Jr. War Eagle Football Camp 2011



All the Dallas boys!!!  Great group of fellas!
 




















Every year Kenny runs a kids' football camp at Landmark for a week during the summer, and with the help of his coaches and some of the varsity players they always have an incredible week.  Here are just a few shots from camp this year.

The Urgent Life-Kenny Speaking at Dogwood


Kenny has been a head varsity football coach for 15 years now.  He has done an amazing job coaching and has many accomplishments in football, but the reason he's made the impact he has is because as much as he loves football, he loves those boys more.  His heart is continually to teach them about Godly manhood and what it looks like to live a life that has meaning...eternally.  He has taught classes such as Christian Worldview, Apologetics, and New Testament all these years, too, and usually has the opportunity to speak at least a few times a year at churches, retreats, etc.  A couple of months ago our pastor asked him to speak at our church for the first message in a series on evangelism.  It's not often I get the chance to have a copy of Kenny speaking/preaching but this time I do.  I wanted to share it on my blog here for others to see.

Let me just say, that this man lives his life with great purpose every day.  That's really the heart of this message.  I want you to know that if you take the next half hour to sit down and listen to these words it will impact your life, and my prayer is that it helps you slow down and realize how short our time here really is...and what really matters.

Mud Day and Family Fun!


Mud Day...aren't the most fun times usually not the ones we plan?  Last weekend we spent most of the day working in the yard, working on the garden, and just playing outside.  These mud pictures sord of sum up what the end of the day looked like!  This one of Z looking up at the camera is one of my all time favorites!  Love it! 

Jake and Caleb had already gone in and showered before the mud games started, or I'm quite sure they would have joined in, as well! Here are some more pics from mud day:





SO glad summer has arrived!  I added a collage below of some recent pictures from playing & and working outside, going to the park for lunch after church, and just hanging out together!  Looking forward to a great summer!  Life is sweet! (:
