Visit From A Friend



This past Sunday we were treated to a visit from our long time family friend Lynn Fields also known as LA LA to the Dickens family. Lynn has been such a part of our family for so long that when she comes to visit it is like a family member dropping in. Lynn and her husband Eldon live in Spring Hill, Tennessee and as you can see in the pictures have a precious daughter named MacKenzie. Is she a doll or what? Lynn and her dear family are a perfect example of God's faithfulness in answering prayer. Lynn prayed for a wonderful husband and baby for so long and God was so gracious to answer her prayers.

Shootin Hoops!



A few weeks ago TJ began playing Upward Basketball at a local church in the area. It has been a blast for all of us. He plays every Saturday morning at around 8 am. He practices with the rest of his team for about fifteen minutes and then they have a real game. He tries so hard but has a difficult time shooting the ball hard enough for it to reach the goal each time. He is getting better however. We recently purchased him an ajustable basketball goal, and as he has practiced he has gotten stronger and made several baskets on his own. His dribbling has gotten much better too! I am not sure but I think he is being scouted by some local college teams!
