Best Friends

Good Friends, GREAT Husband.

Thursday, January 29, 2009
Our decision to move to California was not an easy one.  But one of the things that made it easier (though NOT a factor in our decision-making process) was the fact that several of our dear friends from college already lived out here and worked at the same church.  Even though we may not hang out as much now as we thought we...

Any West Wing Fans?

Saturday, January 17, 2009
I thought that was so funny! Very well done! Especially if you watched WW. Whoever did that is brilliant!Ok, I feel the urge to opine (thank you Bill O'Reilly for that vocab word. I now use it at least weekly) for a moment on the upcoming inauguration. So I didn't vote for the guy, and I'm not a big fan of many of...

And They Say Pastors Don't Work!

Monday, January 12, 2009
I've heard some people say. "Your husband's a pastor... he doesn't really work."  Well, if that thought has ever crossed your mind about any pastor you know, let me assure it is not true!  I just laugh at the statement nowadays... Here's a glimpse at what lies ahead for Sean and I this week....Monday 6:30-9:30pm (after a FULL day of work 8-5:30 for...
