Our Son Has Officially Graduated!

I would just like to say how proud I am of my son for his accomplishments. He finished his last exam in August and he turned seventeen on Sept 3rd. Now that school is done, there are a lot of decisions to be made. I know that God is working in his life and that He will be there to help him make the right decisions. The prayer of my heart is that he will continue to put God first and that he will yield to His will.
Josh, Thanks for being such a blessing to our family! We love you!

Josh's Surprise Grad Party!

So Josh has completed high school now and we had a surprise party for him. Matt was such a great help in whisking Josh away for a few hours before the party so we could get last minute things ready. The turnout was good and the fellowship was great! Crystal baked his favorite treat, WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE and we watched a slideshow of his growing up years! Thank you to all you who helped in making it a success, I know that he will always remember it!

Tulsa

PEAK was great again this year! Is it possible that it gets better and better? God is so amazing. It's just so beautiful to see our young people touch God! I'm grateful that I was able to go with my kids but hope that Willie will be able to go with us next year! God Bless!!!!!

Broken Hand :(

Well, Crystal decided to break her hand last Sunday. Unfortunately, it happened to be exactly one week before her piano recital. Her teacher knew how hard she had worked on her piece and decided that she would play Crystal's left hand for her. Here's a little clip......
She also got her braces off on Monday and is so happy to finally see her teeth again!!!

A Burdened Heart

God, hear me today I pray. Lead me to the hungry souls that are searching for you. Let me be an instrument in your hands. Open doors that no man can shut! IN JESUS NAME!

Mothers Day 2010

First I want to say how privileged I feel to be the mom of two of the most wonderful kids in the world. I am overwhelmed sometimes with the great responsibility God has given us to raise these two awesome people to become what he wants them to be. He has been so good to us! The best Mothers Day gift I could ever get is to see my children loving God and living for Him with all they've got. I can't explain how much Willie and I appreciate all they do to help us with the work here in Airdrie, as I know it's not always easy.
This Mothers Day, I will not be able to be with my mom. I have been thinking about the wonderful friendship that we've shared over the years and really want to make sure that I have that kind of relationship with my kids. No matter how far away they may be from me, I want to always be their friend. Thanks Mom for being a true friend and thank you Josh and Crystal for your friendship. I love you all so very much :-) Natalie
