You Read It Here!

For most people purchasing a television would not be a big deal, but for the Vaughn household it is!

I have been married to the same guy for almost 30 years and this is the very FIRST time he has EVER shopped for a TV. Every other one-eyed demon (as he affectionately calls them) we have ever owned, was only because my folks purchased them for us.

My second surprise came when we hooked up the television. How many digital channels does one person need? I've never seen so many available channels! It was like a whole new world had opened up to us!

Technology sure has come a long way; sometimes it is just plain hard to believe.

Looky, Looky What Steve Spotted

Yesterday, while we were working in the garage, Steve calls me and says, "Hey, you want to see a snake?" SERIOUSLY!

Of course I did! Steve found the snake coiled up in the yard. Every time we got near it, the snake would stick out its tongue to smell his surroundings.

The snake finally had enough of us watching it, so it began to slither away. The snake was at least two feet long. That is probably one of the longest garden snakes I've seen since we have lived in this house.

I don't mind seeing a snake, as long as it is in the grass and not in my garage or house!

WA State Convention

Last Friday and Saturday, Steve had the privilege to go to Tacoma and participate in the Washington State Convention.

Steve, along with Jim, Levi and Tim were all elected as delegates to represent our district. The men walked away with even more understanding of the political process and really enjoyed the overall experience. I really appreciate their willingness to be involved in the process and their ability to comprehend what is at stake. Thank you so much for representing our district, and the constitution!

Maybe one of these men might be the President of the United States one of these days...you never know. :)

PiT Exchange

During the month of May we had the privileged of getting to know a young man from Leighigh Valley Baptist Church. Ben was lent to BBC, and while he was here he worked with our SPGs on video recording and also participated in many of the ministry outreaches of our church.

We were able to take him out for a couple of meals during his stay and we enjoyed getting to know him. We especially appreciate his love for the Lord and his desire to want to serve him on the mission field. He is quite the young man.

Not only is he personable, but God has blessed him with instrumental talent! Benjamin plays the piano, the trumpet and the ocarina. The last Wednesday in May he played a special with Alyssa and Christopher Hower. Below is a picture of the trio playing that evening.



A blessing indeed!
