Sunday Night “Sum Up”–8.23.2009
Each Sunday night I will be summing up the previous week’s events in a “numbered” list, along with the “sum total” of our attendance for the week…even though “I’m not very good with numbers.”
- Yes, I realize it is Monday night…but that’s the kind of speed things seem to be going these days! Can’t seem to catch up!
- Taylor had his first two days of 3rd grade on Thursday and Friday…dude, I feel old!
- Had a very crazy week trying to get ready for our rollout of our new children’s ministry check-in system. ?Boy, technology is awesome…when it is all set up correctly and working properly!
- Jenny’s mom, Gwen, had hip replacement surgery on Thursday and is recovering VERY nicely!
- Jenny and Tucker went to be with Grandma Gwen on Thursday and Jenny directed the Children’s Choirs rehearsal on Thursday night…Taylor and I took the opportunity to play some golf (celebrating the first day of school).
- Worked pretty much all day until picked Taylor up from school on Friday on our check-in system…thought we were ready. ?Not quite.
- Hustled to SGF to see Grandma Gwen and then head to the SGF Cardinals Baseball game with the FP staff.
- The boys and I came home on Friday night after the game…so we could be here with the dogs.
- We were lazy bums on Saturday morning…pancake breakfast at the crack of noon!
- Taylor wanted to go to the new skatepart here in Carthage…it is really pretty suit!
- Met some pretty cool kids there that were skating…they were very willing to give me some advise on how to help Taylor learn. ?I was quite surprised, honestly. ?I usually have the exact opposite reaction with “skaters.”
- Tucker rode his little bike as well.
- Smoked some ribs on the BBQ grill. ?Smoked them with hickory. ?They turned out really well. ?Got my info. from amazingribs.com
- Went to church to set up for the check-in on Sunday morning.
- Sunday morning check-in was pretty crazy…but I think we had a really good day and it is going to be REALLY nice when we a few weeks under our belt.
- We had really good attendence at FPCarthage…297!
- Hung out with one of our LifeGroups after church for a pool party/BBQ.
- Went back to the skate park and met a guy that is a couple of years younger than I am. ?He is a former skater and was there with his two boys and “knocking the rust off” of the ol’ board. ?The guy was really good…and again, very helpful with Taylor learning to “ollie,” the building block for many tricks, etc.
- Busy week, but really good!
