Friday Update

What a beautiful day it is today. Wow. Yesterday morning (Thursday), I woke up with horrible pain in my sinuses so I got a slow start in my day. I ended up working until 7 last night. After I got home we ate together. After dinner, Austin, Sean, and I invited a young man over from church to play a little Halo3 on the big screen TV. That was really sweet.

Debbie had to work from 9 to 11 this morning so Jeremy and I hung out together. We went to the gym to work out. Here we are after all that…

Remember the Alamo!

On my daughters field trip on Friday, we went to the Imax theater and watched a film about the Alamo. What a great story! I was moved to a tear several times. Here are a few themes that hit me:

1) Standing up for what you believe in, no matter the cost. These guys faced certain death at the hands of a much larger army.

2) The price of freedom is blood.

3) Giving the enemy “Hell.” They knew they were going to lose the battle and die. But they were going to make the enemy pay dearly on their way out. Travis said “Our deaths will cost the enemy far more than if we had victory over them.” That’s awesome.
