Big Ern Turns 88!

A couple Sunday's ago we celebrated my Granddaddy's 88th birthday. Wow! 88 and lookin great! These are a few things about Big Ern in tribute of his 88 years on earth...
He's a follower of Christ
He's been married to my "Mamere" for 65 years
He has 3 children, 5 grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild
He was a pilot WWII
He worked for Mobil for years and lived and traveled all over the world
He graduated from The University of Texas (but we don't hold it against him too much)
He loves pecan pie and anything with coconut
He learned how to use email and Skype in his 80s and loves it
He is in excellent health despite his age
He has a favorite granddaughter (any guesses who that might be?)

But the most important thing about Big Ern is that he's just one sweet,amazing person who I love and admire and who is loved and admired by many. Happy Birthday Granddaddy! I hope you have many more :)

Red River Wedding Weekend

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
--Genesis 2:24

We traveled up to Red River, NM this past weekend to witness our friend Sky marry his sweetheart Katelin. It was such a beautiful day. The weather was perfect. The aspen trees were turning bright shades of gold. Far cry from the scenery of Lubbock. We are very proud of Sky and Katelin for making this decision to marry. Sometimes life takes you down unexpected paths, but it's how you react to situations which shows your true character. It something I'll never forget. Thanks guys for letting us be a part of your special day.
