The most challenging thing about being here is not speaking Spanish. Sure, I had 11 weeks of Spanish class and know a little more than a baby on his first day of life, but not too much more. R, on the other hand, is doing much better communicating as she had 6 months of class. Last night, I went to WalMart and ordered Dish Mexico TV for our house. This was a challenge with my "Que Hora Es?" Spanish. See this youtube video for a laugh or two. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WckCw_-7e3M

He Said--A day at Skyland Bible Conference.
This week, our family is on vacation at the Skyland Bible Conference in Dayton, TN. This conference holds a special place in our hearts because it is where my wife and I met 19 years ago!
Today, after hearing a great speaker in the morning, we spent the afternoon at Pocket Wilderness where we hiked and swam in the cold water of the mountain stream.
What a wonderful day it has been; hearing the Word of God, enjoying the beauty of his creation, and spending time with family and friends!
