Today Jeff was preaching at church! It is a neat opportunity that he gets more often now that he is ordained! It was suppose to be an eventful day during second service because of some people wanting to cause a scene, but after much prayer--specific prayer--thankfully nothing out of the ordinary happened. That was a VERY good thing. I was so distracted the entire time thinking about what was going to happen that I really don't know how his sermon went, but I am sure he did a good job.
Then we went to lunch at this place where Pastors get to eat free! Well, even better than that, someone from our church paid for our lunch all together! That was way awesome. Thank you Watson family! What a neat thing...and just when I was thinking there weren't good people in this world :) (see a couple posts down if you don't know what I am talking about).
Then, it gets better...
I was coming home after dropping Jeff back up at the church and found upon my driveway...
wouldn't it be cool if I said there was a new car...
there wasn't :) but that is okay, because it was the next best thing....
someone, so graciously, took our dead tree and hauled it off to goodness knows where.
Y'all...really!? That is unbelievable. I have been begging Jeff for OVER A MONTH to do SOMETHING/ANYTHING with that eye sore/mess/dead tree (from the ice storm) from our front yard. It was awful in EVERYway...and now...its GONE. Poof...just like that...gone.
I can barely contain my excitement!
And the best part is, I have no idea who did it. That is good...good people, good deeds, good-ness! I love it.
Thank you whoever you are! Thank you for being nice. I will pay this forward...(let you know how I do that)

That's awesome!
Hi Courtney..I have enjoyed reading your blog. I am so glad that your tree is gone. These past few years, I have come to see how amazing and wonderful the body of Christ is through the hearts of others minstering to our family. People love to serve and help others out of their love for Jesus. I am glad someone was able to love on your family with a very practical need.
Jeff continues to be used by God to share truth. I love how real he is up front with people challenging them in love. I don't know what the disturbance was about this morning in second service but I do know that God has a way of letting His word get across no matter what others try and do. God Bless you all!
How fun Courtney! I have gotten caught up on your blog again. It is fun to read! I am home and would love to get together with you. We are headed out to visit family this week, but will be back. I love how you are enjoying your babies too! Hope to see you soon!
