails about when our next tournament would be.

I want to post pictures but I am having trouble with this so they will follow.

Thank you to all to participated in this event.

On Saturday he will go before the Presbytery and preach a sermon and then an open floor of questions for 10 minutes.

We love you JIMMY and are very proud of all of your hard work and the way that you are working each and every day to further GOD'S kingdom.

COURTNEY and ANNIE.....my new friends

It's been a long time.....

So much has happened since I last blogged and to be truthful with you, I do not know where to start.

Okay so I am older, I did have a birthday. I had a wonderful birthday party in California.

I went to California over Labor weekend and the following week becasue Michelle, my sister and bestest friend, has been very ill.

Had a GREAT service at church this evening about the LORD setting us FREE! We had communion and to honest with you, it was one of the most touching communions I have ever taken. The true meaning of "AMAZING GRACE" is resounding in my heart as I type.

So much more to tell and I will but right now I am still suffering from a cold that I brought home from California and I need to rest.

Just in case you forgot.....

GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!!

Yesterday was Sunday and I had my day planned out to go to early church with Kahli and then do some work in my guest room. (I am trying to fix it up prior to having West Coast family visiting this fall) Anyway, we left the house around 8:00 because we needed to be early and then we met my friends Jessica and her husband there and sat with them.

The service started and the music was good. Then Perry (the preacher) said that he was not going to speak this morning, we were going to watch a video of another man giving the message, I have to admit I was a little disappointed. I really enjoy Perry's messages. Well after the video there was not a dry eye in the congregation and then people, broken people, starting getting up and giving their hearts to the LORD one right after another. It was AMAZING to see this happening after such a powerful message. ( Just to think that I was disappointed)

Well after that I leaned over the Kahli and said WE are coming to the 6:00 service and we are not coming alone. She said who are we going to bring? My response.....as many people as we can.

We came back to the 6:00 service with others in tow and wow another incredible service and more broken people coming to CHRIST!!!!!

So you see, when we have plans God just laughs at us, because whatever HE has planned for us is always more important! If my guest room does not get finished before family comes they will understand and be happy to sleep on the couch if necessary if it means that people are coming to CHRIST!!!

What an incredible Sunday and after all the emotion I went through during the day I slept really well last night.

Thank you LORD for the CROSS and thank you for loving us through our storms!

YOU are amazing!!!!!
