The Afternoon Lull

So I am kickin it at work right now. Not too busy, just chillin and have to do some work every once in a while. This probably means my phone will start ringing off the hook here any minute. I am currently jamming to the Family Force. I am still riding pretty high from their concert on Saturday. It gets me so pumped up about Ichthus. I have been spending a lot of time lately thinking about all of the projects I want to do. Here are some of the things that have been rolling through my brain. I need to purchase and install some closet organizers so that we can fit more crap in our closets. I want to build a little project and play table for Ephriam big enough to put his GeoTrax set on and play with his cars. I am also getting my ideas together for painting this spring and summer. That is all short term projects I hope. I have a lot of ideas for the basement too, but I can't afford to do it all at once and time is always a major factor. Ok, well my phone is starting to ring again. There is my thought of the day.

Slammin!!!!

Ok, so I typically update this everyday from work and occasionally on the weekends, but we have been getting killed at work. Its amazing what the change in Daylight Savings Time dates does to really screw up Microsoft Outlook Calendars. I haven't had much time to even think let alone Blog. So I will give you the recap of the last several days.

Saturday my wife and I were able to experience something we hadn't had in a very long time. A night with no children!!!!! Ephriam stayed with his Uncle Matt and Aunt Heather for the night and K.C. stayed with Grandma and Grandpa. We got to take our Youth Kids to a concert featuring Decyfer Down, Fireflight, Family Force 5 and Disciple. It was Faith's first concert in over 2 years because she didn't have to stay home with the children. It was a blast. We mainly went to see Family Force 5. They put on a pretty wild show. Disciple was really impressive too. I had never seen them live before. We had a good time and our kids had a blast. The only rough part of th night was that we had to stand in the freezing rain outside for 45 minutes before going in. There were 8 of us all huddled under an umbrella and icicles were forming on the ends. But it was well worth it.

Sunday we had to get the kids back and we ran the nursery during church this week. The family took naps after church and I cooked dinner and got ready for the Frontline Bible Study and Youth Group. We had a good crowd show up for the final week of the Dateability series. Thanks to Justin Lookado for the help on that one. It's good stuff and the kids had a good time with it. They especially liked the quizzes. YG seems to be in a very good development state right now. It took a while for things to recover from Winter break, but it is really starting to pick up. We have some kids that are really getting excited about things and I feel like they are really soaking up the teaching. So I am very encouraged right now with the way things are going. I pray it continues and that our ministry can very extremely effective. Its all about the PDYM - props to Doug Fields and the crew out at Saddleback.

Well, lets see what this week has in store.
