Thank God for Air Conditioning!!!!

Daddy getting some pretty awesome snuggle time!!!!

After almost a week with no A/C, we FINALLY have a new unit installed! God blessed considerably during the time with no air. Most of the days were unseasonably cool, with only the last day or so getting pretty rough.

Poor Samuel was getting a pretty bad heat rash. We let him go with only a diaper for most of that time. All of us were getting pretty tired of it before it was over. My muscle pain and weakness were pretty bad, I still don't hold up to heat very well. Kind of sends me down the tubes. But, by the grace of God we made it just fine! Thank you for your prayers on that.

I told my Dad the other night that if any body DESERVED to go to heaven on merit alone, it would have to be the guy that invented air conditioning! I'm kidding of course, but almost not kidding! :-)

We continue to move forward with the house buying process. Lots of I's to dot, and T's to cross. We still have a few hoops to jump through. Between starting a new job and having our house in Denton still, even having great credit still leaves a few hurdles for us. Just keep us in your prayers till we have the keys. We don't doubt we'll get the house, we just have to work with the lender closely to meet all of the requirements.

Praise report from our friends, Scott and Alicia Stevens. If you haven't heard, their 17 year old son Adam was hospitalized last week. He was an extremely sick young man. It took the doctors a few days to figure it out, but the final result was Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Yep, another tick borne illness! He finally made it home and is continuing to improve. I can vouch for the fact that those little ticks can pack quite a wallop! Praise the Lord for answered prayers. Hope he continues to improve!

Thanks to some of our folks in Texarkana for the work they are putting in trying to narrow down a meeting place for the new church. With hard workers like that, it sure makes everything still needing to be done seem a lot easier to pull off. Hopefully, we will have something nailed down real soon.

Keeping this short today. Love you all. Here are some recent pictures:

Bubba, you make a really good pillow! You just gotta read this book!

Can we PLEASE get the A/C fixed???
This is all the energy I can muster!!!

You don't really think that barrier will stop me, do ya?

Man Daddy! That is one hairy leg! :-)

I'M NOT SLEEPY!

...really, I'm not sleepy....

....zzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

OK Bubba! This town ain't big enough for the both of us!!
(cue western gunfighting music!)
Looks like the gunfight at the no A/C corral!
