I can't believe I started this almost 2 years ago and this is the 3rd blog!! I think this year I better get ALOT better at this. 2010 has started off with so much going on in our family.
Russ and I have accepted the Youth Pastor position at Lighthouse Foursquare Church about a year ago and we are loving it. The young people we get to hang out with are some remarkable people. I think we are just where we are suppose to be...loving on, guiding, teaching and having a ball with these kids...oops, youth!
Nick has started his 4th semester at SRJC and has decided to enter the EMT program & Academy. He took a 1st Responder class last semester and LOVED it and did great in it. After that it was full steam ahead and now he's on his way to being an EMT with prospects of becoming a paramedic in the future. Nick is as well dating a lovely young lady he has known since 1st grade. Katie is in her second year at Davis University working on her verterinary degree.
Ash & Dan are, as many of you have been reading, in the middle of another journey in Dan's fight with cancer. Dan is in Stanford Hospital recovering from a 15 hour surgery he had on the 8th of this month. I have never seen 2 such strong, faith-filled, remarkable people as these two. Ash is in her last Semester at Biola University finishing her nursing degree and Danny is looking forward to finishing his credential studies to become a HS math teacher...yep, A MATH TEACHER...do you remember your high school math teacher? I think Danny will make his class nothing like what we remember. Please keep them in your prayers as they wait patiently for God to finish up what he is doing in Danny's body and let life continue as normal. Visit their blog for more info on they're journey footballandsthoscopes.blogspot.com.
One other really fun thing that is going on right now is that Russ' dad just moved in with us. he stayed with us for a bit this summer/fall and has now sold his house in Paradise and moved into our home with us. Russ, Nick and I are thrilled to have him here...as are our dogs...they now have a constant playmate. god has been so good to us and we continue to look forward to what else he is gonna do in us, through us and for us. I promise to be better at keeping you all updated on the happenings here with the Cliffords....I really will...you'll see. :D

Love you all,
Terry
