The Parent’s are Here

Matthew | March 25, 2008

A Prayer of a Two Year Old.

Last night Charity told me that Gabrielle said her first prayer. Charity has been asking her to pray for a little while, and each time Gabrielle did not want to pray. But yesterday she decided to give prayer a chance. Here is the prayer that she prayed. “Jesus, why don’t you [...]

Tokens of Love

Matthew | January 28, 2008

Bad Lost for WVU, But Great Time for the Morine’s

Matthew | September 29, 2007

Last night we watched the West Virgina game against South Florida. We should have won the game. The person who beat us was us, not them. We made big mistakes at important times in the game. I am a Tennessee fan number one, but the wife loves WVU because she grew [...]

Family Picture from the Vacation

Matthew | September 22, 2007

Here is the family picture from the big vacation. It was a great time. We got there just after a storm and left before another storm came. Great timing. I gained five pounds, but we ate some great seafood, especially at the Gulf Shores Steamer. It was in Costal Living [...]
