CHURCH AND FAMILY TIME IN COLORADO

Today we had a great time going to church and spending some really good quality family time together. We started off by going to the 10 am service at the church next to the Bible college. It's called Charis Christian Center. The pastor is one of Jt's teachers. He gave an excellent message and we were warmly welcomed. The church is much larger than we are used to back home. It was nice to sit with the family--something I rarely could do at our church. Since I'm on the worship team at home, I am on stage for a large portion of the service, then usually sit in the front bench while Emma and Sophie are in nursery. Even got to sit next to my husband for a change. Pastor's wives rarely get to do that during church and it can begin to feel lonely when everyone else has someone to sit with.



After church we went out for lunch and took some pictures of the girls while waiting for our food. Sophie was in a rare smiley mood. Usually she is very serious. Emma didn't want her picture taken while we were out on the bench, but Rhi snapped a quick photo anyway.

I hope you enjoyed a great day of fellowship at church today. We are counting down the hours now until we say a goodbye that will last for a few months--maybe longer. It will be difficult not to see the girls as often as we did. We are taking advantage of every moment now. Please go to my daughter's blog--www.loaded6string.blogspot.com to see some really great family pictures that we took in the last few days. Check her last few posts for some great photography. Blessings, LORI

  1. Thanks. The other bind off is the old standard regular bind off, it was just too tight. This sewn bind off is more forgiving.

    Is Kansas.....treeless?

  2. No, it's not completely treeless, but I've never seen such flat land. In some of the areas we drove through yesterday, there are so few trees, that you just don't see any, all you see is farmland stretching out forever. I suppose people plant them in their yards.

  3. I imagine it seems quiet and rather lonely at home w/o those sweet babies! I've enjoyed the "diary" of your travels and know your children appreciated having your help in the move.

  4. Yes, just a few days ago Clint began expressing how much he missed the little girls. It's an adjustment.
