It's hard to believe I've been in Eden Prairie for 3 1/2 months! In many ways it feels like I have been here forever. In other ways, it feels like I'm just here for the summer and I'll be headed back to Bridge in a week or two to start putting together the Christmas Play.
But that isn't what is happening...and it is no longer summer. Thankfully, it's felt like summer these past few weeks. I love that the warmth is lingering, but I'm anxious to put on a sweatshirt as well. (I am not AT ALL anxious, however, for snow, ice and below zero temperatures.)
The last three months have been good, and a growing experience for me. I was able to attend the Willow Creek Leadership Summit in August. I love Willow Creek Conferences. One of my favorite things is watching their music and the energy through it. This year, an incredible violinist took the stage. A good, energized violinist is one of my favorite things in the world. I was also given the opportunity to serve at "Feed My Starving Children" with my church. My friend Lora J. got married in August, and I had a wonderful birthday - went to dinner with my parents and my friend Dori, and then sang karaoke with Dori and Lacy. I was able to go to the State Fair at the end of August with some family, and the same weekend Tony and Kelly and the kids stayed at my apartment and went to church with me. I went to a Twins game with my parents - they won! I held my first Drama team meeting, and did our first drama at the church. I'm also just starting up a youth worship team - first practice and meeting next Sunday. And I'm leading worship at an Alpha Course this Fall on Thursday nights.
Last week I received a phone call from a booking agent about doing a dueling pianos show at the Axel/Bonfire restaurants in the Twin Cities. I'm going to go watch one to see if it's something I'd be interested in. The same day, I was taking my trash out, and cut my leg very badly. I ended up with 11 stitches! That should make for a pretty sweet scar.
I'm looking forward to Rachael, Eva and Marah coming to visit in a couple weeks! I'm taking a couple vacation days to spend with them while they are here. The following weekend, I'm watching the Morgan girls - excited for that as well. And the next weekend, I'm leading worship for the women's retreat at Big Sandy Camp. It'll be great to be back at camp for a weekend.
That about wraps up my life (that can be shared publicly!). Maybe next time it'll be less than 2 months between entries.
