Thank you for your Patience

For starters, I want to say thank you to all of you for patiently waiting for a post. We are sorry for the delay, life was very crazy the past three weeks or so since we last posted. We've had visitors from Georgia (Missy, Scott, Nancy and Lindy) and we had a blast with them and appreciate everything they've done for us!

MaryMayes is growing up so fast, and we can't stop her! She's starting to really eat those baby food veggies...she loves green beans! She is becoming more and more of an adult everyday. She's been having some small issues with sleeping, but overall we could not be more blessed. Holly is loving being a mother! She's also had the opportunity to minister to two girls with the Biola Mentorship program, and the girls on the sports teams seem to love her! But, Holly's favorite thing is being a mom and taking care of MayMae everyday. As a father/husband, it is so sweet to watch those two bond and connect on a daily basis. We are truly humbled by God's blessings.
School is going well for me, though it has been an extremely difficult week of work (three tests, three papers, a sermon, and research all in the same week, not to mention the steady flow of reading that is required). I'm not complaining, it is such a blessing to sit under these men and learn about God's Word. The ministry is going great as well. We've had several Thursday meetings now and there are about 1/4 of the athletes on campus coming now, which is a good number but far short of our goal of reaching every athlete. I'm meeting with several young men, athletes and non athletes, which has been a real blessing. This week I also started a fifteen hour per week part time job working with the mentor program on campus. This is something I love being a part of and it gives me a phone number on campus and an office for the students to have a a place to reach me at most of the time. It is a difficult schedule, and God is really allowing Holly and I to spend a lot of time together, while still giving us a great ministry and community in which to be a part.
We love you all so much, and thank you so much for your love and support!

Here are the pics!
