FRIDAY FIVE

Here are the five things spinning in my head right now.....

1. Praying for Ridge Church - It looks like we may finally have a facility of our very own!! This means the move from Sunday nights to Sunday mornings..... this means the possibilities are endless - for reaching more, giving more and serving more.... this also means the staff at Ridge will need fervent prayer over the next few weeks. Planning and raising support to up fit the new building will be an enormous task! I can't wait to see this story unfold..... I am so grateful that the Lord has allowed Rusty and I to be a part of this incredible adventure!

2. I am constantly amazed at how the Lord provides for us..... We are so humbled by the generosity of others.... We pray daily that the Lord will allow us to bless others the way we have been blessed!

3. Paige and Rusty are both traveling today. Rusty to Ft. Lauderdale and Paige to Myrtle Beach, SC (6th grade field trip!). I know, I know, I worry way too much, but my heart is heavy. I only feel whole when our family is together..... (I know, I know - I have ISSUES!)

4. My kids are amazing! How three kids can all come from the same set of parents and yet be so completely different is beyond my comprehension.... The Lord has given them such unique and endearing personalities, and I get such a kick out of spending time with them.

5. Spring is here!! I realized this morning that our family has made it through our first set of seasons. We moved in June (Summer) and realized it wasn't much different than Florida (still hot as heck!). Fell in love with Fall in the Carolinas, saw our first snow in Winter and now I haven't quite decided which is more beautiful, the flowers of Spring or the colors in Fall??? Here are two pics from the trees in front of our house. They are gorgeous!
