Tiffany and I are expecting again! Our nice little surprise from the Lord will be here in early February. Out the window is where we get to toss the plans we had for the next few years, but that’s fine with us. We couldn’t be more excited having our world rocked. “In his heart a [...]

Sunday morning, Caleb was baptized with my sister’s daughter Abby Trent. Caleb and Abby are not only cousins but very close friends. The week before Easter, both chose to trust Christ as their savior. They each came to the decision to follow Christ while in different cities and in different ways. The day before Easter, [...]
