Fall has come to Texas...

Well, another week has gone by and we are still on our knees before Christ about our future and the plans the Lord has for us.  Lindsay has been in Charlotte, NC all week and will return Monday from training for her new gig at Portrait Innovations.  She is excited about this new job and is even more excited to be back home with Joe.  Joe is still interviewing with schools and companies worldwide, seeking the Lord's perfect will for his career.  We have moved twice in the past five months and don't want to move again, lest it be the voice of the Lord telling us to do so.  We are happy to have the church community we have here and we enjoy the weather here in Dallas. 

 Not much else to report, except to say thank you to all of you who have kept us in your prayers.  We have exhausted our financial resources, so please pray that the Lord will provide.  We love each and every one of you who are reading this and we appreciate the encouragement you all are.  Though, this is the hardest season of life I have ever been through, we both know that Christ has wonderful plans for us.  

Now for some pictures:

A good friend of ours had tickets to the Dallas Mavericks' first preseason game.  It was a lot of fun, because he has platinum-level seats at center-court, about 12 rows up.  The seats were at the perfect level to see all the action while being able to hear the sounds of the game on the court.  The Mavs played well and won in a rout, and good times were had by all of us.  Below are some pictures of us, a view from our seats, and pictures of the Mavs Maniacs.  Well, yes that is, in fact, a midget   right in the midst of a group of 300 pounders!

Finally, this is a picture I took tonight at the Flower Mound Marcus vs Coppell high school football game.  It was a great game and the Marauders won.  These are two Texas powers and the game was played at Coppell, which has one of the nicest high school stadiums you will ever see.  It is nicer than any small college field I have ever seen, as well.  It truly is amazing how ridiculous high school football is here in Texas, just ask any of the 15,000 fans who were there with me tonight.
