Long day but a good one

Had a good but long day today. I went to our Men's Prayer breakfast at church this morning at 6 am. Got there a little late but I'm always refreshed when I go. You just get a sense that God is smiling at you.

Got a lot of work done before people started getting into the office and had lunch with my youth pastor buddy, Anthony. He does middle school ministry too at River Valley Community Church in South Bend. He's a funny guy ... way funnier than me so I always appreciate the times we have to get together and talk Middle School Ministry with one another.

Got home in time to have a quick dinner with the family and make some phone calls to a few people. Next we headed to the Girl's Overnighter. There are definitely some great things that are going to take place and already have. My wife is excited about the girls from her small group being there. I just got home, put the girls to bed and walked the dog. I'm tired but am excited to hear what the response from the girls will be.

These girls are WAY MORE HARDCORE than any girls that went to go see a "New Moon" movie...

Oh yeah ... and Abby Miller beat me in a game of basketball up to 11. Keep in mind she came dressed to play and with attitude and I came dressed in jeans and an attitude that I hope I don't get beat by a girl. Better luck next time I guess.
