New Blog...Try It Out!

Overflo has been doing some tweeking over the past few days and I think we have landed on something. Overflo has now switched our blog to http://www.theoverflo.wordpress.com/. It is easier to use as well as navigate. We are also now able to match the look along with Overflo’s web site at http://www.theoverflo.com/. Enjoy…

Nothing Better In The World...

Outside of my salvation found in Christ, there's nothing better in this world that having our first child. You probably already heard, but if not...Davis Anderson Peters was born on Thursday, March 12 at 2:52pm weighing 8lbs. 14oz. and 21.5 inches long. Laura and Davis are doing well. They were able to come home from the hospital on Sunday and we've been enjoying every moment at home! I'll go ahead and apologize now because you may get tired of hearing about me being a daddy!

Well, I am sure you will meet him soon, maybe even at Parkview Celebrate on Thursday if Laura and Davis are up to it!

Speaking
of Parkview Celebrate, I hope to see you out this Thursday at 7pm as we join with all of Parkview for a special service where this family dedication, communion, and baptism. There's at least 4 students getting baptized too! Also, if you have signed up to help at the Spaghetti Dinner, be here at 4:30pm. And if you haven't signed up, come on out. We could use your help. Don't forget to look sharp. Black pants and white shirts. See you then.

Gotta get back to work...
