Sunday

Brian and I had a great day today. First of all, the weather was awesome! It actually felt a little fall-ish today. I love it! We went to Sunday School and to church and both were wonderful. Our teacher has been teaching on the attributes of God. It's an interesting study and our teacher is interesting to listen to. We went home after picking up some lunch and took a very needed nap. You HAVE to take a nap on Sunday-- it's the unspoken rule! We got up and even though we were running late, we headed back to church for our small group with the Sunday School class. We're going through a financial planning lesson right now. It's a study that Dave Ramsey has done. He is a financial "guru" who is a Christian so his study is based on Christian principles. It's been good so far. I'm going to try to read his book and see if I can learn some things about our finances. Brian would be so proud! But we really had a good time hanging out afterwards, eating dinner with the friends we've made in the class. It's difficult to get to know people sometimes, especially when you only see them once a week for a limited amount of time. But we've continued to go to small group and I feel like we've finally broken through past that time of just getting to know each other and now we're able to sort of go to the next level in conversation which is great! I've really enjoyed getting to know the people in our class, and we're forming some good friendships there. So now we're back at home and Brian is watching his Yankees game so he's a happy boy. He loves those Yankees!
We're hoping to get our documents back from California this week and send them out soon to the agency. We'll keep our fingers crossed!

I'm glad y'all are settling in and I'm very glad s.s. has actually been good lately! Hope it stays that way for awhile. I'm headed to bed, John is waiting... just wanted to say, "hi."

This is a nice way to "keep in touch"! Glad you're doing it! I really appreciate your insights and will spend some time with them! It sounds like the job situation worked out in a timely fashion and in a familiar environment! I know the "boss" will like having you there!!
Love you, Mom D.

Hi Jan,
Yesterday was nice, I agree. The weather was glorious, but makes me sneeze sometimes. Oh, well. I'm glad you and Brian enjoyed the day, just relaxing and being together, but also worshipping and fellowshipping. That looks like too many pp's?
Anyway, let us know if you get the paperwork back this week. We'll be anxious to hear.
And I also agree this is a nice way to keep in touch, and even let's us in the periphery (sp?) have indirect contact with each other - Hi to Mom D from this Mom D.
