Need one reason why it is easy to root for a guy like Mack Brown. Check out this comment that was made in the post-Rose Bowl locker room.

"Finally, this is the most important thing I want you to hear tonight. Remember that we love you. Be proud of what you have accomplished, and enjoy this moment. Let this be a great thing in life, but don’t let it be the best thing that ever happens in your life. Go on from here, be great husbands and great dads, and make a difference."

What a great retreat yesterday at the Horseshoe Bay Yacht Club. I am impressed and encouraged with the spirit of our Shepherds and their desire to envision a bright, blessed future for the Marble Falls church.

Next Sunday, I will be sharing with the entire church the outcome of our dream planning for the future of the Marble Falls church. I think all of you will be motivated to live out the mission of Jesus.

It's a big kids weekend for us. Tonight, Trae is having three girls over for a sleepover. It should be a fun night of silly girls and scary ghost stories that is sure to be memorable.

Tomorrow, Trae is involved in tryouts for Little Dribblers basketball. She's never played organized basketball before so it will be a fun experience. All of her competitive sports thus far has been in softball, but she is ready to try her hand at a new sport.

I only hope God blessed her with greater basketball skills than He blessed her mom and dad!
