LOTS of Time in Ft. Worth with My Fam!


In January & February I spent a lot of time in Ft. Worth with my Wells family and it was totally and completely a God-ordained time for me! When I'm with Kent, Brooke, and the girls I can be "me!" I can stay in my PJ's all day, hang out on the couch, talk to Brooke, sew with Brooke and just get back in bed at night the same way I crawled out of it that morning! In between, I cook and play with the girls, talk and laugh with Kent, and feel loved and at home from all of them. I ALWAYS leave Ft. Worth feeling refreshed, relaxed and typically NOT ready to leave!

Brooke and I typically always go on our fabric hunt to
Downtown Dallasand this last time we found a great new place with
TONS of Minky Fabric in ALL different patterns. Our sewing project
was pillowcases and we had a BLAST! Once made we monogrammed away! Kent even begged for one...it was great! The girls LOVED theirs and Brooke is a sewing machine now making pillowcases for everyone!


The Sunday after the Winter Olympic Opening Ceremony the Children's Ministry at First Euless challenged the kids to give a Gold Medal to someone who has taught them, loved them and is there for them to "honor" them. Abby came out of Sunday School and said, "Aunt Holly, I want to put this Gold Medal around your neck." Brooke and I weren't sure what she was doing besides just giving me this cheap, plastic medal on a ribbon until she explained what they learned that morning. It was such a sweet moment!
My heart was BLESSED!
I sure do love my Abby Girl!


SNOW in Texas and A LOT of it!
My goodness....there was 12 inches of snow in February and
it stayed around for 3-4 days! I had SO much fun with the girls
playing in it and just had to get a picture of me in my flip flops!
It was UNREAL driving to Ft. Worth with snow on the ground on both sides of IH-35!


While in Ft. Worth, Kent had his Rev Weekend (Disciple Now) and there were 475 kids and adults involved!
It was amazing and as his "lil sis'"
I absolutely LOVE watching my big bro in his element!
He is, by far, one of the MOST amazing Student Pastors EVER and
knows how to reach students in today's generation.
I'm so proud to sit back and watch him minister!
He's FUN! He's REAL! And he LOVES students enough to
tell them the truth in LOVE and kids lives are changed because of it!
Joshy being his co-hort is a blessing!
To watch Joshy "behind the scenes" always teaches me!
His techie-ness adds so much to ETHING they do and it's simply AMAZING! Kent's on the stage but Joshy is making everything "cool" happen with media!
