A time of first

We really have not forgotten about blogging, but we have been a little busy. We also cannot agree on a name for a new blog, so here is another post to this one.

Since our ordination, we have been doing a lot of things for the first time - first house we have bought in NC outside of Charlotte; led worship with communion for the first time; taken the confirmation class on a retreat for the first time; gone to our first homecoming at Becks; gone to First Call Theological Education for the first time; confirmed students for the first time; gone to our first BBQ festival; signed our names with the title Rev. for the first time; and many more that I can't even think of now.

If you haven't checked it out yet, Becks has a new website and there are several pictures of us posted there (along with many others, of course).

We have moved into our new house and much of our belongings are unpacked, but there are still several boxes to go - mostly in the office and garage. Smokey is settling in quite well and Sam, the neighbor's dog, has become a good playmate. Here is a picture of our new house.

That is all for now, but at least you know that we are still around and have not dropped off the face of the earth.
