DeHart Update 8/29/06
It has come to my attention that "our" blog has become "my" blog of sorts and hasn't really contained any information about "us" and that totally defeats the purpose of calling our blog "deharts.blogspot.com." Cause right now, it's only "dan.blogspot.com."
Anyway, you get the hint. So, from now on, periodically, hopefully as much as I can, I am going to be updating about "us," the DeHart's. And, yes, this would be one of those posts.
Love you all...

- Vivian has started back at UNT and we found out, through a ton of exhaustive professor conversations and discussions with her counselor, that she will be student teaching (granted she can take summer classes) in a year from now. She is super-excited and thrilled to finally see a preverbial end-of-the-tunnel. She's taking 12 hours this semester and among those hours she is taking a night class that meets twice a week. With this revelation, we started to pray about how we were going to "make time for each other" with 2 nights basically being out of the question for spending any quality time together. The Lord has definitely been answering our prayers...as He has really provided for us in that area.
- I am still working hard as the graphic artist at Valley View Productions. I passed my 1-yr anniversary back in July and am now looking forward to everything slowing down a little around here. (May-October is our craziest time)
- We are still comfortably living in our apartment in Bedford and decided about 2 months ago that we are going to renew our lease another year when it comes up in February. With that decision, we went ahead and painted some of our walls to make the place seem less like an "apartment" and feel more like a home. If we can get our camera working, I will take some pictures of it and post it for you to see.
- We are both going through a Soul Mates Devotional and reading a book called "Sacred Marriage" that has really created some much-needed spiritual and emotional intimacy. If you are married and you are reading this, I would highly recommend the book "Sacred Marriage" by Gary Thomas, as it really breaks a lot of traditions and complacencies often found in marriages. The subtitle of the book asks, "What if God designed marriage to make us Holy more than to make us Happy?" It has really challenged our marriage in that it delves into how God created marriage for us to best learn about His Love and how we are to love like Him.
- We have consistently been attending 121 Community Church here in Grapevine and have really grown to begin calling it our own. In our journey to find where God wants us to serve Him, we were led to a variety of churches, and although we didn't have that "burning bush" type-of-miracle letting us know that 121 is the ULTIMATE place for us, we both find peace in that this is where He wants us right now.
Love you all...
