Uncle Ronnie
I found myself yesterday thinking about him, my Uncle Ronnie. He was what we would refer to as a “gentle giant”. Ronnie was every bit 6′ 4″ tall, born and raised in Amarillo, TX, and as you can imagine had quite the accent. He was the kindest, gentlest man I think I’ve ever known. Of…

Went Fishin’
Yesterday was a good day. I got up a little later than normal and loaded up my fishing gear. I was on a mission… My plan, was to sit beside the water while overseeing a fishing line 🙂 The weather was incredible, the beach was way less crowded and the water was warm. I had…

Gone Fishin’
I’m home after ten days away for our annual conference. Ya, I have to admit, I’m a bit pooped 🙂 But, it’s in a very good way. It was an amazing week and I’m so humbled by everyone who came by to say thank you for a wonderful week. I’m humbled by those who hugged…

Never Forget
As I board a plane to head home today I’m somber. Twenty-one years ago today, thousands of Americans just like me did the same thing. They boarded a plane on business, headed home from a trip, or were excited to be heading on vacation with family. They were just like you and me that fateful…

The Hug
Yesterday we kicked off our annual conference. It’s been a year-long planning process and it came together yesterday with a ton of energy, excitement, and just pure joy! One of the favorite parts of this time for me is the interaction with people. The support is amazing and to see eyes light up when attendees…

The Bond
Yesterday as we worked our way through the final setup of our annual conference I watched our attendees start to filter into the hotel. The hugs, and the shouts of joy as they saw each other, well that was pretty ongoing throughout the day. It always amazes me the bond that has formed with these…

Friend, Family, Father
A few weeks ago I shared a story about a group of friends in FL who helped me decorate an area of our home. It’s been great fun getting to know these new friends. We’ve shared stories and learned so much about each other, and we’ve built a strong friendship in a very short time.…

The Simple Things
You all know that I love sunrises and sunsets. Um, this little blog is based on them. For as long as I can remember I’ve been taking pictures of them. I’m not a photographer by any means… but occasionally I can catch a sky that will take your breath away. Over the years friends have…

An Elbow, Just What I Needed
Yesterday I made the trek out to Scottsdale for our annual conference. I sat down early in the morning, like at 3:00am, to spend a little time with Father before I left. I asked a simple request in that morning prayer, “Father please keep me safe as I travel, and if you could make it…

Ironing
The favorite chore of all time…said no one ever. Actually, I do have a few friends that just love ironing, absolutely love it. Well, me, um not so much. Like most, I defer to the “wrinkle-free” clothing these days, especially down here in SW FL where things tend to be a little more casual. Now,…
