FIREPROOF

If you haven't seen this movie you should! Take a box of Kleenex with you and plan to be blessed. I really hope they keep making these movies. Just amazing. The acting is not gonna win any oscars but the storyline was amazing.

I know I need to update! John is moving right along. Had to buy new clothes this weekend b/c he had no pants or shirts he could wear. He's going to be a Dallas Cowboy Football player for Halloween - he looks really awesome! Alex is Dale Earnhart, Jr. They both look really good. This week will be quite busy. Soccer, Halloween festival, more soccer and more soccer.

Hope to have some pictures up for you to see as well.

15 years...

Went to my 15 year high school reunion this weekend. Started with the homecoming football game Friday night. Of course there were people there I wanted to see and of course people I did not and then of course people who didn't make it. It's such an interesting thing to reflect on high school. Not exactly the best time of our lives in regards to the awkwardness of those years. However, I will say you do discover that you have far more in common with people as humans than you realize. DW Daniel high school however has so many socio-economical divisions... it's just ridiculous what you go through there. At any rate I saw this quote on a classmates Facebook page and I think it sort of sums up my feelings on it though.

"Some people have no use for the past, preferring to live totally in the here and now. But the present wouldn’t be nearly as colorful, interesting or meaningful were it not infused with some memories of an earlier time."

And how true that statement is b/c high school help to shape and form me in to the person I am today. I developed a strong spiritual bond with the Lord. Met my husband and fell in love... why would I ever want to trade any of that time? I think it was a good time of reflection and it does make my present all the more meaningful.

It also left me feeling kind of old... =)
