This past month I had the privilege of attending the Act
Like Men conference in Fort Worth, TX due to the generosity of an anonymous
church member. It was a whirlwind weekend, and stirred up a lot in me. I’ve had
some time to think about what I experienced, and sort through it. Since I had some strong feelings, I felt I should share with you, o anonymous internet reader! While there
was much that I enjoyed, there was some that tripped me up and really just
rubbed me the wrong way. So I'll start with that, since chronologically it is first, and go from there in what may be a 3-part series. Maybe. This may not be entirely organized and polished, but
this is a blog post not a book. I’m writing it from a more stream-of-consciousness
position, and will likely perform endless edits.

Our New Adventure: Wichita Falls, Oh My!
Hello world! The Scholz Klan is alive! Whoop, whoop! Here is the numbered list of what has happened this year:
I feel like I should at a number 10 just to round it out, but I cant think of anything. We have been so incredibly blessed to be here. Michael really enjoys his job, the boys and I are having fun, and we are starting to really get into the community! What nobody told us was how family focused Wichita Falls is. Despite the awful drought that has us on very tight water restrictions the town manages to have a lot for young families. It has been really neat how integrated the AF families are with the town, as well. I should say that even though there is no H-E-B here (I know! Heresy!), I LOVE my grocery store! Haha, I know that is really random, but when you go shopping with two children, and need to get in and out quickly, this store is at the top of helpfulness.
Well, I have got to go chase down a stinky toddler, but I will post more on what we have been doing in our adorable little cottage!
Tata!
