Dathan played during the ceremony. Here is doing a soundcheck. That’s his wife. He’s an amazing accoustic guitarist. He wrote a song for the wedding.

Sam’s first haircut.

By the way, I can hook you up.

Back in 2005 we took the Myers Briggs personality instrument (they told us not to call it a test, because it’s not). It’s interesting to look back. For those of you not familiar with the Myers Briggs and would like to check it out, here is a link: http://www.personalitypathways.com/type_inventory.html

Here were our results (drum roll please):

Ryan = ISFJ
I – Intraverted
S – Sensory: this means I’m empirical. I want to taste it, touch it, see it, before I believe it.
F – This apparently means that I’m more feelings oriented than thinking . . . who knew?
J – This basically means that I like things orderly. I like to control my surroundings.

Amanda = ENFP
E – Extraverted
N – Intuitive, she can sniff things out, without solid evidence.
F – See above.
P – Go with the flow, whatever happens, it’s all good.

How Sophia gets around the apartment complex:

Samuel is none too happy about the recent turn of events.

My two best girls looked beautiful at the wedding.

Chris and Dorothy Wilson moved from Mid-America student housing to Chatanooga, TN a few weeks back. I know this for sure because I helped them load a 28′ Penske truck and then a 14′ Penske truck. We were blessed with amazing weather (85 and overcast) for Memphis in July.

Transition, like I mentioned before, is a part of seminary life. Folks are here for a few years in preparation to be somewhere else. However, just because this place isn’t permanent (not that any place on earth is) doesn’t mean that deep relationships and roots aren’t developed.

One of the more amazing things about the Wilson family is that they had five kids all under five years old! Dorothy is definitely a super mom. Chris graduated from MABTS with a Master of Missiology. You can listen to him tell a story in Dr. May’s Chronological Bible Storying class here.

Chris will be under a missions mentor for a year in Chatanooga. Then, they plan on seeking appointment with the International Mission Board.

[That's Chris with the Veggie Tales tie.]

Bellevue Baptist Church is large. They are able to do some cool stuff because of there size. And by ‘stuff’ I am referring to an off-the-chizzy fireworks display a few weeks back to celebrate the 4th. Fifteen thousand people attended.

My sister (center) and Jason (right) spent the week prior to their wedding in a huge house, on a mountain, with friend and family. Awesomeness.

The Clinton Presidential Library was free on the 4th of July. Having never been there, we took full advantage. We even talked to the Nixons!
