It’s been 15 days from the last time I wrote. If you’re wondering, I’m sitting in a basement watching some of Kimmie’s family playing backyard baseball on the wii.
Since I last updated we left Nashville, and headed to Westmoreland, TN and headed northward to the wonderful state of Ohio, or as I still refer to it “home” (sorry, mom). It was nice we arrived in Springfield on thursday night, did a friday morning concert, then headed to a different church in springfield to do a sunday morning concert, then to St. Paris Ohio, for those who aren’t Ohio-savvy St. Paris is East of Urbana… Then we couldn’t find anyplace to go, so thankfully scheduling did what worked out best for me and just brought us back to Springfield and then onward to Cedarville… The reason I’m so excited is because I got to spend over a week with Kimmie, it was nice, face to face interaction, not phone conversations… I met part of the Bowen family (Mom, Dad, Sister Laura, Brother In Law Dave, and Niece Ava (who is adorable by the way) at Panera for dinner. I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous, but It went pretty well, I think they like me…
Our sunday morning church was High Street Church of the Nazarene in Springfield… While there I had the opportunity to meet/reminisce with Kevin Mays. For those who went to Lake Carroll Baptist Church you’ll remember this name, his parents Roger and Gloria Mays, sister and family (the lawsons) went there for many years… small world, but it was nice to meet a fellow gator in a state dominated by a love for a lesser football team Ohio State.
We then went to Cedarville University which as most of you know is my Alma Mater, to perform in a chapel service… It was weird being back in any sort of official capacity. Interestingly enough, some things with Cedarville never do change, as they attempted to give me demerits for scanning and scramming, go figure, I couldn’t even take one chapel, what are the odds?
We were in Lynchburg this past weekend. It is nice to see all the people from the office, but at the same time its a little unnerving making sure everything runs completely optimum in front of all the bosses. But it went pretty smooth, and there were right around 2000 boxes donated to christmas for an orphan, so that was excellent… that is an estimated donation of right around $60,000!
I flew monday afternoon from Lynchburg to Ohio, and am spending thanksgiving with Kimmie’s family, its pretty exciting, at this exact moment I am watching Kimmie’s brother in law dave play punchout on the wii.
here are a few pictures of the kids, now that I finally got my camera back.
