Just kiddin'. That was the second song we sang at church today. We had to sing at both services and sit through both sermons as the song referenced above was to be sung during communion. We sounded great from the balcony, if I don't say so myself. We did without robes, but we get to wear robes on Easter, the green ones. Aaron had a great day at Sunday School today. He was straggling behind in his classroom when the second service was going to start, so I went up to get him. His teacher was up there and just beaming about Aaron's performance in class. Apparently she was going to give a lesson today about Moses, the water, and a rock and she said Aaron already knew the story, trying to blurt it out before she could tell the class. She was quite impressed at his retention of that story from our old church in Mountlake Terrace. She got him to zip his lip, though, before ruining it for the rest of his class. He was quite proud of himself, I must say.
Fellowship was nice between services with tons of banana bread and other bread I couldn't identify, but not zucchini, I don't think. Mike Lehrer was regaling us with stories of flying his plane into the Crystal airport near Minneapolis. He says he's going to have to take me up with him sometimes... I had never heard of an airport in Crystal, but he said it's tucked into a residential area nice and tight. He was commenting on that airport as Jerry Wigness was saying when the airport board met here in TRF, they voted to prohibit any and all air traffic within like 4 miles of a residential neighborhood. He thought that was funny they'd allow the airport there in Crystal, but nothing near the houses in TRF. Go figure.
Scott Grochow came down during fellowship and firmed up today's plans. We're heading over to his house so the boys can play with their kids this afternoon. Their PS2 is on the fritz, so we'll bring ours along with the Eye Toy so everyone can dance, but I imagine they'll get plenty of outdoors play too. It was lightly snowing during church, but I think it's stopped for now. It's still pretty balmy, I would guess in the 20's somewhere. Hope all our friends and family are having a great Sunday and hopefully as relaxing and enjoyable as ours.
Love,
Jim, Lisa, Andrew, and boys

Hey Jim,
Funny you should mention the Crystal airport. I remember driving past it on Bass Lake Rd., only to see an airplane that had flown into one of the homes--half of it was inside the second story, the other half hanging out...
I wouldn't want to live there!

Given its description of an airport "within a heavy residential area," perhaps the runway was through the house in question... :)
