Great video, Great Message

I came across this video and it has powerful message. I dont care if you like rap music or not, we need to support artists like this, they are missionaries.
Listen and be convicted:)

Pictures from Iraq

My Friend Ken Stenka is currently serving our country in Iraq. A HUGE thank you to all who are serving and Fighting for us! GOD BLESS YOU, We are praying for you!

He emailed us some neat pictures, so I wanted to share them. There are 2 sets of pictures, Here are his emails:
Hello to ALL!

I have been taking a few photos and thought that I might share a few with all that care. If not then delete works nicely also. I thought it may give you some idea of the conditions over here. Then again maybe not as most of them have my ugly mug in them. I haven’t had much luck sending them in the past but I will continue trying. Their not very descriptive but I do what I can and I hope you enjoy them. Thinking of you all and praying that we are home in December. Thanks for all the letters and for staying in touch!

Hello again

After sending pictures the other day, I had the privilege of visiting one of Saddam’s palaces. It’s located just a stone throw away from Baghdad and it was very impressive. I have never seen a bigger chandelier in my life. All the marble must keep the place cool because it was hot out and didn’t notice it inside at all. It is surrounded by water and has several smaller little islands with, what looks to be other living or smaller stone buildings. The guys that are with me are from my company and we got pretty lucky to get in that day. The military does use the facilities but I’m unable to say for what. The whole experience was quite overwhelming and very impressive. I’m sorry the pictures really don’t do it much justice but once again I really just want to share. Have a great week!!

Camping

We just had a great time camping at the Long Pine SRA over the weekend. Since I was young Long pine has been a traditional camping spot for the Kliewer and Green families over Memorial Day weekend. It has grown to include the Konrad family and the Ehlers family over the years. The camp ground is primative with no electricity or running water(there is one hand pump), but it is beautiful and a lot of fun. I will put up some pictures soon. On Memorial day we packed up in the morning and then went to Chambers to put flowers on Mom and Dads grave, and see the cemetery. It was very nice, and Grandpa Troxel Greens Flag(wwII) was the first one in the row. Mom and Dads grave looked very nice, with lots of flowers and some other neat things. Angie and I are planning on planting some flowers that will bloom every year by the headstone.

kites

We flew kites today. Hannah has one of those triangle ones that she got for her birthday last year. The other two didnt have kites, and when we were grocery shopping the other day they found these 99cent old school diamond kites. I took them out of their package, and lets just say its been a while since I put one of those together:)
They had these tiny little tails that I knew werent going to cut it, and to get them to fly well I ended up with about 15 feet of ripped up old dress on one, and bunch of ribbon stuff that Angie found on the other.
We were just getting them to fly decent when the wind just STOPPED. Hannahs kite, which flys with very little wind, just slowly floated almost straight down, and the others dropped like a rock. It was strange. Im sure we wont have to wait long for more wind, this is Nebraska after all:)
