Who is the "Fetrow Team"?

The "Fetrow Team" actually refers to two groups of people.

The original Fetrow Team is my family. My husband Chris who is originally from Salem, Oregon, myself originally from Mount Vernon, Illinois, our son Taylor born in Landstuhl Army base, Germany, daughter Ashley born in Yuba City, California & daughters Caitlin & Courtney both born in Mckinney, Texas. As you can see our family team has traveled from and to many places to finally make McKinney, Texas our home. I grew up in a military family. So moving happened every 3-4 years. I understand the stresses and challenges associated with moving a family. Especially families with children. I moved 9 times living in 6 states and 2 countries. Since having a family of our own, Chris & I have moved 7 times, living in 3 different states and 2 countries. 



The other "Fetrow Team" currently consists of Chris & I in our Real Estate Business. Currently we have the wonderful opportunity to mentor and train two brand new agents! They are working with us on learning the ropes of the business and may be helping some of our clients from time to time as needed. I am so excited that Christine Killen & Tammy Williams are working with us in a wonderful business. We also consider the owners of RE/MAX Four Corners as part of our team as they are instrumental in helping us be all that we can be - David & Gaylan Kraft. We are so blessed to be part of a great team that is lead by Christ following people.

We love to serve others!

Amazed & in Awe!

Today my son told me that he was applying to be a part of Student Council at McKinney High School! This is my child that at one point wouldn't talk to anyone but his family and now he is stepping up to be a part of the group that leads out at the High School! I am so proud of how far he has come.

He also has such dreams and goals for his life despite the challenge he faces of Duchene Muscular Dystrophy. God has done such amazing things in his life.

I'm hoping my nephew some day has an amazing God story too. Just this past Monday while visiting my parents my nephew, Quentin, had a rapid onset of Type 1 diabetes. He was one very sick puppy. He was care flighted from the Sherman hospital to Dallas Children's and spent most of the day on Monday in the ER receiving continuous monitoring. My nephew accepted Christ last summer at VBS at my parents church. It was an amazing thing to see my dad baptise him in Lake Texoma. My prayer is that God will use this experience as part of "His" story. I also pray that this life change will bring my sister back to the church.

God can and will work in our lives - whether we want him to or not - the question is will you let him lead you? In letting God lead we can feel a great sense of relief knowing that He has his best planned for you and that this life we know is not the end but only the beginning.

My friend at "Laundry Woes" inspired me to blog tonight. It's the first blog I have done in a VERY long time and when I last blogged I hadn't done that many. But I think this will be the first of many to come.
