Jumping out of a perfectly good plane!
My friend Gregg recently turned 40, I recently turned 43. So he suggested that we jump out of an airplane to celebrate. It was like drinking from a fire hydrant. So many sensations coming at you all at once. It was really amazing. I am definetly going back. Wanna come with me?

Louie Giglio - Laminin
I saw this video a few weeks ago and was blown away. How could anyone deny that we were designed by God? The intricacies of the human body are far beyond our mortal comprehension.

The history of Amazing Grace
This is very inspiring. Wintley Phipps has a voice unlike any other. His telling the of story behind the hymn "Amazing Grace" is only enhanced by his incredible voice as he sings.

Spring in Spring
One of the cool things about living in South Texas is that Spring comes about a month earlier than it does in Oklahoma. In Oklahoma the state tree, the Redbud, doesn't begin to bloom until mid-April. Here, it is already showing its beautiful foliage. I love to see it up against the bareness of the trees that still lie dormant. Its beautiful red blooms stand out like a beacon signaling the beginning of the annual spring show of color. Its color is an unmistakable sign of warmer weather and the end of the grayness left behind from the chilliness of winter.
The azaleas are nearly at their peak and are absolutely without compare. There are as many different hues as there are yards in which they grow.
Here are a few pics of some the spring blooms in and around my yard.
Until then,

Football Season '07
I know it's been eons since I've posted, so I thought I'd share some videos that have been waiting in the wings for...well, some time now. I have 3 that I put together and haven't uploaded yet, so over the next week or so I'll try and get them posted.
Until then,
Buck

Easter Pics
Here are some pictures from Easter Sunday. The sun finally came out half way through the morning but the temperature hovered in the mid 50's. I don't ever remember an Easter like this. I saw some pictures from people that made an Easter Snowman.
Today (Tuesday) the temperatures were in the mid 80's! Go figure.

Easter Eve
We colored our eggs, fingernails and toenails. We took a trip to the nail salon and all got pedicures and manicures for Easter Sunday. We might be wearing coats and sweaters but we will look great doing it. I don't ever remember and Easter that it rained. I remember when it was cool and cloudy but the forecast for Easter Sunday is pretty dismal.
I included a picture of one of our Azaleas to show how big and vibrant they are when they bloom. They have lost their blooms now and are just green and bushy. Everything has turned green and the yard is back to its thick green carpet. I'll post some more pics with everyone in the new Easter frocks.

Starlettes Pom
Well Starlette season is officially over. We had a great year and learned a lot. We finished the season with a National Competition in San Antonio. We fared pretty well. We got third in three categories and fourth in the other. We were up against a lot of teams. Teams literally came from all over the nation. Utah, Kentucky, Missouri & of course Texas. This video is their Pom routine from their Showcase earlier in the year.

The Pink Polly-Pockets
These are some pictures of Riley's basketball team at church. Each team gets the choose their own name and we chose to be "The Pink Polly-Pockets". Not the Lady Lion's, or the Cowgirls, but "The Pink Polly-Pockets". So far we haven't won a game but we've had a lots of fun, and looked really cute, in doing so.
Until then,

Girls Basketball
Riley is playing of the girls basketball team at the church. Her teammates decided to call themselves "The Pink Polly-Pockets". There is only enough girls to make up 2 teams so each week we play the same team. It still makes for a lot of fun.
Until then,

Snow Tubing
Over the holidays we went home and spent some time with our family. We had the opportunity to go dowtown and ride the Snow Tubes in Bricktown. It was a blast! We all had such a great time together. We also went to the movies together and just had the chance to catch up in person. We had alot of fun together and I'm grateful that I have such a great family.
Until then,

Pageant Pictures
Since August of this year we have been working toward December 1, 2 & 3. The first weekend in December is always "Pageant" at our house.
This year our choir and orchestra pulled out all the stops and absolutely outdid themselves. I was, and am, so proud to be associated with these incredible people. The Lord truly blessed our efforts and His Spirit was so powerfully evident.
These pictures give a good overview of our efforts. Thanks to my good friend Lori Cooper for taking the beautiful photos.
Until then,

Christmas 2006
Here are some pics of this year's Christmas decorations. We put them up Thanksgiving weekend, but thanks to Pageant we have been a little preoccupied. Now that Pageant is over we can enjoy them even more. Each year we get a few new things to add to the ones we have had for many years.
Our new piece this year is "Andrews Art Supplies". Andrews is MJ's maiden name and she and her mother enjoyed painting and crafting, so this one is very special.
I hope to post some Pageant pictures soon.
Until then,
Buck <><
