Had a wonderful time on the 4th of July with my family and some military friends of Bro. Jimmie's who live in Mesa, AZ about 5 min. from Adam and Jen.  We all, including Adam and Jen and kids, went to their house for a barbeque. It was real nice and John Ivy smoked some chicken and a boston rump. His wife Kristen made the best dips.  There were about 5 different kinds. Homemade red salsa, guacamole, this other green salsa, 2 different ranch style ones.  Delicious.  They have 2 boys and a girl who are not too much older than Rylee. So the kids enjoyed the evening. We set off a few fireworks with the kids out front when it got dark and came home tired and wore out.  Poor Adam still had to go to work for the night.  He is doing very well since he came back to the Lord and I am always thrilled when he wants to talk to me about spiritual matters. Feels great!  We are heading out to WA to spend a little more time with Bro. Jimmie before he heads back to TX until Sept. will be back Saturday. We are taking the RV up there so he can get it set up and ready for his move.  I am looking to move closer into town this fall since we live about an hour from where we gather for church in Tempe.  I've made this trip back and forth for two years going on my third. We rent a conference room so we also drag all our church stuff in and out every Sunday.  I'm not complaining too much  mind you. :) I'm thankful for the place just would like to be able to get there with a little more ease and when some of the members are sick or need me to be able to get to them a little quicker. Plus Aaron starts at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Chandler and Sara has one last semester at ASU and her internship which will be in Tempe and downtown at the Children's museum.  The drive is a killer everyday not too mention the gas used. So hence the need for a move.  I'm thankful that our folks are so good about the drive they make to church some of them have health issues. A few of them live almost an hour away too but they are faithful and come every Sunday.  Tempe is just the most central for everyone and I would like to be closer to the church for outreach in the community. It is easier if you live in the community the church is in or at least resonable time from it.  Well on to another subject. Israel, yes what an opportunity and blessing it would be to go and we are seriously praying and considering.  We might never get this opportunity in our life time again so we are really wanting to go especially since it is with other church saints. Just a lot of things to consider and pray about, seriously.  If your on facebook their are pictures on our church facebook page of the revival. Just have never been able to get the pics from Sara and Jens camera to my computer to post here. Maybe one day. LOL I'm so bad.
