5.on.the.fly

Sarah was here this past weekend! We took her skiing again. This time we went to Massanutten instead of Wintergreen. Jimmy couldn't go this time, but I'm sure we will take her again next year. Sarah did great again, and we all had such a great time. We had to take her back home when we left the resort on Monday. We are looking forward to the next time we see her. It should be soon; we need to get her something to wear to her Uncle Danny's wedding. Paige got to spend the night with Grandmom and Granddad while we were away. I missed her terribly but Mom and Dad were glad to have the time with her.

Last night was our first nighttime service for 17:17. We had 63 people show up. Things went smoothly and we had a good number of new faces there, so that's a praise report. Unfortunately, a local festival called Winterjam was going on at the same time so we lost some numbers to that. But overall, we're encouraged and looking forward to next week with a full compliment of members.

Well, our SB party tonight went really well. We had a turnout of about 40 folks and everyone had a great time! The game was fabulous (GO GIANTS!! WOOHOO). Paige did really well with it. She finally fell asleep during the fourth quarter, but everytime a big play happened, she woke up scared and crying b/c of all the screaming and hollering. Wasn't long before she was sound asleep again, and she is now safely tucked into her crib for the night and I must say - she is gorgeous. But, I could be biased...
