Well as I sit in my living room, I can not help but realize that by this time in two weeks, I will be MARRIED!!!!!!! Yup, the time is near when Kadee and I will no longer be two but, one. As a younger person I guess I thought about this day. I mean i never had dreams about the perfict wedding but, non the less it is almost here. Can you remember when you were a student and it was like three or four weeks till summer break. Do you remember how time just slowed down to almost nothing, that is how I feel. from something like 285 days till now time has flown by but, now its like man it has only been two days come on!!!! Sometimes I try to think about how life will be after the wedding, am I going to leave the seat up, what about if this what if that. Then it hits me, shes going to be my wife, we will work it out. that is what you do when you are married, I am sure we will have little tifs now and then, but we will get by. To think when I get done with class and come home, she will be there. After going on work trips, she will be there. After the bad call or medical, she will be there. She might not beable to fix it every time but, just knowing that my bestfriend is home waiting for me is just fine with me.
So what else is up with me? My are is doing better, the physical therapy my surgen gave me to do is working very well. I can now do 15 shrugs, and lift my arm about half way up.(this is a good sign, because he wanted it to go up 3/4 way up for my next visit. 3 day before the wedding) So keep praying for the healing of my arm. School is going well, I have made some great new friends. Well that is it for now, I will see you all next time.

Three Weeks To Go
so I am sitting in the living room of Kadee and my new house and I can not help but think that in three weeks i will be married. The last two weeks have been well......very testing, everything from car drama, school, work and, the Fire Dept.
Well the good news is that the most of our construction is done at the house. Thanks to Kadee's family and some of my friends the ten plus jobs I had to do are pretty much done. Thank you to all who helped out, the last big job will be done today, being the new carpet Mary gave us. I would love to give you an update on the roof, but it has not rained after getting if fixed.(go figure) I should get some pics up to show you all progress from start to finish.
well as you all know I make the big bucks, so this month after paying out almost more than I made, why not have my car go in the shop to get fixed. As you can tell I was not to happy about that little set back. The good news is that it is fixed, the bad news is that well it was not free. Still in the midst of all I am reminded that The LORD gives and, Takes away blessed be the name of the LORD.
Last classes are still going well, I have made some new friends and hope to beable to bring them to church soon. Now I know that church wont save them but, getting them fellowship and around others might help to ease in the choise to follow Jesus. Continue to Pray that God use me in the places He has me in.

A New Week
Well hello everyone again, it feels like three weeks since I had posted last. Oh yea it was.
Well a lot has gone on, I moved out and in to my own place, school has started, Mom moved out, car drama, work and, fire stuff, so lets jump right in.
Kadee and I now have a home of our own. Granted it is just me and the dog till October 13th but, none the less its is ours. We spent the whole weekend and up till now helping my Mom to move out while moving us in. We now have a Kitchen and Bathroom. I am still sleeping on the floor in the living room but hey I am in college it happens. This Friday Dad Border comes down and we well he will be manly and I get to learn by helping in some house projects. It is nice to have such a Godly, handy,super sweet man to look up to as Dad Border. Even if I can take care of Kadee half as well as he has we will be in great shape. In no order we get to, fix a roof, kinda rebuild a room, plumbing(which next to hunting is my favorite time with Dad) and, some outdoor stuff. Not bad considering that I get married in like 37 days. I think that after all is settled down life at our house will be OK. There are a number of people that we will have over after awhile, so look for your invite. I have already started to get to know our fellow residents and hope to have good relationships and to use our home as a ministry to them. At least in my mind your house should be a ministry tool, in reality is it your house? Or is it another tool GOD has given you to do HIS work? Are there going to be times when we do not want people over, yea but I hope that as time goes on we will see HIS bigger picture and not shut people out. So consider that your first invite to seeing us, I love to cook, and Kadee loves to entertain.
School is in to its third week, and I can see why God has me in the classes I am in. The two Religion classes I have are well...............yea.(sorry I know that is not proper writing) Have you ever been in a class where you know the truth but can not say it? That is where I am at, I am only aloud to speak from an Academic stand point. That means when the Professor says that 2timothy 3:16 is false and proves that God did not write all the Bible I can not jump up and say,"What!!!!" "Are you kidding me?" Or that when you are told that ALL religions are OK and all people will be with God after they die I must once again refrain and try to find a way to Academically share the Gospel. The plus to all this is the fact that my classes know I am a Christian and can not figure out why I am not jumping in and telling them that they are all wrong and going to Hell. Well, that is because I have learned that that is what they want to continue to run from God. Just another uncaring, Hypocritical Christian telling them that they are wrong, and I will not. Who am I to look at someone and point out sin, who am I to cast judgment on someone, not me but Jesus. He is the one who came, rose for us. He is the one who WILL judge us for our lives, not me. I am just trying to get through life with out messing it up more that I already have. It is not up to us to condemn, but to offer redemption. Remember at on time you were Hell bound just as I was, and someone was caring enough to show you the way to Salvation. That is the only reason i can figure that He has me in these classes. I am with, Muslims, Atheists, Agnostics,Hindus,Buddhists and, more. What a great place to be, not in my comfortable world of all Born again friends but, with the people who need God the most, THE LOST. I hope that you will all be in prayer for me this semester, it is very hard being in these classes but, I serve a God so big that He and He alone can use me to change the lives of every student and the teacher in a single class time. I know this because He said it in HIS WORD, and he DOES NOT go back on it.
That is a brief look into my life this last week, it is pretty lame but, I manage. As the house comes along I will get some pictures to walk you all through the path of the KIDD's new house. That is it, just be in prayer for me and all the students. This is a great time to share the gospel and have lives changed forever. till next time see ya later gaters.
