fun part...
michelle and i often kid each other about how we work better as a team. we realized this a while back playing video games at main event. we both can get pretty competitive. (i know by looking at me you would say "no way!")

one of my favorite parts...
so michelle is this incredibly creative and talent individual. among many other things. but she's really good at what she does. michelle is currently working on a project doing some graphics for this guy who is making sort of a historical park in brownfield, tx.

cool part...
the guy needed some architectural type drawings of some of the elements in the park so mish recommended using me.

really cool part...
so tuesday morning michelle and i are sitting in this guys dining room discussing the park project and troubleshooting design problems. i get to dust of my architecture skills. michelle is using her graphic design skills. and we are working together. as a team. i'm sitting there thinking that this is probably one of the most incredible things that i have ever gotten to be apart of. it's so much fun getting to share in each others lives that way. and we are both getting paid for it.

the talent crashers...

I was in silent protest about going and seeing the movie the wedding crashers simply because i feel that ever since the wilson brothers have hooked up with vince vaughn they've become nothing more than fast-food actors. i think old vince is bring'em down.

however, last night fellowship became the ruling party and i hauled off with brent, nathan, and a handful of some guys in our ministry who just graduated high school and will be leaving for college within the next two weeks. we went out to dinner and then saw a late showing of the wedding crashers. ok, i admit, i laughed. there were some funny lines. but i am sticking to my guns when i say that vince vaughn is over-rated and that owen wilson needs to start writing with wes anderson again.

she left a tear on my shoulder...

today michelle and i went up to irving bible to watch one of her students get baptized. michelle was overjoyed as she watched ashlin make a her faith all the more public. michelle had been praying that God would show her some sort of tangible growth in her girls. she really wanted to see something before she left. michelle will be leaving the high school ministry at ibc at the end of august and it will be difficult for her to stay in touch with the girls she has been ministering to over the year. many of which she has grown very close to. especially the one who was baptized. not too long after michelle started praying ashlin made the decision to get baptized. i'm so excited for the both of them. i'm so glad michelle got to see some of the fruits of her labor but more than anything i am totally jacked that ashlin was baptized today.

So do I have to go the speed limit when I pray in my car?
