Come on August!!!


There are a few things in life that I love above everything else.... my family of course, friends, knitting, Beauty & The Beast.... & STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN!!!!!!! I adore this man & have been one of his biggest fans since as long as I can remember... even when he sported the mullet in years past!

So how excited was I when Erica called me yesterday with "I've got some fantastic news".... she found out that on our Women of Faith trip in August.... HE'S A GUEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOO - HOOO!!! Now, I love Women of Faith conferences so much anyways & this will be the first that I've seen my guy at! I've got to get a "ticker" thing now so I can count the days!!!!

I was trying to figure out how many times I've seen him in concert or at events... I honestly have lost track - how sad is that! I just think SCC's humbleness & love for his family & our Lord is amazing - & his family amazes me too -I love to follow Mary Beth & all the kids as well.

I just know his story at WOF is going to be heart wrenching if he talks about Maria & the accident - which I'm sure he will.... WOF always requires kleenex anyways - I'll need an extra package!

Now, I have to wait until August! But dang, Christmas came around so fast - August will probably be here before I know it!

My son LOVES SCC as well. The first song that he ever had as his own (you know something I didn't push him towards ~~ not that I would do such a thing =) was Dive. And to this day, still loves it. If it comes on the radio, it is jam session in the car ~~ I'm diving in, I'm going deep, Okay I need to go listen to me some SCC now.

Love you friend,
Dawn

PS Knitting + dawn = diaster !! but still pressing on =)

That's awesome! Sha and I get to go this year because my youngest son, Kyle, is getting married August 1st. We're usually in Florida that weekend so the wedding is going to free us up to go to WOF this year. I've missed it so much the last few years. I can't wait!

I haven't been to WOF in years, but was always blessed when I went. SCC will be amazing and will no doubt have a WORD for you all after all they have been through. Makes you want to hurry through summer, doesn't it?

Oh my gosh! I have long been a fan of SCC. I saw the interview his family did on the Larry King Show, and it was quite the testimony! Lucky you!

I am also a big SCC fan! He has written so many amazing songs! What an awesome opportunity you are going to have to hear him.

Women of Faith Conference AND Steven Curtis Chapman -- It doesn't get much better than that!
