As i've said a number of times this accountablity is more for me than for anyone else. Some of you have chosen to participate in this. I always like to hear about what my friends and family are reading through.
I also admit i sometimes spend time doing what i should not be doing; like watching tv instead of playing with my daughter or surfing the internet for 30 minutes instead of reading a good Christian book, etc. My book list will continue to grow as i continue to grow in discipline. Sometimes that means getting a little less sleep or watching a little less tv, etc.
So here is the latest update of the stuff i am trying to read outside of Scripture... What have you guys been reading?

How is the book Girl Talk?--haha.
;-)
How are you guys doing? Emma has a horse show on September 15-16...maybe you guys could come up for that? Sunday the 16th probably doesnt work for you guys, but im pretty sure we could do the 15th...think about it.
We are doing fine...kittens everywhere, but we're surviving...
Joe
Girl Talk is a great book. Emma really should read it with your mom.
That would be fun to come for the horse show. Let me talk with my wifey.
How did you enjoy the Bears vs Colts game?
CK
two words...or one semi word...pre-season.
That would be a fun day if you guys could come...emma would love it!
We would probably celebrate the twins' bday that day as well since grandmothers and people will be there...hope you can come!
p.s. new report from ESPN. Lance Briggs just wrecked his 350k car and abandoned it...classy.
not to bug you, just wondering if you had talked to Mrs. Kolstad...and had Evie approve of it ;-).

I dont think it's going to work since i am scheduled to preach Sunday AM and PM plus my dad and brother are in town.
Sorry guys! Perhaps another time will work out.
