An Amazing Week!

God is so good, ALL the time. We have had such an amazing time at the Olympic Trials. Gabe swam his fastest times ever! The venue and the crowds were incredible. And the times of fellowship we had with friends was so encouraging! And all of you who were watching, cheering and praying with us made it such an overwhelming experience. Thank you all so much. I think the thing that is standing out to me so much this week are the opportunities God gave Gabe to be a light to others. Gabe really tried to take hold of every opportunity to share Christ with others. This is the mark that the Lord has allowed him to leave on the swimming world. I am so thankful to be his wife!! This has been an amazing week and we are so grateful! Today we are going to relax, enjoy Omaha (which has actually become one of my favorite places:) and go watch the Trials tonight together:) We can't wait to see all of you when we get home! Love you all!

Gabe and Staci,
It has been such a blessing to be praying for you this week! We are excited to hear specifics about how God was glorified, but for now are just blessed to know that He was! We feel so grateful to be a part of your lives (although not too much anymore), but we do truly treasure your friendship!

Staci, I saw the info on Gabe at your
sister's blog. What an amazing week.
It sounds like you have an awesome husband and I am blessed by both of your attitudes and your desire to just be a part of whatever God has for you! Your family is adorable!
