Mini Spring Break















Well this week is spring break for Bry but not me :0( Sad I know but we both had last Friday off so we along with my mom and Dad rented a cabin in Mountain View, Arkansas on the White River. Well let's just say we got super lucky. With 12 inches of rain in one day and previous rainy days our cabin resort was the only one in the area to not be completely flooded. When I say completely flooded I mean water was over the tops of them, some places you couldn't even see the roofs. It was weird to see a 5 wheel camper and boats stuck way up in the trees from where the water just swept them away. Even house where swept off their foundations. Well the river crest in Augusta the other day and coming to work this morning people had their cars park along 64 next to the boats to get them back and forth from their house to their cars. The weekend was fun but nows it back to work for a couple of days then off to my spring break!!!!

New Song- I Saw God Today

Just walked down the street to the coffee shop
Had to take a break
I've been by her side for 18 hours straight
Saw a flower growing in the middle of a sidewalk
Pushing up through the concrete
Like it was planted right there for me to see
The flashing lights, the honking horns
All seemed to fade away
In the shadow of that hospital at 508
I saw God today.

Chorus:
I've been to church, I've read the book
I know he's here but I don't look
Near as often as I should (Yeah I know I should)
His fingerprints are everywhere
I just slowed down to stop and stare
Opened my eyes and man I swear
I saw God today.

Saw a couple walking by
They were holding hands
Man she had that glow
Yeah I couldn't help but notice she was starting to show
Stood there for a minute taking in the sky
Lost in that sunset
A splash of amber melted into shades of red.

Chorus:
I've been to church, I've read the book
I know he's here but I don't look
Near as often as I should (Yeah I know I should)
His fingerprints are everywhere
I just slowed down to stop and stare
Opened my eyes and man I swear
I saw God today.

Got my face pressed up against the nursery glass
She's sleeping like a rock
My name on her wrist wearing tiny pink socks
She's got my nose, she's got her mamas eyes
My brand new baby girl
She's a miracle
I saw God today...
