The Biggest News of the Year

We've been waiting to post until we announced it to the church. We did that today, and it was very sad because we love Grace Community.

While home on Spring Break, Helen was offered a job as a first grade teacher at Fuentes Elementary. We also were asked to rent a house from a family who is going to Indonesia for two years. Several other things fell into place during Spring Break, and we are confident that we should move back to Texas this summer. We will be leaving the last week of June. Helen will teach, and I will spend a year taking classes from the Southwestern extension center in San Antonio, and then finish my last year at Southern online.

While we are sad to leave our friends and church family here, we are thrilled to go back to Texas.

Back in KY

Yes we're back. We flew from San Antonio to Chicago Midway and then from there to Louisville. The ride from Chicago to Louisville was pretty bumpy, but I was able to get some sleep anyway. We got back, ate lunch, and mailed our taxes. Now it's back to business as usual. I have three weeks left of school and Helen has about a month and a half.

More coming soon...

Something to Pass the Time

We have several months before Fightin' Texas Aggie Football kicks off. This should help.

That's Right You're Not From Texas...

We're in Texas right now. Our trip is a little past half way through, and we're having a good time even though people have to work during the day. We were able to watch Helen's brother Sam play baseball and we'll get to see her other brother Paul pitch on Friday. It should be a good time. Maybe we'll get some pictures or something.

We'll be back Saturday in the early afternoon, just in time for church on Sunday. The semester is winding down and we both have much to do before it ends.

In other news, billy gillispie decided to go to Kentucky, which I can't be upset about. However, the manner in which he left was very disappointing. He did not meet with his players, and in fact was a little dishonest with them and with the incoming recruits. He also told a big time recruit a day before he made the announcement that he was leaving for Kentucky and he wanted the recruit to come with him. That's either an ncaa violation or unethical or both. But either way, he's gone. At first I was distraught, but I forgot we still have Bill Byrne on our side. And lo and behold, the new Aggie coach that I'm extremely excited about...


Mark Turgeon from Wichita State. A heck of a coach, a family man, and one mean snarl. So I'm excited about Aggie bball again. Now if only he can keep Deandre and Co. for next year. (BJ Holmes, Nathan Walkup, Victor Dkzkwzsky -- don't know how to spell it-- and Co.)
