Busy Times

Well this past week was crazy for both Nick and I. We stayed at school late almost every night, plus we had events in the evening. Tuesday night we had a volleyball game at 9 pm. We played a great hard game and won!! That put us in fourth place out of 10 teams. Now we're headed into playoffs which start this Tuesday night. We play at 6:30 and we're hoping to play our hearts out and go all the way!

Thursday night I had band practice that went well. I am really enjoying playing the bass for Jesus! :) Today at church the leadership team announced that we have a pastor! He will begin next Sunday. We are looking forward to having him lead our church. Tomorrow night we are having a big get together to meet and greet them. It should be a fun time.

Friday night we had small group for church. I made dinner and I cooked maid-rites and down here no one has ever heard of such a thing. So then we started talking about Iowa and of course everyone had to give me a hard time about my Iowa roots. It was a roast on Cirsti the entire night. Everything I said was turned into a joke. Things were said about corn, potatoes (they thought it was Idaho) and hunting. I hadn't laughed so hard in a while. It was good to laugh with all of our friends.

We're still looking forward to Thanksgiving...only 4 more weeks! :) Can't wait to see everyone!
