Monday - Friends Mason & Hudson were still with us for the day. Holly took all the kids swimming at our other friend's the Cantus. Austin went from swimming to "Shibby" which is the new freshmen introduction to the Sr. High Ministry. They were supposed to go tubing in San Marcos, but Tropical Storm Edouard was looming and they decided not to travel even though it was away from the storm.
Tuesday - Coaches Outreach was at 7am (picture up top). I left there and went over to my buddy Dave's shop to change the oil in Holly's car. The school's were closed because of Tropical Storm Edouard and the church office closes when the schools close, so I went home (even though it didn't look at all Tropical stormy!) When I got home I played Phase 10 with family. Never really saw much of the effects of the storm although Magnolia saw some strong winds, but no serious damage (a large tree fell over at the house where Austin was staying for Shibby).
Wednesday - staff meeting
Thursday - Attended Willow Creek Leadership Summit at Fellowship of the Woodlands with the staff. It was one of the best conferences I've attended. Bill Hybels is certainly used of the Lord, but is also a ministry genius.
Friday - Willow Creek Leadership Summit continued and was just as amazing as the first day. Dinner with staff and wives at Landry's Seafood! Tyler went to his FIRST youth group function (as an incoming 6th grader) called "Shibby" which is the new 6th graders introduction to the youth ministry. Overnight fun.
Saturday - Lazy day until 4:30pm and then Holly and I headed off to see the Pastor sing with his old choir (classmates and other alumni) at the Houston Baptist University Reunion concert. Favorite babysitter of the boys, Rebekah Fontenot took the boys to a movie.
Sunday - Pretty typical Sunday morning, but we celebrated Tyler's birthday at lunch. We had all signed a b-day card for him and when he read it he started crying and said "Thanks guys". It was very sweet.
