General Updates I’ve been more focused on fundamental planning and what this year will mean for us. I’ve made a few strategic decisions and am laying in the tactical groundwork. I am convinced that if you deep down want something to happen that God will point you the way and the Holy Spirit will act …
Archery Tournament We kicked off the weekend with an Archery Tournament for Ted. He competed with multiple schools at Boone County High School. He did pretty well, and was super stoked afterward about it. I ended up setting a target in the yard this week so he got some practice in. I hope this becomes …
Derby Cars I took a new approach to building Derby Cars for Cub Scouts this year. Instead of pitching to have it done the evening before the race, I decided to spend an entire day doing it. Who would’ve thought that setting aside more time to do this would make it easier? I let both …
NKU Basketball We visited Truist Arena to see NKU Men’s Basketball Team play after a nice lunch at Cracker Barrel. My niece sang the National Anthem with her school choir. It was a good time. It is a nice arena and a great asset to our area. The boys also wanted to see a real …

We literally had our bags packed when my oldest son accidentally cut himself and needed stitches. This pushed us back roughly 2.5 hours from our initial departure time. …
Christmas Parties We spent the last week attending several Christmas parties. First off was a get together with my siblings. We spent most of a Saturday together talking and letting the kids play together. These events are different now that my mom passed away and I find myself thinking about her a lot during this …
Basketball Season Underway Ben is back playing basketball for his second season and it’s obvious that he’s improved. He’s always been a great passer and defender but his dribbling and shooting is getting better. I feel bad because we don’t have a basketball goal for him at home to practice on. Our driveway is too …
