I have several different things to post about, so make sure you scroll all the way down. I have lots of pictures to put on here, but I want them seperated... so here goes!

NATALIE TAILBY - Natalie came from Corby, England to stay with us for 17 days. We had a blast getting to know her even more. We met Natalie when Phil and I went to England last summer. Here are some pics so you can get to know her a little! Here she is at our family Easter dinner... She got a new dress, isn't the color awesome on her? On Saturday, the church had a bowling activity... she loved it. This was a great time for the church to get to know her better also.
This is her man, Jonathan V. He goes to Crown College with Phil. Jonathan showed up at the airport in Cincinnati to surprise her with a promise ring and a necklace. She screamed so loud, and I was standing right next to her when she saw him. The people at working at the airport were ready to push the "red button" that something was wrong. LOL It was a blast. Congrats to Jonathan and Natalie... we love you both, and pray that God stays in the middle of your relationship and that everything you do, will glorify Him.
One of the things Nat is great doing, is working with kids. By the end of the bowling banquet Nathan had taught them German 1-10 and she had taught them French 1-10. It was great, and very sweet to see her interact with them. This is how we were used to seeing Nat by the time she left. On the phone with Jonathan. LOL Great times. We miss you Nat! We are praying for you, and can't wait to see you again! x-x-x

The McRae's

So, I have a new favorite song and a new favorite Southern Gospel group... Here's some info.

Interesting Fact:Free and McRae Announce Engagement Ricky Free, of the popular quartet Brian Free & Assurance and Kelly McRae, half of sister duo the McRaes are pleased to announce their engagement. Ricky popped the question on Wednesday, September 28th in Nashville, Tennessee. Ricky said, "God sent me an angel and I just knew that I couldn't let this one go.” Kelly added, “Why God chose to bless me with someone 10 times greater than the person I've prayed for, I will never know…but I thank Him for it!" A private ceremony will be held on May 31st, 2006. Ricky and Kelly will reside in Nashville, TN.
Favorite Song: "He knows my name"
Words and Music by Annie McRae

Verse 1 - He counts the stars one and all
He knows how much sand is on the shores
He sees every sparrow that falls
He made the mountains and the seas
He's in control of everything
Of all creatures great and small
Chorus -
And He knows my name
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cry
He knows my name
When I'm overwhelmed by the pain
And can't see the light of day
I know I'll be just fine 'Cause He knows my name
Verse 2 - I don't know what tomorrow will bring
I can't tell you what's in store
I don't know a lot of things
I don't have all the answers
To the questions of life
But I know in whom I have believed
Chorus
He knew who I was when He carried my cross
He knew that I would fail Him but He took the loss
Chorus -
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cry

Isn't that precious? God knows my name!!!! Praise the Lord!
