the G sides

Haven’t blogged in a week and this one is going to be about sports. I’ll post some pics later today - after I upgrade my WP.
BUT…the Denver Broncos stumble into the off-season just like they stumbled into the regular season - relying on Elam to bail their underperforming offense and defense out for a […]

The damage is done.
The wrapping paper is picked up.
The snow is falling.
My stepmother sent enough Auburn gear for me to open my own John Deere Dealership.
Guitar Hero 3, the Princess tent and horse necklaces, the books, and the candy….room makeovers…
The list is impressive.
But Merry Christmas to all…and some photos […]

It’s coming close to the end of Fantasy Football (I’m 11-2 in one league contending for the championship, 6-8 in the other with a chance to get to 5th place) and there are major decisions to make…like who to keep for next year.
There are lots of things to consider - how does your league do […]

One day, I’m told, that he’ll ask to be dropped off a block away so his friends can’t see us….you know, the ‘uncool parents.’
I’m told that one day he’ll quit hugging and kissing us before bed. He’ll quit asking so many questions and see a day hanging out with his dad as punishment.

Part of Jesus’ Birth series in our weekly evos. This week is from Matthew 2:1-12
Ever wanted something so bad that it rearranged your life? It totally consumed you? Like standing in line for a Wii? An iPhone? What about wasting two days online for World Series tickets or maybe to […]

If you don’t know what a gelding is…there you are.

I’m not sure what was worse last night - the game or the announcers or those hideously loud red unis the Texans were sporting. Actually that’s not quite true. I do know what was worse - any coach on […]

I feel sorta bad for Arthur Blank…and really bad for Arkansas. Petrino is twice the liar that Saban was and that’s saying something!!
After Petrino shook Blank’s hand on Monday and told him that he was his head coach, he went right out the next day to Arkansas.
[Sidenote: Arkansas got a good […]

Part of our weekly evo series on the birth of Jesus. Matthew 1:18-25.
Lots of people make a big deal out of Mary and that’s understandable on one hand. The only woman ever to have God inside her womb…God’s mom…I mean, that’s a pretty exclusive club. A membership of one.
But I think about […]

Had a member of our church come by the office today and drop off some Christmas gifts for the staff - Christmas Wreaths.
Except these wreaths are awesome.
They are more awesome than Chuck Norris.
They are wreaths packed with candy.
Mine is my favorite - Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
This woman either loves us […]

Dave Baumgartner is not only one of our elders, but he’s going back to school, finishing up a degree. One of the classes he is taking is a youth ministry class. One of his projects of the class was to observe and evaluate a youth ministry…so he picked ours. He observed, asked […]
