Today when we woke up we were delighted to find it was cool enough to finally open the windows again.  It was glorious.  Tim was off and running early again today to help work on the new church and then worship team rehearsal and then back to the church again.  So I decided it was a perfect morning for a walk with the kids down to the bakery.  Yup.  We live 6 blocks from the bakery.  That’s dangerous, huh?  😉  And despite its close location I think this is the very first time we’ve actually walked there on a random morning.  Chloe rode her bike and thought it was the best thing ever.  Although coming back home UPHILL was not as thrilling for her… hehe…

I spent the day cleaning and getting things ready to have some church friends over for supper.  We had two families over–which also consisted of three younger kids–so everyone had a great time.  We grilled kabobs and watched a little Mythbusters and then watched the kids play games on the Playstation move.  Fun times.

Tomorrow we have another BBQ after church.  Did I mention that our current worship pastor is resigning?  I can’t remember if I did.  He’s awesome and we’ve loved having him but he’s decided that he can’t stay on after his 6 month internship.  We’re very sad about his decision to leave, but he’s taken on too much to handle everything right now–not only is he currently working on his Masters, but he’s also in charge of the traveling worship teams at Crown as well as the chapel coordinator.  So, that’s a lot to juggle along with being our worship pastor.  Kudos to him for seeing that he might burn out and stepping back now.   He’s also helping us look for a new person to fill the position and he’s even agreed to stay on and help play guitar for a while too–so it’s all good.  But it still doesn’t negate the fact that it’s painful to lose another worship pastor in less than a year.  But I digress:  tomorrow’s BBQ is to meet and greet a candidate for worship pastor.  So, hopefully it will go smashingly well.  🙂

After a little tweaking, Chloe’s new timeout bottles are going to work great.  I still have to superglue the tops shut (so no one accidentally drinks glitter/glue water–yuck!) and then I’ll take some pictures for you all to see.  They’re pretty cool, if I do say so myself!
