Boys were made for "Risk Taking"!


Jay Sterling with a "flex" dive off the high rocks!

What a great day today! We were at Lake Leatherrock just north of Eureka Springs and they had a huge lake with some high dive action. All the boys were taking some serious risk. Sterling was doing some head first dives, Micah was doing whatever he wanted, Jansen just wanted to dive without his lifejacket into 20 ft deep waters (and Daddy let him, Mom said NO), Regan, he was a little cautious. All Tessy said most of the day was, "I don't think that is a good idea" and "I wouldn't do that". Finally, I said, "of course you wouldn't do that, you are not a boy, cause this is what is in the heart of young boys, ADVENTURE and CHALLENGES". Not sure if she was buying into all that talk or not. However, she finally loosened up a bit and let us be US. She even got into the action with a dive off the high rocks. You Go Girl! That's why I love you. You get into the action with all us boys.


Dad, get'in in on the action "head first"

As we all know, Life brings us various challenges, all shapes and sizes. Be confident in Christ Jesus, He will always do what He says He will do. For all you at TFC, thanks for facing the challenges with Tessy and I. Thanks for being a part of our lives!

Tonight, we will see "The Great Passion Play".

All I want to know is did she scream the whole way down?

I sure thought she was going to. I must say, she never made a sound, she did have her eyes closed tight the whole way down. She even did it twice!
