We got home tonight from a nice visit with Chris and his family this weekend. The girls stayed in the hotel with Gene and I and enjoyed going for the breakfast with us. Cortlyn and Mandi both picked up new glasses yesterday. Mandi is so funny; she is so excited about being able to wear glasses. She only needs them for distance, but loves wearing them. I'm not sure whether Cortlyn needs her for only distance or not. We all went to see The Water Horse yesterday. It was cute and we all had popcorm of course. Chris and Michelle has found a church they like. It is amazing. They have three Sunday morning services, 8:30am, 10 am and 11 am. They have a gym; have dance classes, fitness classes and all sorts of things going on. We went to the 11 am service. I told Gene I thought they have almost as many members in the choir as we do in our entire congregation. Ours is not quite that bad, but they had at least 30 people in the choir. I think their church seats twice as many people as ours does.
It's a Methodist church. Sometimes, you wonder how some churchs flurish and others seem to have a hard time. Don't know the answer. We have a young pastor who has tried really hard to get things going and we have grown some. It seems that we get so many families who are military and of course military get transferred.
