New Bible Study

We have started a new bible study on Wednesday nights called When wallflowers dance. I am not usually a fan of video teaching but so far, this has been pretty good. The main purpose so far is becoming more spiritually mature, going from where you are now, to a closer, walking, living, daily relationship with Him. I made the title a link, so you can read about it.

Last week, she talked about 4 ways to begin this journey. The ways were pretty good in my opinion, so I thought I would share them with you....
1) Choose God more than ANYTHING.
2)Stop the chaos in your life, so God can work in your life.
3)Commit to the community of believers.
4)Choose to restore order to your house and to your physical body.

I can elaborate more on each one if you would like me to, but just don't have the time right now. This really hit home to me, and I thought it was too good not to share!

Special Impact

You may remember about 8 months ago, Matthew's uncle Kip went home to be with the Lord. You can read about him here. He was for lack of better words....AMAZING. Earlier I wrote about the impact he had on my life while he was still on this earth, but the other night, I was reading through some of my old messages and found so many from him. He always had a way of making me feel extremely special and important. After re-reading all of his messages to me, I was over come once again with the great joy he always brought to me. I wanted to share some of the very special things he used to say to me during our conversations. I have picked out some of my favorites:

"make a memory, Katie girl"
"I learned a new word today....FASHOO"
"I stick with the coach, that's you"
"Coach, you are the bomb!"
"Great Coaching tonight"
"That is beautiful"
"I love you 3 Skinners"
"I love you Katie!!"
"you know what Katie? Maffew's family loves you!"
"I remember that you were a beautiful bride"
"Your eyes sparkle when you smile"
"Happy Birthday sweet one"
"Heck Yeah!! Every "new thing" is exciting!!"
"I love my kids too, it never changes."

I understand that you would have to have been reading the entire conversations to get some of this, but you can see how special he always made me feel. Even now as I am reading them again. He just had a way of always encouraging me and he definitely had a special impact on my life.

My eyes are welling up now,  I miss you uncle Kip!

Happy Birthday to my Baby!

Winnsboro Tournament

Our team played in the Winnsboro Hoopfest tournament this weekend. We went 4-1 only losing to Bullard. We beat 3A Sulpher Springs, 5A John Tyler, 4A Lancaster, and 3A Sanger. We are a 1A school, so we did pretty good. My parent's house is only about 15 miles from Winnsboro so between games, we went to their house and they graciously fed us and let us rest and relax. We all had a great time. Thanks mom and dad for offering your home to us.

My mom made the cut-outs for the girls to take pictures with....they were cute and we all had fun with them!
