Our bowling adventure...

Last night was our youth night... and bowling it was!





As you can see, we had a totally awesome time! This picture I told them to look funny and to look like they had a good time. ( just kiddin ) I did tell them to make it a funny one though. We definately have a group of characters!!

We walked from my house to the bowling alley and back. It almost felt like a school trip. As we were walking, everyone was dancing, laughing, talking with each other and having a good time. I just kept looking at their faces. All I saw was great big smiles!!

It made me think not only about the verse for this blog, (1peter3:8 ) finally, all of you, be of one mind, being compassionate, sympathetic for one another and love as brothers. But it made me think about this song I always loved... "Lean on Me" Remember that one? Awesome!

Talks about letting our pride go, being there for someone in their time of need, being their friend and helping them carry on. We all need somebody to lean on...I had to add it to my play list, you can skip the songs and check it out.

That's the kind of love and compassion these kids showed tonight!!

I want to thank all the youth for your outstanding behavior!! Seeing God work in you, continues to also strengthen me. Love you all!

God bless,
Dan

Happy Fathers Day...

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't updated for a few days. It's been pretty busy with kids award assemblies and school graduation. I will be posting some of that tomorrow. Hope you check it out!

I wanted to remind everyone that tomorrow is Fathers Day. I hope and pray for all those still with fathers, that they will take the time to either visit, call, text or even e-mail their fathers to let them know just how special they are!

It's a time to put any hardship away and think about all the good times with your father and all the good things he may have done for you. The times he was there. All the laughs, all the crying, maybe even during your times of need.

I think back about my father and it makes me smile! I think about all those memorable moments and places we've went, the times together we shared and the serious and dumb things we talked about.

There are so many things I can look back on and talk about, but I just want to remind everyone how special fathers really are!

I have to say, I'm very blessed to have a father like mine! Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a daddy! I love you dad! Happy Fathers Day.

For anyones father that is not around for whatever reason, I am very, very sorry! I will be praying for God to give you strength, peace and comfort during this time that may be hard for you. We serve an awesome God! He will never leave you nor forsake you!

Happy Fathers Day... to all the Fathers out there!

God bless,
Dan

Dans Blog Has Been Hijacked!


Yep,

thats what happens when your wife knows your password because she's spent countless hours helping you design a blog header, setting up a hit counter and teaching you html coding.


Then she gets on and posts crazy things for all the world to read and makes you look like the husband of a nutcase...MMWWAAAAAaaaaa...*cough cough* *hack**fart*....ooops. sorry.


But really, I'm here to tell you Danny how very proud I am of you for starting this blog! You have such a big heart and an even larger love for God and I think it's awesome that you want to connect with people on this level......even if you are a big botarded goofball ;)

You are in fact....a huge dork. but you're my dork and I wouldnt have it any other way! I love you so much honey! you are my life!

Okay, so I will try not to do this again. No promises. I have almost no self control. None......and it's kinda fun too :)

Love you muchly,

Your wonderful, perfectly flawed, wife
