This was the best Christmas ever!! Everything was great, seeing family, friends, church, and the best... Manushak. I got her a mickey mouse watch that she loves. She got me some shoes and cologne. We had a great day, we had to get up so early because of church. But we made time to have our first christmas gift exchange. We were both so happy.

We then went to church, it turned out great. I thought One Voice did a great job as aslways. Above anything though, I really felt like we touched peoples lives that service. There shouldn't have been anyone who could walk away and say that didn't speak to me. The message of the letters tured out pretty good. I think my favorite for me was... "Dear Blessed One" I have been so blessed this year and I know that it has all come from God, he loves me so much. It was good for me to hear... "well done son".

Then we went to my parents house and opened gifts. Manushak and I got tickets to go see Kentucy basketball at Rupp Arena. I am so excited about that. We are going jan 2, and can't wait. The best was watching everyone else open there gifts we got them.

Tonight (monday) I had our Edge small group party and the Carrie boys, Lucas, Morgan, Manushak and I somehow ended up underneath the Christmas tree singing Christmas songs. It was so awesome, Gail has video of this.

God is so awesome, this has truly been an awesome way to end the year.

Well it has been some time since I have written on here. However I read what all the people I am subscried to puts on here. Life has been great... God is so amazing. Sometime I can't get over how much he loves His children.

Manushak and I sent out 260 Christmas cards this year. It took us  2 days to get all of them ready. Well it shouldn't of taken that long but we did the "thank you" cards at the same time, so obviously that doubled the time. It was well worth it, it amazed me how sending someone a simple card can really bless them.

This week I am working a lot getting ready for our Christmas services, they are going to be awesome. I watched One Voice sing last night and they sounded GREAT!

I am so excited!!! Today I get to go to lunch with Ryan Fuhrman and maybe Karrissa Patrick, I saw Lucas P. yesterday, Rachelle is coming home this weekend... all my college friends are coming back. I love it. Plus Daniel M. is coming home. I love seeing old friends, I think my favorite part is that the friendships pick up right where they were before. Even though we all are so different and have changed (especially Lucas!, you know, first year at Masters') we all act like we have been best friends all year.

I just got off the phone with my best friend from college Matt Mason. He is a worship leader in New Orleans... well he was in New Orleans. I have been trying for a week to reach him and finally suceeded. I can't even imagine to know what that is like, I got on his church web site and it has 10' of water in it and all around it. It was so wierd to see the pictures, I guess because I have actually been there and worshipped there and now to see it with water all in it really brought this to reality. Matt's home got little damage so that is good. You can see pics if you want on www.lakeviewchrisitancenter.com

So here is my beef... What can we do? I so wish that I just had money to be able to give them, they need drums, sound equipment, everything for there church. Why can't christians be full of money so that we can help one another in need. I pray that God shows us all what we can do to help these people!

Being married is great. I know I have said this before but really, I guess I never knew what I was missing. I also didn't know that it was going to be this easy. I see so many marriages that really look like hell on earth. I know I have only been married for 4 weeks, but we have not even came close to having a disagreement not alone an argument or fight. Now I am not stupid I know the day will come when we disagree on something but I could never imagine having an arguement with her. I am so blessed by God!!!!!!!!

Wired is coming.... that is exciting! It is gonig to be awesome this year, ofcourse there is a lot of work to be done in the next week and half. I had my first human video practice with Lucas and Ariel... it went really good. I really missed having human video practices. Those were some really good times. Lucas and Ariel are awesome, we have a lot of work ahead of us, but they are doing a great job... I love them both. It also helps having Pat be a director also, not as much pressure under one person, we work good together on human videos.

I miss all the college people!!!!!!!!

Today was the Renfro Reunion, so I guess I can say I ate some great food, other than that not much going on. Hung out with the parents tonight, we played cards (pitch) my dad and Manushak always win and my mom and I always loose.

I can't believe the Cardinals lost to the cubs tonight, why even when they are  a great team do they have to loose to the cubs. If anyone in xanga land can tell me why, please let me know. I really don't understan Cub fans at all, unless you are a cub fan because it has been apart of your family for many years. Otherwise how could you support a team that can not and does not win?
