for any of you that read my last blog, you know this past weekend we had the tec church service. well for the past week i haven't been able to eat a full meal. not because i'm trying to stick to a diet or anything. i was so nervous about the church service that my stomach wouldn't let me. you can ask anyone that was around me this past week and weekend. it was really bad on saturday and sunday morning. everyone kept telling me that god will have everything go the way he wants it. well my stomach didn't listen.
on saturday we had 13 exstra bodies stay at our house. they started rolling in around 5. at 7 we went to the church to try and let the guys practice....turns out that didn't go as well as i was hoping for. we had no drums.....so i had to track some down...so after being on the phone and making many calls for 2 hours...we finally got things rolling...after sending almost everyone back to the house. ben, brandon, knate, and me stayed back at the church until around 10:30. just to get back to a house that is full of high schoolers and janet. thank goodness janet was there...someone else who felt a little bit on the older side of things. we finally got everyone laying down around 1:30....but thanks to jill me and janet and jill were still up until 4:30. that's right 2 hours of sleep for me.
i was the first one up come sunday morning. lucky me, i was the first one in the shower too. we got everyone up and moving. a few of us headed for the church around 8. started getting things moving. we sang, we prayed, we had a lot of fun. if you want to see moving...you should have seen it when the whole church was up on their feet sing along at the end of the service. you can ask anyone that was up front...i thought i was going to start crying, it was so moving.
for anyone who was there, thank you! for those that were praying for it, thank you! for those of you that got phone calls from the band, that's what you get for not coming (uncle tim).
and come last night my stomach decided it wanted to eat again. it was great!

Abby, the service was nothing short of AMAZING! You did a fantastic job putting everything together and I'm so happy that you did. Hopefully there is much more like it in the future!
And staying up till 4:30 with you and Jill... Totally worth it in my opinion :) Some of the stuff I told you, I haven't told anyone before in my life. So thanks for letting me share it finally :)
yeah, dude...told you you'd pull it off without me. But, I'm sorry anyway for doubling plans. Stupid me! I'll make it up to you sometime...if you ever need a mediocre guitar player who's voice is partially tolerable, that is.
