September Already!?!?!?!

First off, I apologize to all my adoring fans who have been sitting at home and waiting patiently this last month for me to write a new blog. A lot has happened since my last blog. School has officially started, and with that it means lunch with students, football games, softball games, and much more. It gets kinda hectic trying to manage 6 different schools and a group of home schooled students. But I wouldn't trade it for anything, I have an amazing group of students here at Oak Grove, and it is amazing to watch them grow.

A couple weeks ago we had a huge outreach at the park in Drumright. We estimate we had nearly 700-800 people come to the park to enjoy free food, prizes, and games. The awesome thing is that they heard the gospel as well. We had Richard Hight, the chalk artist, come and work his magic. He did a chalk drawing of Jesus and then finished the night with a sculpture of Jesus which afterwards he told the story of Jesus. There were about 10-15 people who came forward to accept Christ...it was awesome. Even better we did a great job of getting information from all the people that showed up and were able to go and talk to them personally at their home.

Here is a picture that Richard Hight did at Edison Middle School in Drumright.

This past weekend I attended my first football game in Norman. A family that attends my church had an extra ticket and invited me to come along, and how could I say no! It was pretty cool, I have been to many football games and even a few OU football games, but nothing can compare to an OU game in Norman.

Well once again Fantasy Football is here again, and this year I had the privilege of selecting 1st!!! And with my 1st selection I chose 'Captain Butt Chin' himself Tom Brady. I thought long and hard about this and decided to go with Brady because of the season he had last year. BOY DID I BLOW IT!!!! Or maybe I should say he (Tom Brady) blew it, his left knee to be exact! He is out for the whole 2008 season. 1st Draft Pick scored me a total of 3 points for the whole season, way to go!!!

So now I am in the process of finding a new QB, but on a positive note, the rest of my team did great and helped me to smash my division rival Justwannawin, 89-62. Not bad for only getting 3 points out of my QB (my opponent had some key injuries as well, but this isn't his blog so I'm not going to talk about them!).

Well I hope everyone is doing great, I truly do miss everyone. If you are ever in the area or just feel like getting out and driving, come on over to Cushing and pay me a visit. Until next time.
