I'll have an order of Ketchup with Bullets

SO sorry. So very sorry. I have had little to no motivation to blog for whatever reason. Things are great, though, so no worries!

Here's what we did in February:

  • Continued to plan the Ladies Retreat. Aunt Karla is our guest speaker ... at our silent retreat. What? It's going to be awesome. April 16-18. Be there. Theme: "Can You Hear Me Now?"
  • Sang with Group Therapy at KE Cellars every other Thursday. Good crowds lately! Lots of fun.
  • Finished up Johnathan's basketball season. Wow. 5-year-olds with a basketball. Now that's funny stuff.
  • Sang with both Group Therapy and Clearly Vocal at the Women's Convention in Harvey Hall.
  • Survived the stomach bug that ran through our house. Literally.
  • Shoveled snow off my driveway for the first time since we moved here.
  • Sang at 3 Valentine's parties and did 30 singing telegrams with Clearly Vocal in 3 days.
  • Took Jonas to the doctor and Johnathan to the dentist; both regular check-ups.
  •  Ran (at least once a week). :)
  • Continued to facilitate my Ladies Bible Class group.
  • Got the news that both our preacher and women's/children's minister were leaving.
  • Sang at Caffe' Tazza again.
  • Drove with Stefanie to Searcy to lead worship with Mom at Harding's WINGS conference. Talk about a quick trip! Up Friday, back Saturday!

And now it's March! So far we've ...
  • Continued getting ready for the Harmony Sweepstakes by rehearsals every Monday night and had a send-off concert last Friday night. So very fun!
  • Sent Kristi's 28th birthday present, albeit late, but sent!
  • Gone on an actual date Saturday night. Dinner at Jake's where Danny was playing and went to see Alice in Wonderland!
  • Taught the children's class at The Gathering (downtown service at West Erwin benevolence center each Sunday night). I'm doing that through March, but we may find a home there on Sunday nights! What a ministry to the less fortunate of downtown Tyler.
  • Had an amazingly low-key past couple of days where I could clean house, do laundry and cook.

And now we're ...
  • Having one last CV rehearsal before the competition.
  • Singing a surprise birthday telegram at 8:15 in the morning.
  • Leaving for Colorado tomorrow immediately after that for the Harmony Sweepstakes! We'll get into Colorado Springs late tomorrow night and get to spend all day Thursday with Mom, Kreg, Keleigh and Westin.
  • Friday morning, John and I will meet the rest of the group in Denver for some fun group time!
  • And Saturday is the competition! Craziness.

I'll be sure to let everyone know how it goes!

(The pics of Kalleigh and Jonas are random. Just didn't want them to be left out!)

I was just telling your mother at noon (We ate at Dixie Cafe), "Kimbo hasn't written on her blog in awhile". How nice to read about your "doings".
