Who would have ever thought the significance of a single day on American culture and in American history? On a day like today, you can't help but be humbled by the amazing nature of humans and all they are capable of. I sit here tonight in the comfort of my home truly amazed at the blessings God has provided to this country we live in.

God's Love

The very fact that a holy, eternal, all-knowing, all-powerful, merciful, fair, and just God loves you and me is nothing short of astonishing.
- Francis Chan, Crazy Love

How amazing is that thought? The God of the Universe, in all His glory, loves each and every one of us. I've been reading Francis Chan's Book Crazy Love. It is a book about God's love and has really made me think. God, who has our lives pinned down, takes care of each and every one of us. We each have a purpose and have certain gifts that come from Him. What an amazing thought. I, an obviously imperfect character in this play called Life, has a God that cares enough to want me in His life. Yes, it is an interesting and somewhat backwards thought. God wants us to want Him in our lives, but at the same time, He wants us to be with Him in His kingdom. Think about it. It is quite an interesting situation to find yourself in.

Back Home

Back home after a great weekend in Lubbock. I love my little nephew and am so glad Zach and Christy let me hang out with the three of them all weekend. It was also nice to see old friends from Levelland over the weekend. Christy's family is just as amazing as always too. God has blessed me with some truly amazing people in my life.

Payce's Little Laugh

So Payce seems to do this little laugh when he sleeps...Hilarious. Makes you wonder what's going through his mind. Probably his goofy daddy. Haha.

Lubbock / Levelland This Weekend...Weird.

Back to Lubbock this weekend. I can't wait to see Zach, Christy, and little man Payce. I love these guys. Plus, a wedding in Levelland. It's probably been 5 years since I've been to Levelland. Should be fun.

River Fun - Cuatro de Julio

Floated the river for the Fourth. New friends, river, fun times...

Taylor Boys

Hook Em Already?

Payce, Troy, and Zach
