Pray for Nathan

We have some seminary friends in Louisville, the McLean Family. Please take a minute to visit their website and to pray for their son Nathan.

Homeowners!

The Tipton's are homeowners! We promise to post pictures as soon as we open the box that stashed the camera! We began working on the house at the end of December and moved in at the beginning of January. The major project we're working on right now is laying 17" tile in the kitchen. We can't wait to see the finished floor! More importantly, we can't wait to have our refrigerator, oven, stove top and dishwasher back in the kitchen. (Right now our appliances are enjoying an extended sleepover in the great room.) The last few weeks we've creatively cooked from the microwave, grill (yes it's been 12 degrees outside), and toaster oven. I think that at this point in the process I can agree with my college professor, Carrie Whaley, "The best thing I make is reservations."

In addition to visiting Lowe's and Do It Yourself websites, the last six weeks we've been recovering from a variety of common colds and flus that are rampant this time of year. Our illnesses have certainly caused a setback on the home improvement timeline. It's been the perfect opportunity to practice flexibility!
