Field Trip

I went on a field trip at school. We visited to churches in San Diego and had a chance to interview the lead pastors + a staff member. It was incredibly insightful to see two different churches in the same city where I, I loved learning about how they do things and what their priorities are. Both churches are quite different to each other, and to Urban, we all share similarities but we are all different.

The picture of the body of Christ makes so much ore sense when you look outside you box. I loved being able to ask questions and see what God is doing in these congregations and through them. They reach people we aren't reaching and vice versa.

In case I haven't said it lately, I love school!!

Happy Birthday Tranics

For Tranica's birthday we built a fort in our living room, after cutting an awesome cake in class and celebrating her with all the USM students. We watched elf and ate popcorn, and I loved her birthday ha. Now I want a fort every time we watch a movie in the living room.

That is my hair after a head massage by K. He's good at the massages that is a fact, but I don't so so well on the looks department after them. I love that he's always willing to massage my head and my back and even my feet, he's the best, hands down the best.

Fondue with couples

 

There are so many cool couples at our church, you wouldn't believe it. K and I have an opportunity to hang out with many of them through different church events or just for fun, and we decided we had to get a few of them together every now and then so they all know each other. Our first attempt at that plan was a fondue party for 4 couples + us. We asked the Vegas if we could have the party at their place since we live in a midget home, they agreed and excess of cheese and chocolate flowed through the night. 

We had such a wonderful time, next plan is having more couples, some other couples that didn't get to come to fondue, and having a mystery murder dinner. We'll see when we are able to do that. 

Thank you Vegas and thank you everyone for coming!

The City and flare jeans

 

So once again we had The City at church with all the youth and I thought it was a great opportunity to pull the flare jeans out. I like them I am glad they are back, I think I'll be wearing them more and more. 

Gibson is now 1

Gotta love my double chin 

Remember when Gibson was born? I cannot believe it's been a year. We love Gibby, we've gotten a chance to hang out with him here and here and here and the more we see him the more we think he's just awesome.

Happy Birthday Gibs, your friends looked awesome as did you, and your mom and dad did a great job planning your party. 

Facetime with Titus

Titus is our new nephew, he's perfect, and we are meeting him in exactly one month. A month is way too long when it means he'll be double his age by the time we meet him, so in the meantime we have to be ok with seeing him on the phone. 

We really cannot wait to hold him and play with his sisters.

David Crowder & Friends

Photo of the week a couple weeks ago

My friend Tranica is probably one of the most thoughtful people I know, she is just incredibly sweet and always very aware of others. For my birthday she sent me a postcard saying I had plans for the night of October 7th, I was going to be at David Crowder's Concert. 

In case her company wasn't enough of a treat, my K also got a ticket for himself and joined us, such a lovely night. Not only did we get to see David Crowder band, but also saw Gungor, Chris August and John Mark McMillan. I hadn't been in a concert in a while and this one was definitely a great way to get back into them. 

Thanks Tranics, I had a lovely night!

Photo of the week - Wk 4

 

I had quite the busy week, I have been on the go for over 10 days and by Friday afternoon I was exhausted. During my lunch break (that I never take) I decided to go up to the roof at my house and lay on the hammock. Fell asleep and if you've ever been here you know I live right under the airplane path, so this huge airplane flew over me, startled me and just like that I fell from the hammock. I really wish someone would have been there to see how comical the scene was.

So a little bit of rest, a little bit of sunshine, a little bit of laughter makes this picture my photo of the week.
