Basketball Season Ends

Our basketball season officially ended on Wednesday with a loss in the tournament. The girls played really hard and wanted to win but the game just got away from them in the 3rd quarter. This was the last game of the season since it was single elimination. Way to go Long Shots for a great season! Kelsie really learned a lot this season and wants to continue to play so we will see if there are any summer clinics to keep up learning and practicing the basics.

This weekend was a quick trip to San Angelo to see the fam. It was a whirlwind trip but it was good to see everyone. Unfortunately, as soon as we got back on Saturday, Wayne was headed straight to Care Now with fever and body aches. He has strep throat and has been in bed for the last couple of days but is feeling better today after a steroid shot and a couple days of antibiotics. Thankfully, we have an awesome praise team and they led worship and did a great job.

Okay, I want to warn you that for the next few months you will be updated quite often on the house progress. It's really exciting for us but might get very boring for you. So, read at your own risk......

Progress is being made on the house. The forms for the foundation are laid and they have started laying the plumbing today. The builder's meeting was today and our builder was great! He was extremely accommodating with the changes we wanted to make and so now we just have to make some final decisions in the next few weeks. Our first walk through will be at frame stage in just a few weeks. It is fun to see it all coming together.

On to the thankful list:
1. The pretty woodpecker I see every day on the property. He is so interesting to watch and beautiful with a bright red head. Also the blooming trees and flowers on the property.
2. The time change - I love it when it's lighter longer.
3. Kelsie's heart to serve - she was so attentive when my ankle was hurt. She loved helping at Serve Prosper and this weekend has been attentive to her daddy, always asking me if I think he needs a popsicle. She even made KILLER smoothies on Sunday night!
4. Our basketball coach - so patient with the girls and a good teacher.
5. Sunday afternoon shopping with Kelsie. We left the house to get out and let Wayne sleep and so we did a little Spring Break shopping and we had the best day out. Had lunch together and did the girl thing So fun and great memories!

Hope you are having a blessed week - I pray you see God in all the little blessings He has given you with the people in your life and the things around you. Spring is a great visual reminder of new beginnings for me. I hope you are inspired by God's handiwork. Let us hear from you.
