Good Weekend

Well, yesterday I got some stuff done around town here. I got Bee registered at her new preschool. They had seven children on their waiting list, Bee being one of them, so they decided at their last school board meeting to add an afternoon class, so now she's in. I've had this school recommended by many, many people, and I'm very excited about it. We went to the community center and bought our pool pass. We thought about not getting it, since we're not moving until the beginning of July, but it'll cost 20 bucks for all of us to get in. If we go to the pool 5 times between now and the end of August, it's paid for, so I figured, go ahead. One of the pools is actually a "sprayground". It's just a bunch of different sprayers spraying everywhere. It's really cool. Bee wanted to go in as soon as she saw it, but it was way too windy and chilly to swim outside yesterday, so we came back an swam here at the hotel inside instead. She wasn't happy!

We went to our new church building and explored. It's a really big, old building in downtown. It's got lots of little closets and rooms set in odd, creepy places. It would be an awesome building to play a game of sardine's in. For those of you out of the student ministry loop, sardines is where one person hides while everyone else waits for a few minutes. Then everyone else looks for the one person who hid and climbs in to hide with them. This is most fun when done after dark with flashlights, or without. It can also lead to trouble, so you need lots of adults around when their playing. So anyway, we explored all the rooms, hallways, the kitchen, the stairwells, the strange closets behind closets, the classrooms you can only get to thru other classrooms. We opened one door off the fellowship hall and it was a really dark tunnel into nowhere. It creeped me out so we didn't go in. I have visions of it being some tunnel that leads all under the downtown area. I know... vivid imagination.

Today, my MIL, SIL, and niece drove over. They're staying here in the hotel tonight and then driving back to IN with us tomorrow to help us finish packing. I showed them the town today. We swam. We went out for pizza and now we're back....

Smart Guy just walked in, I'm outa here! Bye! Gotta see my hubby... it's been three days!
