Love is......

......patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-13

Memorial Day Weekend

What a wonderful weekend. We haven't been this many places all in one weekend in a long while. We headed to Madisonville Saturday morning and enjoyed the day celebrating Grand mom Whites 99th birthday. The kids enjoyed playing with cousins and roaming the back pasture. Cory saw a group of butterfly's and tried his hardest to create a home grown net out of the craw fish sack to catch one for Jacie. It wasn't very successful :~(. Jordan was his usual great crazy self, getting bit by donkeys and walking on top of the bridge. After that we went out to Aunt Pam and Uncle Jim's to swim a bit. Jax had a blast with Ann shooting everyone with the noodle water gun.

Then we headed to Houston to visit with Mema and Dado for a bit. Their new house is beautiful. Jacie and Jax enjoyed the long awaited "bubble bath swimming tub". They had been out there a few times and seen the huge tub before the house was finished. The anticipation had built up more than we knew. Jordan and Jacie slept in the new house while Jax tagged along with Cory and I in the trailer. Jordan said he thought it would be warmer in the house, since Mema kept it ice cold in the trailer, but no dice. We found him curled in the fetal position the next morning near frozen.... LOL..... we love you Mema :~). The kids went over to the park early the next morning and enjoyed some play time in the cool morning .

Last we dropped by the soccer fields in Spring, where Sydney was playing in a tournament. We were there for about 5 minutes when it began to POUR down rain. We were all soaked and ran for shelter. After enjoying dinner with everyone, we headed for home.

What a great weekend.
