"See ya later" at Cammack Village

There are those people who you can go YEARS without any contact and always pick up where you left off. The people below are those people (minus 1 amazing Ritta). Some we have known since high school while others we met in college or later. We continue to laugh at things that most would never consider laughing and can find humor in just about anything. Our family may be going to the other side of the globe, but one thing remains true ... the love and bond we have with these special people. Thanks so much ... all of you ... for going the extra mile!!

The friends...

...and their offspring!!

Janie used to hold these two in her arms...

Wish we had the proverbial nickle for every picture we have of Elizabeth and Eliza sitting just like this ... from birth to teen. They, too, are always able to pick up just where they left off. We love you, Eliza!!

Michael W. Smith said it best - "friends are friends forever." Nothing much more to say. Forever.

What a treat it was to have the pool all to ourselves....great friends and a great night to just be. Love you guys and look forward to another night in Cammack in 3 years!!

Favorite Quotes:

"The world is not our place of rest; it is a time of work and follow hard after Je$us. When we get home, we can rest. But for now, G*d is calling His children to share the gospel of the cross, the power of our Holy Father; it's time we obediently follow Him. May we all live our lives in a manner worthy of the calling we have received in Chr!st Je$us. May we live lives we will never regret." -- FACING TERROR, Carrie McDonnall

"Great advances in demonstrating the B!ble's relevance rarely come from the restless minds of marketers. They come from people who dare to obey what they read. ...On the cruel edges of the world, there is no need for elaborate explanations to bring a distant b!blical text closer to our lives. Rather, when we go to the cruel edges of the world, we bring our lives closer to the text." --Andy Crouch, Chr!stianity Today
"...because I know that my Father knows, and I am going to watch and see how He unravels this thing." -- Oswald Chambers, MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST

“Lay it all on the altar – your life, your family, your comforts – and count it joy that you have the privilege of serving Him, and you’ll have the song in your heart." -- Jerry Rankin, company President
