Phil wanted to get rid of some beer, so we had our first, maybe annual, Oktoberfest Friday night. Unfortunately we didn’t have any wurst or saur kraut or chicken dancing, but we did have a German polka band…streaming through my computer.

Pastor Appreciation Month
Wednesday, October 20th, 2010
“But we request of you, brethren, that you appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction, and that you esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Live in peace with one another.” 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13
October is Pastor appreciation month. Here is a list of some ways you can show your pastor your appreciation and love. I ‘heart’ my pastor and my list looks a little different from this one so unless you want to make sure he always has clean underwear and chopped onions to eat with every meal this one from Synod should be more helpful.
Dirndls
Sunday, September 19th, 2010
Phil and I got little dirndls for the girls while we were in Munich. I thought they’d be huge on them but they actually fit so well. We decided they’d better start wearing them STAT (and serving us beer and brats).

Vacation Bible School Week
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010
Well, we’re the big show in town this week with our VBS. The curriculum is ranch themed and today they had a horse come to visit the kids. We were told the horse could do some tricks, she rolled over and used to bow but now she’s a little lame so she just gave some of the kids (Phil) a ride.
Phil volunteered our yard to show the horse in. She thought it was pretty tasty. I was just waiting for a “surprise” that Phil would have to be cleaning up. Thankfully that wasn’t a problem but it probably would have been a good show!
