New Clothes, New School Supplies, and just maybe a New Church...............

well it is wonderful to be in a new city to go school clothes shopping. what a town to be in. i love kolhs, justiss, and stein mart. we had such a great time going school clothes shopping with the girls. we went last friday. we first met two of my past teacher friends for lunch with their kids. we sat and visited for about an hour and a half. we went to mcdonalds so the kids could play while we visited.

the first place we went to get some school shopping was kolhs. i just loved that store. we were able to get alot for them their. the price averaged about $10 per piece. not too bad. some of the stuff we got will also work for church. they were so cute. it was so much fun. we had a blast.

the girls also wanted to go to a specialty shop like limited too, for a first school day outfit. so we discovered a new store called justiss. the stuff was so cute. i will be sure and take pictures on the first day of school. i know i spoil my kids when it comes to clothes, but i don't care!! i just love it.


saturday i ended watching my nephew. the girls really had fun and so did i. we went swimming and then i worked on school stuff.

on sunday we decided to go to a new church. so after i got lost, we finally got there and it was soooooooooooooo big. the members were signing in with a credit card thingie. but i kept an open mind and we went into the sanctuary. the first thing i noticed was that the walls of the sanctuary were orange and blue. they also had strobe light looking things going. like a pinwheel made out of light. wow. not what i was expecting. but the music was so good we stayed, for two songs.

i finally looked at the girls and said do ya'll want to go? they both said yes. so we left and decided to go to bracy wilsons church. we have visited there before, but decided to visit other places. but this sunday there was different. i cried like i was listening to pastor david. it was very annointed. no one will ever replace pastor david, but maybe, just maybe this is where we are supposed to be. hannah went to childrens church. she loved it. we are meeting in a school cafeteria. now this church is a baby church so they do not have services on sunday night, not many of them do. but we decided we would rather get into a church on the ground floor and deal with the growing pains, than go to a church that are herding their members in like cattle. i realize this church won't stay this size for long, but maybe we can get connected while we can learn most of the members names.


we had supper with dan and teresa last night. it was so good to see familiar faces. david got to eat with us last night. he and i went shopping for a little while today. this is when we discovered stein mart. what a wonderful place.

he leaves again tomorrow and won't be home until sunday. maybe it won't be like this forever. i am going to a ladies thing tomorrow for our church. they are having a bunko fellowship. it is one of their small groups. i am so excited. then wednesday, i start full time with more district workshops. i am ready for school to start to keep my days full. we are having a small team meeting, tuesday.

well the girls are also ready to start school too. oh bye the way, i am getting old. i went to an eye doctor today, and he increased my prescription by another point. and then he said you need to get some reading glasses at the dollar store. he said a +1 should eliminate that long arms disease you are fighting.

ttfn...............
