My Life Recently

Tuesday - I went over to the Myers house to do school while my parents went to the movies with Lauren, my Grandma Phylis, and Mrs JoAnn. (I didn't go because I had a lot of school to do.) I ended up spending the night that at their house.

Wednesday - Church was canceled that night and COACH classes were the next morning, so Luke and I worked it out that he spent the night at our house. They ended up canceling COACH! I love COACH, but it's nice to have a break.

Thursday - Luke and I just hung out. It was a lot of fun!


Friday - Morning I went with my dad to load some of his tools at a rent house that my Great Uncle Cecile and Great Uncle Russel owns. It was about 10:00 a.m. when I got home. Then, I did some school until Basketball practice. After practice Will Wells came over to our house and spent the night Friday - Sunday. (His parents are out of town.)

Saturday - At around 9:00 a.m. we went to Tim Nelson's house, a blind man in our church, to help him move. He is moving close to Madill, Oklahoma closer to his mom. Then we went home and did a lot of nothing.

Today - Mr. Compton preached. It was incredible! If you weren't there and if you want to listen to it just go to westernhillschurch.com, highlight over media, and go to audio sermons. You will be truly blessed. If you are reading this today (Sunday) it will not be on the website until tomorrow afternoon or night.
Now we are preparing to watch the Super Bowl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Cardinals!!!!!!

Well, have a fantastic day!!!

Many blessings!!!

Why we weren't at church today

If you were wondering why my dad, Jon, and I weren't at church today, it's because we all have bad head aches, tired, and I have a sore throat.

So that is why we weren't at church today.


Many blessings!

The past week my mom has been working on sorting pictures for Jonathan's album. She has a crop today and spending the night. She organized the pictures on the computer and then sent them in to be printed in the order she had them on the computer. When they picked them up, the were all mixed up. It was a disaster! :( Now she is at the crop working to organize them and start his album. She has been working so hard.

Today I had basketball practice. My right calf muscle has been bothering me for the past couple weeks. This week I mentioned it to my parents, but at basketball practice it was unbearable. I had to sit down and skip out on this practice. It stunk! :(

Mr. and Mrs. Perkins went on a cruise this week and so we have Dylan today (Friday) - Sunday.

Rachael went to the crop with my mom, so Brandon and Elizabeth is spending the night at our house. (Rachael took Katherine with her.)

Many Blessings!!! :)

Yesterday me and many other men went to the Well's new house to move them in. The add-on is finished and looks great! My dad, and everyone who helped with this add-on, did amazing!!! Everything looks great!!!!!! So yesterday we were the movers. Everything went really well and looks great!!!

The pool is almost finished and will be ready to swim in before this summer... Lord willing. As far as I know, everyone is in the house and doing well.


Today we had a Graduation meeting at our house. They talked over some things, ate, and then went bowling. I know Jon had a great time and bowled a 135!


Pastor Wells spoke a great sermon today on "The Call". He was talking about having the call for ministry, being a pastor, ECT. I have been trying to find out if I have the call on my life or not. It's hard to tell if the "thoughts" you have are from God, or if they are thoughts that I am just having?. I am in the process of finding out how to tell.

Siiiiiiick :(

Well, today has been a little disappointing. I woke up at around 4:00 am vomiting. I didn't stop completely until about... now. About an hour ago I took a 2 hour nap. When I woke up I was feeling quite a bit better. I most likely vomited or had dry heaves about 20 times. It was soooo miserable. :( Now I am doing better, but still not up to par.

If you don't see me at church tonight... you know why.

Most Frightning Experince

Well today my mom went with my MawMaw to run a couple of errands. My dad was at work, Jon was at work, and Lauren was at an interview. So I was at my house alone. I was just starting on school when I heard the doorbell ring. It rang twice in a row, and a little later two more times. I went to the door and there was a black male about Brandon's size, bald at the door. I didn't answer it because I was home alone and I never have seen him. I didn't pay very close attention, but enough to describe him. I saw him leave and go toward our garage. I felt like I should shut the curtains, and lock all the doors. I didn't know why, but I just did it. Then I peak out our window with the curtain still shut and saw Jonathan's room door open. So I immediately called dad and while it was ringing I saw the guy come out Jon's room. I told my dad there was somebody in our back yard and he told me to call 911. While it was ringing I was heading back to my dad's room and got his gun, as he has thought me to do. I waited in the room and told the cops where I was, described the man, and waited on the phone. While I was on the phone I heard the back screen open. At this time I was pretty shaky. Then about 1 min later my dad was at the front door. He came from the church and was at my house in about a 1 1/2 min. That just tells you how fast he was going! :) I let him in the front door and they were looking all around the house to make sure he wasn't there. BTW, I locked all the doors. So the police arrived around the same time my dad did and was looking too. They couldn't find the guy so then they started asking me a couple of questions, such as, do you know what the man looked like, what he was wearing, ect. The cops said I did everything I needed to do, thanks to my dad, and gave me a little advice. When they left they saw a red car at the end of our street wrecked, empty, and out of gas. They checked it out, and it ended up being a stolen car that the man was probably driving. While they were looking at the car, we started putting the pieces together. We saw that the back door was wide open, I locked it before anybody was there. The guy kicked it in and must have heard me close my parents room door. I'm glad he did. So he was in our house and was mostly likely scared off.

So now everybody is gone and I am about to start back up on school. This happened at around 9:30, and now it is 11:56.

The Lord was so good to me because I don't think I could have done what I did without his peace and the thoughts he gave me. Praise the LORD!!!!!!!

My Schedule

Friday - We had a ball game in Ponca City. It was a long drive for a b-ball game, but it was a lot of fun. We arrived at around 1:30-2:00 and stayed at a hotel that night. The first game was a Junior High (JH) game that we lost by 1 point. :( Our team never gave up so to me it was a BIG win!!! The final score on that game was: 13 - 14. Yes, it was a very low scoring game. It's not that both teams were really bad, it's that both teams played great defence. We beat this team by 1 point in overtime last time we played them, but we had all of our starters. This game we were missing our biggest guy, Caleb Compton. So I hope we can play them again this year with all of our starters and see what happens.
The second game was a Varsity (V) game. We won by about 6. We had no problem beating this team in the past, but this game there was a little twist. We were missing all but one of our starters... Jonathan, so it was a closer game, but more exciting!

Saturday - We were at the hotel that we stayed at until Noon and then started back home. On our way home we stopped at one of my dad's aunt's house. Her house is on a farm were my dad was a big part of his childhood. We stopped there and said hello, and my dad showed us the farm where he worked! It was a lot of fun seeing a part of his childhood memories.
Then after that we went home.

Today - When we got home from church we cleaned the house and went to eat. After we were finished eating we went to my MawMaw's house because my aunt's (mom's older sister) car was leaking. So my dad, mom, and I went to check it out. On our way there Brandon called and said he sold his car and needed the title notarized. So my dad went to the church to meat him so he could notarize it. We stayed at my MawMaw's house while he is at the church.
When he gets back we are going to Brandon and Rachael's house to see them and the babies. Until then I am at my MawMaw's house posting on my blog.


So there has been my schedule the past couple of days.

Manny Blessings!

The Lord never ceases to amaze me!!!

The Lord never ceases to amaze me! Today my dad and mom went to Guthrie. They stooped to get gas and my dad set his iPhone on the top while he was filling up the car. He forgot about it and drove off. About 4 miles later he saw that he didn't have it and remembered what happened. He turned around as quickly as possible to look for it. He didn't find it at the gas station and just stopped and prayed. He got back on the rode and while he was driving he found it. It was face down on the rode with the sim card popped out and the cover demolished. He pulled off the rode and went to get it. He put the sim card back in and it is working fine!!! It was a little scratched on the top, but that was it.





The Lord never ceases to amaze me!

An amazing week!

This weekend was absolutely amazing!!! Yesterday (Friday) and today (Saturday) we have been skiing in the best weather ever!!! The lifts open at 9:00am and close at 4:00pm on the weekdays, and 8:30am - 4:00 on the weekends. We skied almost the full day on the first day, and half a day on the second. Luke was feeling good enough the first day to ski, but the second he stayed home. He was happy he could ski the first day though.

Thank you for your prayers. There were no injury's, the weather was great, and everything was incredible! We had a great time. We are leaving early tomorrow morning.

We'll see you soon!
