SORRY JOSH!

How About them Cowboys!


Just a quick note; It was a good day in COWBOY COUNTRY. My father and brother in-law went home with their heads down. With all the trash talking, one team come out on top. At the end of the day; the Cowboys had their way with the fish!
Bring on the BEARS!!

Naked Sunday!


The start of the naked pastor series went very well. We had some issues with our Mac, but it came together. Vicky and I are very excited with what God is going to do with this series. It's going to be awesome.

I can't leave out my little guys. The cutest boys every. Daddy loves you guys.

I must thank God for blessing me with the best student group in the world. They are the best!! The R & B gang gave me a birthday cake, birthday cards, and a UM cap for my birthday. Ceasar# 1; thanks for the DVD! I'll show it on Sunday. I was also proud to wear the old fart ribbon that my kids gave me. I truly love this group with all of my heart. That was not all that happened; I was also given a surprise birthday party by my beautiful wife and hosted by my beautiful step-sister Patty.

It Happened!


I can’t believe it happened! Today I am now an old man. Today I had a birthday! You my ask yourself; what is he crying about? Well, I turned thirty today. The big 30. September was always one of the months that I looked forward to. Not anymore. From now on, it’s nothing but hair loss, name calling, and memory loss.
I know you must be asking yourself, name calling? Yeah! Name calling. You know, Old Man, Old Geezer, and who can’t forget Grandpa!! Yes, that’s right; it’s all down hill from now on. I guess I just have to suck it up!!! Oh well, Thank God I still have a HOT wife!!!!!
Let me tell you a little about her. Not only is she hot! She is also amazing. She is an awesome Mom and an awesome wife. Here is just of many stories about my best friend. >


About three years ago, I was hit by a drunk driver. (I’m trying my best not to lose it right now.) She became my strength, my support, and my care giver. She did every thing. With the man tears coming down my face right now, I thank the almighty God for her. She did it all. God gave her the strength and she cowgirl-ed up. I love this woman. I can't believe that my loving God has blessed me with the honor of taking care of her. Baby, if you are reading this; I love you. I love you with all of my heart, and I thank God that I am able to enjoy my thirtieth birthday with my two boys, but most importantly with my best friend. I love you.

Extreme Makeover Lima, Peru

This is the e-mail from my Father-in-law, Derwin Brigham to my Suegra (Mother-in-Law) writing about last night when they revealed the "brand new" orphanage to the girls in Lima.

Well this is our last day in Peru. I think I'm the only person from our team up at this time (7:30). They all get to sleep in. The sun woke me up. I ate breakfast and thought I'd send you one more e-mail.
After church yesterday we went directly to the orphanage and did our finishing touches. We had to be ready by 5:00 and then by 7:00 they brought in the girls. It was so exciting. the little girls went crazy and the older ones cried. Of course I did too, along with everyone else on our team. I watched as they opened their gifts to see which one was the one we bought our gift for. I took many pictures to share with you. So at one point I went up to her (Carolina) and told her I had given her that gift. She was so grateful. What a blessing. Then they took the girls to their rooms. I wish you could have been there. I'm crying now just thinking about it. They couldn´t believe it. One 16 year old girl spoke English and she just laid back in her bed and said, "Oh, there is so much room, and so soft!" Well, the revealing of the home went on for about an hour more and then we had to leave. The caretaker of the home spoke to us as a group and expressed her feelings. I cried again. She thanked God for all the work we had done and I heard the fulfillment of 2 Cor. 9.(the ending verses). Finally on the way out the girl we gave our gift to, Carolina, came up to me speaking through a translator, and ask for my e-mail so I gave it to her. I think by then she had time to read your note. So, what ever you said must had touched her heart.
Well today we get be tourist and to go to the market place. Then about 3:00 we have to be at the airport and it won´t belong we´ll be headed home.
All my love to you,

Derwin
