Me too!

Tag...you're it!
I've been tagged...here's the rules:

1. I have to post these rules before I give you the facts.

2. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.

3. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules. (If you don’t have a blog, email me)

4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.

5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

Here goes:
1 I love books and it is painful to think about getting rid of them.

2. I now have an office the size of a bedroom. I never thought I'd have an office.

3. I love blue raspberry slurpies or white cherry. But the 7-11 near our home never has those flavors so I end up mixing coke and regular cherry.

4. I have always wanted to travel, especially to mexico or spain.

5. I have attended a meeting called The BOB SQUAD. I really thought we were all in trouble but Bob turned out to be a man who really resembled Santa Clause.

6. I love to play soccer but don't particularly like watching it.

7. One of my favorite vegetables is brussel sprouts.

8. I have always wanted to learn how to ride horses.

Extra Extra, Read all about it!

I am a KINDERGARTEN teacher at Evergreen Elementary! I can't tell you how excited, nervous, overwhelmed, joyful I am. It's sinking in. I got my keys today and went to MY classroom. I have no idea what I'm doing or what half the crap thats in there is. But its mine. As well as about 50 little 5 year olds. I think I ought to start praying now!

Our church

We do not meet with an established church. Instead we have been meeting with several couples and working on planting a church. This past week has brought a lot of change to our little meetings. We said goodbye to one couple and welcomed two new couples. Our new friends each have 6 kids so we no longer hold the record in our church!! We do still have the youngest kids which makes things interesting. Stuart and Diesta Love have been here the last couple of weeks and I have really enjoyed hearing them speak. Adam thinks he's like Dumbledore in his calm speaking presence. Its amazing to see the room quiet down and sit with rapt attention with just a word in his calm voice.

We have been able to sing songs this past week because we have more voices. We sang before but it was really pathetic if you ask me!! I still miss the voices from my family. Nothing can beat sitting around singing with the Wilsons and the Wolfgangs. Although I don't add much musical talent to the group I really enjoy listening and trying to keep up.

I am so thankful that we have found people to meet with and to begin the dream of planting a church. We have much work to do but it is good work. I know that Redmond will be blessed by the efforts of this new church to show people Jesus.
