Friends & Bibleman


We have had a lot of good times with friends these last few weeks. It was really refreshing as it seems I have been couped up with the baby so much with the heat. Our Friends Troy and Cheryl are Stateside and came to B'ville to visit and it is always a joy because we only get to see them every two or three years. It is amazing to see how fast their kids are growing. I remember changing their kids diapers and now they are teenagers. Sheesh! We really enjoyed their visit. The boy's talked theology and politics and us girls talked about our kids. :) That's moms for ya. They are a really neat couple who are missionaries in Wales and are very passionate about reaching the lost. We could just sit and talk for hours...and we did.

Then last night we went to see Bibleman Live in Oologah, Oklahoma! We kept it quiet for some time so it would be a surprise for the kids. Dawson was soon catching on.....I guess he is quite the eavesdropper on my conversations. When did that start happening that he was actually interested in adult talk???? However, he was thinking it was going to be a movie. We went with the Holley's, Dickinson's and the Girard's and had a great time watching the newest movie they are about to release. Then Bibleman appears in person and the kids got SO excited. He allowed the kids to ask him questions and talked about how they can be Biblemen and girls too by reading the Bible and hiding it in their hearts. Afterwards he was available to take pictures and talk with the kids so we had him sign their capes and took some pictures.

Hopey and Bibleman

It was really cute because after I took Dawson and Carys' picture of Bibleman I turned off my camera and then all of a sudden Hope jumps right up to Bibleman just like you see in the picture to get her picture too. It didn't dawn on me that she would want a picture with him....I am still in the mode of her being too young for all of this but yet she wants to be smack dab in the middle of everything big brother and sister do. She is our little firecracker! She knows what she wants and goes after it with gusto.
