SuperBowl Party!!!

We had our first Super Bowl party in Canton!
We also used the time as an open house and invited the church to come over, watch the superbowl with us, and see our freshly painted home! And 25 people showed up!
Here's some shots from the night...

Ryan set up a Big Screen on the wall in the living room with the projector... and a bed sheet!

I had SO much fun making all this food!! :)








25 people squeezed in here... and there's still room for more!! :)




When we finally let Claxton out... he sniffed everyone, and then crashed on Vickie's feet... he'd worn himself out whining and begging to be let out! :)
The only thing that would have made the night better is... if the Colts would have won!

What Marriage Is Doing To Us...

So we were brushing our teeth last night when Kara discovered something awful -




Her first grey hair. She started to cry so I pulled it out for her -



Then she reminded me of all of mine -



Then today I had to preach at the local hospital in Canton.

They have an extended care unit that is sort of like a nursing home. So I went to preach today and at the end I was just chatting with them and mentioned Kara's new hair.

To which one old lady replied - "Tell her to get over it! Everybody gets old." And then another woman said, "Tell her you can still be grey and beautiful."
