7:10: Woke up to the smell of something cooking in the kitchen.

7:36: Served breakfast in bed.

7:40: Cat joins me in bed. She gets nothing!!

8:38: Leave home to go watch 30 minutes of my niece's soccer game. (See past post for pic of niece at a previous game.)
9:30: Leave soccer game (early, of course) to head to homeschool field trip of new church construction.
10:00ish: Arrive at construction site and begin tour.
~ walking into area of the sanctuary

~ the west wing (Sanctuary and Adult class rooms)


~ Pastor Lyall was our tour guide. We had around 50 dads, moms, and kids come.

~ the new gym area: it is 2x the size of our current one.

~ chatting with a couple of the guys "in charge" of the construction project.
~ It was also graffiti day, when you get to write one of your favorite bible verses on the steel beams. The only time you can write on anything in the church!!
~ I wrote down just one verse: "The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul", Psalm 19:7. This tells me that if what man says contradicts the Bible, then it is wrong, because God's Law (the Bible) is PERFECT! And, its words will strenghten and renew you!!
~ Also one of my favorite verses
~ Marilyn writing down her verse.
11:15: Leave construction site and head toward Auto Zone, where Joel's traveling basketball team has a car wash fundraiser.

12:04: Drop Noah off at practice (4 minutes late, oh the horror, according to Noah!) and head to run errands for Mother's Day (yes, dear sister, I was able to get another of what I said I would!)
2:00: Noah is done with practice. Head home to eat lunch. Yes, lunch at 2:15! I had a really good breakfast, remember :-}
2:42: Leave to go pick up Brian, Marilyn, and Joel from car wash
3:00 Arrive back to car wash. Get behind 2 cars (Pastor Lyall was in front of me!!) to have van washed.

Too tired to take any more pictures!! Sorry. But the food was great and the waitresses did their "Yee Haa" for my mother-in-law's birthday.
