Crew Martin

For Justin's 30th Birthday I planned a night out with friends at The Shout House. It is a local Piano Bar that we've never been to. We got the birthday package for him; table decorations, appetizers, sitting up close, etc. It was a lot of fun. And considering it was a Thursday night, it wasn't very busy at all! Justin got to sing songs he liked, make requests, and enjoy time with his friends. Some of us, including me, decided to head home around 10:00pm and Justin, Randy, Alex Durant, and Alex Troyer from Royal along with the Vollmar's headed downstairs and over to another bar that had a mechanical bull ride. They enjoyed trying to conquer the bull! In the end he had a great night, celebrated the big 30 with good friends and fun. It was a great time!

Friends that made the Party so much fun:
Eric and Jen Vollmar
Jon and Kelly Bohm
Alex Troyer
Alex Durant
Randy and Paula Sondreal
Zach and Lisa Shepherd

Quotes About Motherhood

A Prayer for Womanhood God, give each true good woman Her own small house to keep, No heart should ache with longing, No hurt should go too deep..... Grant her age-old desire: A house to love and sweep. Give her a man beside her, A kind man, and a true, And let them work together And love, a lifetime through, And let her mother children As gentle women do. Give her a shelf for dishes, And a shining box for bread, A white cloth for her table, And a white spread for her bed, A shaded lamp at nightfall, And a row of books much read. God, let her work with laughter, And let her rest with sleep. No life can truly offer A peace more sure and deep.... God, give each true woman Her own small house to keep ~Grace Noll Crowell~ ~~~~~~1934~~~~~~

And that is our privilege as mothers – to rear Godly men and women to influence the world for God. I Timothy 2 and 3 discuss qualifications and roles of men in the church, but in the middle of it all, there is an intriguing little verse, I Timothy 2:15: “But women will be saved through childbearing – if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.” -Paula Wilson

"I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life." Abraham Lincoln

"The joys of motherhood are rare and beautiful treasures that can be easily missed if we don't seize the opportunity to grab them." Ginger Plowman

"My mother was the making of me. She was so true, so sure of mw; and I felt that I had someone to live for; someone I must not disappoint." Thomas Edison
