the first post of 2009...

Its only the fourth day of 2009 and already there is so much to write about. Here are just a few of the highlights for me so far in '09.

Got to spend a few hours at the Bass Pro Shop and it was amazing! I am not into hunting or fishing that much but the experience was still amazing! If you are ever near one, its worth the time to take a look!

Witnessed a mother teach her boys manners firsthand at Starbucks one morning. As I was enjoying my drink, this mother stopped right outside the doors of the coffee shop until her two young boys worked together and used all their weight to open the door for their mother. I thought it was pretty cool and am glad there are a few boys learning to be polite in the younger generations.

Finally and perhaps my favorite highlight from a very young 2009 was the message on Ephesians I had the privilege of listening to this morning. It was awesome and I am looking forward to the weeks to come!
