Monday Funday: Our neighbor's pool

It's summertime!

For the Allisons, it's a time to pause and thank God that we have neighbors who have a really nice inground swimming pool.

Someday we're hoping to meet our neighbors and to get to know them.

Until then, one of the kids will always be a lookout.

I know what you’re thinking now: “Wow, Bill and Stacy are way too young-looking to be grandparents.” I know, right. (*wink) Don’t worry. Three days after we found out that we were going to be grandparents, I went to an REO Speed Wagon concert with Aubrey and Sadey. Take that old age! #OldGuysRock  Bad to the bone biker chi

Note: One of our best disciplemaking friends from Wisconsin connected us to this pastor in the state of Washington via Cadre's book, The Disciplemaking Genius of Jesus . In the note below, I've taken the liberty to highlight in red some of the most cogent, beautiful, and transformative acts of God .
