From David Trask, this picture from this afternoon in Paducah, KY.  It's grandson Steven Curtis Chapman and son Herb Chapman visiting and singing for Grandmom Chapman.

Later tonight, in a slightly larger venue... Steven takes the stage in the town he grew up in with Michael W Smith for a sold out show and the final night of The United Tour.

Homelife Magazine Cover girls

Check out the cover girls on Homelife Magazine this month. I don't recall the exact timing surrounding this article, but i believe it is another example of the family keeping commitments made, even in difficult circumstances.

A sweet article on God's love for orphans. Interviews completed before the loss of Maria and photos knocked out day of People Magazine shoot.

Just saw this online. I believe it is all true.

A Beautiful Wedding

(I'm getting some comments here so clarifying...)
My decision here... I am going to wait on the bride and groom, and allow them to post if they'd like to. They are not the public figures... the bride's Dad is.

So no in depth blogging on the wedding on Saturday. No photo to share for now. I will give you these tidbits... It was a small and private affair. The weather was perfect, and it was incredibly beautiful. Emily looked amazing. "How do bride's do that?" I asked my wife. : ) Tanner was looking sharp as well. Perhaps we can convince Emily to share more details and a photo or two when they return in a few weeks from the honeymoon. No promises, no rush. Congratulate them here. : )

I saw Steven briefly... I've missed him during the wedding block, which ends tomorrow. See you Tuesday we promised.

Final Rehearsals for The United Tour were up and running yesterday. Do you have your tickets? Do you have your gear? Live blogging from yours truly on the road begins Thursday and runs through the weekend. : ) In the meantime, Pushing a tour out the door!

PS The work is a little easier today thanks to Millie. Thanks for the love! : )
