Ty Pennington & the Extreme Makeover crew are working nearby...

Learned yesterday that a local family is getting a new home from Ty Pennington & The Extreme Home Makeover crew. The house is 1.1 miles from us as the crow flies, about 2.3 mile drive.

You can learn about the family and the project HERE.

Nephew Brett's Baptism

This past weekend Mary and I made a whirlwind trip to San Antonio to see my nephew Brett's baptism. I thought I would share some pics & video for the family that were not able to attend. The service was outdoors and I was a little far away so the quality is not great, but for those that were not there it is better than nothing.

By the way, it was about 59 degrees when Sherman and Brett got in the water (and yes, it was Sherman that baptized him)...

First the video.



And now the photos...

Does a Church have DNA?

Most people I know will say they love their church because of the music, the kids programs or something like that. All of that is great at Northwood, but this video shows our DNA, which is why I love Northwood.

Street With A View

Have you ever used the 'Street View' feature in Google Maps? Have you ever seen anything strange there? Would you believe there is a street with all of the following things occurring over the span of about 10 blocks?
  • A person climbing out of a window on a rope made of bed sheets
  • A parade with marching band
  • A mad scientist
  • A garage band practicing
  • A marathon
  • A person wearing a ham costume
  • A giant sculpture of a chicken
  • A sword fight
All of this happens on Sampsonia Way in Pittsburgh. If you want to learn more go to StreetWithAView.
