Hello Twenty-six, I’m Stevan.

Nice to meet you.

I hope you still know my friend Fourteen.

We left this afternoon for Marion for our friends’ wedding at Lakeview Wesleyan. Derek Carpenter married his bride, Christi this afternoon. It was a nice wedding, though I liked ours more! (I was a part of ours, ya know)

After the wedding we enjoyed visiting with Jess’ sister, Jaymie for a few hours before heading back to Warsaw via Wabash and a stop at the Wabash Donut Shop with our friends Phil & Steph – who will be married this December!

A fun day was had by all.

Pictures of the day are available here.

I just got done with a unique visit to Yellowstone National Park.

What?

Yep! I just watched Old Faithful errupt with dozens of others!

It brought back MANY memories of 3 of the best summer-months of my life – spent working, hiking, and living Yellowstone and surrounding areas.

How did I see Old Faithful errupt this morning? By visiting her webcam! Check it out!

I would be going against all that is holy if I didn’t share “with the world” the latest blessing that came to the Stevan and Jessica Sheets household.

Two weeks ago I went to Walmart to get an oil change and get my tires balanced and rotated. The oil change went fine, but they wouldn’t balance or rotate my tires due to extremely low tread on all four tires – due to the wear of driving with an out-of-alignment car.

I was a bit dismayed about the situation – knowing that I’d need to spend about $200 to get 4 new tires and an alignment. Jess and I put it in the Lord’s hands – obviously, the best hands!

Yesterday we received a $100 gift and today we received ANOTHER $100 gift.

God’s blessings are never-ending and are “just-in-time”!

He knew that if those gifts came at a different time, we would have spent them on other “necessities”! (frisbees, toys, videos, etc.)

Today after we realized these two gifts, Jess and I were in awe of the Providential blessings of our Lord!

If you could see my arms right now, you would probably attempt to touch them to watch me scream like a little girl.

Jess did that without realizing the pain involved.

Screaming didn’t happen, however. Tears, though – DID.

Today I spent a majority of the day with my favorite Father-in-law in Bluffton. We shingled the entire West side of their shed. It was unbelievably hot today, I might add. Apparently the “heat index” was 110. Imagine being on the roof with BLACK, HOT shingles in that kind of heat.

I melted atleast 3 times. The heat felt through my shoes alone was enough to cause me to second guess whether I was still living or not!

It was an enjoyable time. Spending time with Dad Garrett is always a good time!

I think I’ll go pout about my arms now.
