*Arrow's Birthday Presents*

June 2010

This post is special for Laurance, Donna, and Jeannine and Reuben. We wanted you to see Arrow open his presents.

* 3rd Month in Fort Mill (June 2010) *

Arrow found our sticky tab pen and was getting them all over his face.

The garden has grown in these last two months.

More growth.

My awesome brick path I made to get into our Fort Mill garden. We have to stone like paths leading into it. I love gardening.

The upper left door is the entrance to room 17 which is where Aysha and I will be living once we get up to Boone.

Until we get our prayer room done, we have been going from apartment to apartment worshiping and praying together. Kinda reminds me of the book of acts, as they went house to house breaking bread and seeking the Lord.

Boone college campus. This is the Stadium. We believe that this is one of the places Lord is going move for this city.

Arrow wants to be like Daddy and run the tiller. Tough baby.



We actually fed Arrow food, we figured he was sneaking filth and dog food off the floor anyway. We made it almost a whole year on exclusive breast feeding and he is healthy as they come. His first (official) food was green smoothie.


Alright Dad, this is Arrow's first experience with avocado. I think he liked it. Thank you so much for send us those avocados. They were great!


Arrow the warrior.


several weeks later . . . he is still a warrior.


Arrow is perfecting his ninja moves, all important qualities of a warrior.


Wrestling.


Got your foot.



Driving in the parking lot.



These are some of Arrow's very first steps. I actually got to see it myself. I was so happy.






As we were all getting ready to worship, Arrow did a little tribal beat.


A look into the life of a worship and prayer community. This is in Boone.

* Second Month in Fort Mill, (May 2010) *

We have spent our may going back and forth between Boone, NC and Fort Mill. The word of the Lord has been getting clearer and we are preparing to launch a house of prayer in Boone. This is on mother's day. I took Aysha out for a hike since that is basically her favorite thing to do.

Arrow liked it too.

A group of worshipers in the Fort Mill area had a special gathering to seek the Lord about launching a HOP in Fort Mill in the old Cause HOP. It was a very powerful night. We believe these people are the one to take over this base and steward the destiny here.

Playing in between the potatoes.

This is a beautiful hike up in Boone. There are some of the most amazing hikes in the east coast all over this area. Boone is like a little Oregon.

Arrow at the Mervins climbing the guitar. He has no concept of safety.

Arrow loves sitting with me in spinney chair when I am trying to get stuff done.

This is a worship gathering we had up in Boone. We are trying to have these larger ones once a week on Sundays, but we haven't fully transitioned up there yet.


Arrow in the Garden.


Arrow crawling through the potatoes.


Arrow just melts in my arms when I spin him in the chair.




Arrow is learning to stand for the first time.


Now he is getting better.


A short time later he was surfing on a guitar.


This is probably my favorite Arrow video. He is actually making farting sounds on Aysha's leg. She calls it blowing bubbles.


Caught red handed unrolling the toilet paper.


Surveying the damage!


Worship and fun in the Fort Mill, HOP.


Out on the Emmons' farm. Arrow went on his first bike ride with Jewel River.
