God has been gracious to us and has been with us through our journey of love and life. He has carried us through some of the most difficult times and has given us joy in the midst of sorrow. He has also been loving and given us abundant blessings. Most importantly, He has provided us with faith. May we share that faith with others.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
"God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame".

Dave's Birthday Surprise!

This year for Dave's birthday, the kids and I decided to surprise him with tickets to the last Purdue home basketball game of the season.  When Dave got home from work on Friday, we had him open his gift.  Inside were the tickets.  Then, we said, "Get dressed, we're leaving soon."  We hopped in the car and went down to West Lafayette.  We stayed in a hotel and the kids got to swim before bed.  The next morning, we enjoyed a breakfast, watched the players come down (apparently, they stayed in the same hotel), the kids swam again, and then we walked around campus.  The game was at 2pm against Ohio State.  Purdue blew them away. It was a fun game.  It was also Senior night, so we got to hear the graduating players speak.  When the game was over, we headed back home.  I think Dave had a great weekend.  It's a birthday he will not forget.
