Sunday News and a Cute Video

Another week has started and the three of us decided to head on up to Fairfax again for church. I am really enjoying this church and am thankful for it even though it is a drive for us. There are people that drive from southern Maryland to attend, and we also found out that there are several other families that travel up from Fredericksburg. This church is part of the Sovereign Grace association. Much like Trinity in Amarillo has several churches that have planted off it, so does this church. Today they announced that they are planting a new church in 2009 in Fredericksburg! Yay!!! The church itself is very warm and welcoming and I really can see all of us fitting right in. I am impressed with the desire that the entire body has for outreach and there really seems to be a servants attitude with everyone we have met so far. I have really felt the Spirit of the Lord move in the entire service and it was soo nice to sit back and absorb the Word of the Lord and not have to be somewhere to check on nurseries etc. While I do see me getting involved in the children's ministry at some point, for now I am hungry and I need to be fed....


On Friday, I found a posting on Craig's List for a computer desk. I called and the couple was moving and was going to be giving away the desk. We arranged to pick it up today in Arlington. Again, I totally lucked out! There is not a mark on it, very heavy, and on wheels. It is very modern in design and I feel very blessed that they chose us to take this desk. We gave away so much stuff before the move, it is nice to get a little of it back.

This is the desk we got today......I just realized the picture is crooked behind it... please ignore. It has a filing cabinet and several shelves for stuff....I pretty sure I can fill it up with stuff in no time. I also picked up a couple of glass topped desks yesterday. I am going to use one in the basement and the other I will most likely free cycle. I am still on the lookout for some bookcases and a recliner or two.

This is just a cute video clip of some kids in the sprinkler...Enjoy!

Very funny video... and good use of the word "kid". Anyway, glad to hear that you guys have a good church... although I can see that the hassle of getting there is a problem. But, heck, with God as a continuous force in your lives, problems will solve themselves.

Hope things are well for all three of you... tell Carson that we can play airplane when I see him at Christmas if he is good...
