Birthday and GREAT NEWS

Guess what it is my Aunt Sue & Aunt Bertha's Birthdays. (Oh yeah MINE ALSO!) Crazy crazy - seems like I was just 43 yesterday - hehehe. It seems really freaky that I'm 44 - wow 44 that's not nearly as old as it used to be. Yesterday my brother-in-law Greg had his 46 so I don't feel so terribly old. Love you bubba!

Judgement House went well this past weekend even with Hurricane Wilma breathing down our necks. All Glory to God! I believe each night we have had 100 plus go thru but I know of at least 5 new souls added to the kingdom - so again Praise be to GOD!

Well I found out last week that by next Christmas I will have 2 new grandbabies not just one. No Brittney is NOT having twins - Nyki is also expecting! I'm so excited I can hardly contain my joy. 5 that's right 5 by the end of the Summer 2006.

Then after Shawn and Tasha get out of school we will add even more.............Shawn is doing great in Police Academy - a 4.0 average after 3 tests so KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SHAWN. I haven't heard much from Tasha other than she loves her job and is very busy with it, so since I haven't heard horror stories from School I assume all is going good. Have I mentioned how much I admire her for being able to juggle School, home, husband, and work without letting anything fall!

Randy and I were extremely busy with Judgement House last weekend and this weekend will be the last weekend of it so hopefully it will be great also. Please pray for us for strength and the softening of hearts to hear the message.

LOVE LANGUAGES

TJ and I are taking "5 Love Languages" again, we've taken the course twice and listened to the book on tape once. If you haven't read or taken the small group, do it! It's amazing how much you will discover about yourself. No I'm not getting paid by the author. There is a test to take, real easy you just pick one of 2 answers. Both TJ and I scored high on "quality time", it's my highest and her highest is "acts of service". The coolest part is we love spending time together, so it seems to be right. TJ is a doer, she loves to help others, that's the "acts of service" part. Not really my cup of tea, but since I know it's high for her, I try to do stuff for her. It's important to keep your mates love tank full. Try it, it might just make "physical touch" even better!!!

5 languages are (not in order) Gifts; Quality Time; Words of Affirmation; Physical Touch and Act of Service. You really should take the test you might be surprised. TJ thought one of her high ones were Gifts and it scored way low. (We have a book we would be glad to lend you if you would like to read all about it.)

Enough of that, I'm good, no major complaints, didn't even fall off of my bicycle last week.

It is Well It is Well with my SOUL

Randy is home - came in 2 days prior than I really expected him, which was AWESOME! He even got into town in time to go RIDING with RC. Brittney and I got some stuff for Trace's B-day party Tuesday night (Didn't have it over the weekend cause we didn't think Grandpa would be here).

Brittney may be further along that at first thought she goes to have a Sonogram on Monday 10/10 to find out exactly how far along she is. She goes to the cardiologist on Tuesday 10/11 for a Echo (not sure how but it is different than the EKG I kept calling it) to find out why she is having shortness of breath that leads to heart pumping fast etc........ But I have a peace where this is concerned so - again I'm still feeling Well with my soul.

Nyki and family are in their new house. Rylee is even sleeping in a toddler bed - what a big girl!

Shawn starts school tomorrow 10/4 and is working a new job so that he has time for school. I hope this time goes by fast and easy for him and Tasha - he will be going to school 40 hours a week and working 40 hours a week so........................... Sleep and family time may have to sacrifice a little.

Well I don't really have much to say - but thought I'd say what I did have to say before going home for the day.
