January
Its been an interesting and exciting month here with alot going on. The first weekend of the month we flew to Tallahassee, FL to interview for a worship position. We decided not to make that move but then I was brought on part time as the youth minister here at the Buchanan Church. This is a temporary setup as the worship ministry search continues. We had more friends come over and visit for the weekend and enjoyed sometime out on the snowy slopes. This weekend Kathy and I celebrate 11 years of being married so we are excited about that. God has continued to bless us in many ways and given us some new opportunities that we are now pursuing. I have spent the past month writing alot of new songs to hopefully record later this year. Thanks again for visiting the site and for your prayers. We will see what God has in store! Every day seems to be another suprise!

Frosty the Snowball 

Frosty the Snowball
We got over 7 inches here of snow on the west side of the state. Ethan went out the other day and managed to make his own "snow man". We are not sure how he rolled this by himself but he was pretty proud of it.
Ethan the Entertainer
Last Sunday was the Christmas program for the kids. Ethan during the last song got into a pushing match with the older kid standing next to him. They were singing and the whole time pushing each other harder as they both stood dead center in the front row. The congregation was cracking up. Finally came the last dramatic note and they still were having fun at their new game. While both of them still were laughing Ethan got the final shove and the older kid went tumbling to the floor. Then there was a moment of silence as the song ended and all you could hear was Ethan and his goofy laugh as the congregatation began to applause at the end of the song. The perfect Christmas Hallmark moment and a sure sign that he is definitely my kid.

Concert in Dearborn
Thank you everyone who came out for the concert. It was a great night to visit and share in music. We had a whirlwhind trip over that direction with stops in Jackson, Livonia, Dearborn, Canton and then up to Grand Rapids and it was great to see so many old friends and family along the way. Christmas is here and we are getting ready for the holidays as I know all of you are too. We got another 4 inches or so of snow here and have been out enjoying that. HOpe you all have a great Holiday season and stay tuned for more news coming your way in the new year!
