Bought a new toy…

So I was able to pick up a new toy this last week. I bought a new lens for the camera and got to play with it a little. So here are a couple of pics from this weekend. I’ll be posting more soon…

I just had to…

I just had to post this video after watching it over at Rick Smith’s Blog & I think you’ll understand why after seeing it.

I’ve placed the transcript below which is also available here on the original post from John Piper at the Desiring God Blog.

It’s a magnificent thing: The only newly-originating life in the universe that comes in the image of God is Man. The only newly-originating life in the universe that lasts forever is Man.

This is an awesome thing.

And, as everyone knows, that reverence is not shared by our new President, over whom we have rejoiced.

He is trapped and blind in a culture of deceit. On the 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, he released this statement,

We are reminded that this decision not only protects women’s health and reproductive freedom, but stands for a broader principle: that government should not intrude on our most private family matters.

To which I say:

* No, Mr. President, you are not protecting women; you are authorizing the destruction of 500,000 little women every year.
* No, Mr. President, you are not protecting reproductive freedom; you are authorizing the destruction of freedom for one million little human beings every year.
* No, Mr. President, killing our children is killing our children no matter how many times you call it a private family matter. You may say it is a private family matter over and over and over, and still they are dead. And we killed them. And you, would have it remain legal.

Mr. President, some of us wept for joy at your inauguration. And we pledge that we will pray for you.

We have hope in our sovereign God.

(From the sermon: “The Baby in My Womb Leaped for Joy.”)

Picked it up & dusted it off…

The camera that is, and thought I’d post a few pics with some updates.

For some reason Elisha really likes to strike a pose flexing but if you talk about just how large those “Muscles” are he gets rather upset and grunts loudly! It’s scary just how much of myself I’m seeing in this little guy it’s scary and amazing all at the same time.

I think helping Coach little league might be one of the greatest decisions I’ve ever made in my life. I absolutely love the fact that I’m getting to spend more time with Tre. (playing 3rd base in this pic) It’s had it’s moments that we’ll leave alone for now, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Tre’s turning into a pretty good ball player and definitely makes the game more interesting.

I took this pic on Saturday which turned out to be one of the funnest days I think I’ve ever shared with my wife or anyone for that matter. Man I love this lady!
