Monday Morning Ramblings (through the eyes of the wife)

1) I know everyone wants to see pictures and I promise they are coming (just not today. Well unless I feel like it later ...lol). I am taking the day off (maybe even the week).

2) This weekend was very humbling. We have been tasked with a big responsibility and Marc and I both realize that we will need to rely totally on God for direction.

3) Our pastor from Kansas who licensed Marc to preach nearly 16 years ago traveled from Riley to surprise Marc (we had been planning it for months and it was worth it just to see Marc's face when he realized they were here). It was the highlight of the weekend for us.

4) My family and friends showed up and showed out this weekend. Thank you so much.

5) The luncheon was great and the food was delicious. Special thanks goes out to Ricky and Roy's Catering who provided food for the entire weekend.

6) I think Marc did more crying then me this weekend. It couldn't have happened to a nicer man.

7) I know everyone wanted to know about the outfit (lol). My sister Cori did an awesome job.

8) Speaking of food. We had way to much food left over. Just a suggestion to anyone who is ever asked to attend an event where food is involved...if you are asked to join someone for a meal please go an partake. A lot of work goes into things like this, and in most cases some hard earned money (I'm just saying).

9) On several occasions I was told in no uncertain terms that I am a First Lady (whether I like it or not). Just so you all know I understand that and accept it. I just don't have to do it the same old way its been done before. And I think most of the women of WABC have figured that out.

10) Lastly I have to give a special shout out to Pastor Beamon who was our speaker on Sunday afternoon. He was off the chain (Nicki is going to kill me when she reads this). He kept it real, and maybe even stepped on a few toes (who am I kidding...he stepped on some knees). It fit perfectly with the mission for WABC which is to be a Real Church, Serving the Real God, Reaching Out to Real People, to Effect Real Change.

Update: there are a bunch of pics from the weekend in the church gallery.
