Summer CRAZE for the Watson Family

We have SOLD the HOUSE!!!!! Praise JESUS! Our closing date is July 17. Pray that it all goes as planned. We are learning to trust and walk in God's timing and provision. He is good....ALWAYS.

As for my daughter...wow...she is growing up! Tori got braces on Monday. Her smile is so beautiful. She just gives me such JOY! Sometimes I can't believe that she is turning 13 already on the 18th....then again...sometimes I can't believe she is only 13. She is so much fun. So mature in her thinking. So kind. What a blessing!

The Brock man....we've had a great summer so far together. He cracks me up. Tori is off and about in her already way to busy social life....and Rob is working - so Brock and I are getting some quality time together this summer. He's a reading machine and - of course - loves his video games. I feel horrible that I did not get him in tennis camp this summer. We've made up for it, though, in plenty of west Texas fun in the sun.

Rob is loving his job. He is spending more time than ever there - which is a challenge sometimes - but it is such a joy to see him being about to work with vision and have such a team of visionary leaders to work with. He loves the staff. They meet for coffee several mornings each week and just enjoy one another.

The coming weeks will be quite eventful for the Watsons.....to Brady for July 3-5, Rob preaches on July 6th, then To DFW to pick up vans and settle things on the 6th-7th, back to pick up students and drive them BACK to DFW for the Rangers and Six Flags on the 8-9, then returning vans to DFW on the 10th.....I fly out to Austin on the following Monday for the PALS conference then I fly to meet the family in DFW on the 16th so we can close on the house on the 17th. We will celebrate Tori's birthday on the 18th in DFW then back to Midland to pack and leave for camp on midnight the next night on the 19th.....We will be at camp Red Cloud in Colorado for a week, return for 5 days then Rob and Tori leave for Creele, Mexico onAug. the 1st (our 16th anniversary) for a week long mission trip. We have a couple of days down before I return to school on the 15th......Man...summer is flying by!
