Sorry it's been so long since I've posted anything. We have been really busy these past few months. We have had a few things happen in the past few months. Let's see, I guess the first thing that happened is that my baby turned 15! She got her learner's permit and has been out to drive several times. She is doing well, so far. The day that she got her permit we pulled over at McEwen's city limits and let her drive home through our little city. I sat in front with her. She was so nervous that her legs were shaking but we made it home in one piece. Jonathan has went out with her a few times on the back roads. She drove home last night in the dark. She did really good.



Jonathan finally got the truck that he's always wanted. It's a GMC Canyon. We have had only one vehicle for several years now so it's nice to have a second vehicle. He told Caitlin that he was only buying it so that if she wrecks the van we'll have another vehicle to get around in but he was just kidding. She drove the truck last night for the first time on the way home from our ladies Bible study. She liked driving it better than the van.





Things are going well at the church. We are going through the Fireproof Your Marriage Bible Study on Sunday nights. I think everyone is really enjoying it. We began it by watching the Fireproof movie on Feb. 15th. I don't think there was a dry eye in the house when it was over. The ladies have began a new Bible study. We are doing Esther by Beth Moore. Last night was our first meeting. It looks like it is going to be really good. Caitlin is doing this one with me. It is her first one. I hope she enjoys it. I have started a program called TeamKid on Sunday nights. It is going well. It is for grades 1-6. The kids really like it. It's similar to Awana. We have really enjoyed being a part of it. It has a big emphasis on missions. The kids love watching the missions videos. We are hoping to "adopt" a missionary family for a year. I would like the kids fill like they are really involved in missions. I think by having contact with a missionary family it will help them to better understand what mission work is all about. The youth group is going on a youth conference in Nashville this weekend. Please pray that many will come to know the Lord before they leave. Caitlin is really excited about going.

Well, I think that is all for now. I'll try not to wait as long next time to write a post. I have some pics that I need to put on here sometime soon.

Until next time,
Beth
