My Kids

The best part of homecoming weekend at LCU is getting to see all our kids, including our blonde son and his lovely wife.  We were able to worship together at Sunset Church of Christ and then headed over for some Mexican food for lunch. 

My mom heart is so grateful that Caleb and Richard have spent their undergraduate time together at LCU. Their personalities are different; they have different career goals; but their faith in God and desire to serve Him with all their heart is the same.  It's been a true blessing knowing they are doing this part of their lives together. 

A man of many companions may come to ruin,

    but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Proverbs 18:24

Kyodai for the Win!

This weekend is LCU's Homecoming and Master Follies!  This year LCU celebrated 60 years of Master Follies, a musical variety show featuring students in performances. Each of LCU's eight social clubs, which are much like fraternities and sororities, perform a show using songs and choreography to tell an original story. Judges assess each performance, and the results are tallied on the final night to determine winners in men's and women's categories.

Caleb's club Kyodai had a fabulous show about a really disorganized and disjointed scout group trying to earn their camping badge. As a vice president of Kyodai, Caleb was one of the directors for this year's performance! The guys took 2nd place!  

It was a great finish to his senior year.  I'm so proud of Caleb for all his hard work from the Honors program; 4 years of Student Senate; 4 years of club with 3 as an officer; travel abroad; student tutoring; student ambassador; and 2 internships.  

Commit your work to the Lord,

    and your plans will be established.

Proverbs 16:3

A Beautiful Friendship

It's getting closer to graduation time for my favorite catcher girl.  Abigail and Sarah, her HSAA pitcher, had pictures taken together today.  

The girls have played ball together for six years as pitcher and catcher. Abigail and Sarah are co-captains for the Angels.  The girls have played high school ball and select ball together and it just seemed fitting to have this portion of their senior pictures taken together. 

Always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:4-6

Cap and Gowns

Their caps and gowns came in!  I can't believe Abigail's graduation is getting closer.  Her senior year is flying by! 

Today several of the PEACH graduates got together for pictures in their caps and gowns.  Abigail, Gracie and Gabe looked adorable . . . I mean so grown up an ready to take on the world.  

To make an apt answer is a joy to a man,

    and a word in season, how good it is!

Proverbs 15:23

Angels vs. Lebanon Trail

The HSAA Angels took on Lebanon Trail High School tonight.  Lebanon Trail is one of the few public High Schools that we play, most of the other teams are private schools.  

The Angels had a good showing but weren't able to pull off the win.  They got a little behind in the second inning and even though the Angels continued to score they they never caught back up.  

We will play them again later this month with hopefully a better outcome.  Abigail had three at bats with one hit and a walk. 

Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who know you,

    and your righteousness to the upright of heart!

Psalm 36:10
