HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Well unfortunately the blog hasn't been updated in far too long. Anyway I finally got the pictures from wrestling up. As usual follow click the Battalion Pics link and find the Wrestling 08 album.

Hopefully you guys are all having awesome holidays, I know I am.

I am not usually an New Year's Resolution type of a guy but I was thinking about how we have had a couple bible studies this fall about the Word of God and how important it is in our lives and how we need to have a good knowledge of it to be able to discern right from wrong sometimes. So this year I am hoping to read the entire Bible. I found a reading plan that involves reading passages from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs each day. It amounts to about 3 chapters a day but because of the way it is broken up I think it will be easy. It could even be read a little in the morning and a little at night. i haven't totally decided yet but it will force me to spend some time reading every day. I am hoping that some of you guys will join me in this. I think it would be awesome if we could get a bunch of us to keep us accountable to read every day and to encourage us that we can do it even when we don't feel like it or are busy. We could even read it together with our Dads or sons, or spouses.

I know I am a bit late getting it posted up here but if you read this in the next couple days you could even catch up to where you should be or just start with whatever is there for that day. I have the readings posted for the whole month January and I will do my best to get then next month posted well ahead of time so that you don't miss anything. A great way to do it would be to set the blog as your internet homepage and then each day you would be able to see the passage you need to read right away. If you guys are going to do this post up here so that we can see who all is in.

First Battalion is next week (January 6) see you all there. Bring your verses I hope you used at least some of your holidays to memorize.

Winter camping is what you think it is. We are not sure what weekend it will be but it will be the end of Feburary or the begininning of March we will let you know very soon when. If any of you want come start think of what you want to bring to survive.
