Busy weekend that was

What a fun, but busy weekend that was. Got to hang out with my brother and his family since Thursday when they arrived from VA Beach and had alot of fun just hanging with them, had a little party on Thursday night for Mom's B-Day then Friday hung around all day and took my brother and his wife out for a anniversary dinner, their anniversary is actually tomorrow, and had a big cook-out easter egg hunt thing on Saturday. Lots of good food and lots of fun, then off to small group and then home to bed. Sunday was good as well, did you see how many people were at church, my goodness there was a bunch. Great service and I pray that lots of people were touched and that we would see them again some Sunday at the FFC. Gonna miss the TXT series, that was alot of fun and very interactive, maybe we can do it again sometime.

Got up yesterday and took Taylor and a couple of other girl-scouts to Indy to the Statehouse where they were pages for the day. If you've never been to the Statehouse let me tell you it's huge. I got to take a tour of the place which was cool but the tour guide was giving facts about the place that sometimes just weren't very interesting. But I digress the tour was fun and got to go into alot of the "big" places like the House room and the Senate room, and the Judges area. Lots of fun. The building has a hallway or tunnel if you will that goes from the Statehouse to Circle Center Mall which is where we ate lunch, CHIC-FIL-A, great food and we need one of those in Muncie or Winchester. Took the girls back after lunch and went back to the mall, not impressed with Circle Center, too many clothing shops not enough other stuff just my opinion, spent about a half hour there then went back over to watch the House in action. Got in there and when they were getting ready to start they announced that the Republicans wanted a caucus and left for an hour, so I had to waste about an hour and a half until 3 when the girls would be done.

Sat on a bench and was watching all the people dressed in their suits and all and couldn't help but wonder, how many of them were on the up and up and how many of them are crooked politicians who take money under the table, do dirty business deals, you know the whole nine yards. Just a thought I had while people watching. There are alot of people in that building, young and old alike and I just wondered who was legit and who was phoney.

Sunday set list:
Let God Arise - Chris Tomlin (Brought the rock on this one, but heard you couldn't hear it, but trust me I brought it)
Here Is Our King - David Crowder*Band (Fun to play except those two fingers that don't move)
You Alone - David Crowder*Band (liked the spontainious thing with the kids)
Everlasting God - Chris Tomlin (Loud crowd on this one)
Jesus Messiah - Chris Tomlin (Haven't done this one a whole lot but people seem to enjoy it)
Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) - Chris Tomlin (It is hard for me to do any songs arranged around Amazing Grace because I know the effect it has on Tammy, it was her moms favorite song and it reminds her of how much she misses her mom)
Blessed Assurance - Fanny Crosby (a little diddy thrown in late Thursday)
