I never seem to have time on the actual weekend to post about our weekend! So now we are halfway (almost) to the next weekend and I'm just getting time to post! Oh well...
We had a really busy weekend and I have pictures! I know whoever reads this is so excited!! :-)
Saturday morning was filled with Josh working and me volunteering at our church's food ministry. Soon after that we headed off for a visit with Josh's grandpa who is in the hospital...We left there and went to this church in Galion, OH. It ended up being a 2 and a half hour drive so that wasn't too bad.
Galion Church of the Nazarene Josh led worship for a short revival at the church on Saturday night and then again on Sunday morning. We weren't able to stay for the Sunday night service because we had to jump right back in the car and drive home for this concert.
Saturday night we were stayed in a neat apartment that is ran by some people who used to live in Galion. The apartment is only used by people who are in town at various churches doing ministry - missionaries, musicians, evangelists, etc. What a great ministry so that people don't have to stay in hotels and churches can save money on lodging. The people who own the apartment don't charge anyone for the use of it. It was tiny, but super cute and very clean!

Like I said we had to pack up and jet out of town on Sunday right after the service got over to make it back in town for Josh's benefit concert. It was a good time - there was somewhere just over 100 people that showed up and donated about $1100 to the Salvation Army! I know that Josh was happy with the turnout and the Salvation Army I'm sure is happy for whatever additional money comes in during times like this. 
Somewhere along the way I married a rock star
That was our busy weekend. We are back in the swing of the work week. Josh used last night and today to work on the Shasta and he had his dad were able to get some work done like getting oil changed, etc. Josh also got most of the rest of painting done on the inside. It's getting close to the point where I can get in there and clean it up and get everything put away! So excited to finally use it in just over a week!
We did! Although I think that Wooster is a very strange name for a town and don't really like the way the word sounds when I say it I am using it in this blog. Josh filled in leading worship on Sunday morning at the Church of the Savior in Wooster, OH.
I still have yet to figure out exactly where Wooster, OH even is. We drove for like 3 hours, on many roads, highways, 2 lane roads...seemed like forever. I joke that the GPS that Josh got for Christmas has saved our marriage - but I really think it's true! We would have NEVER made it to Wooster with both of us alive without the GPS!
At any rate, Josh met and practiced with the worship team on Saturday night (3 very nice guys!), he's not used to getting to play with a band so that was fun for him. Usually he is his own 1 man band. After the practice we found the hotel that the church put us up in for the night (Hilton Garden Inn...I felt like I was home since this is the brand of hotel I stayed in for 4 months in Dallas.) and then went to find something to eat. 
As you can see - we pretty much ate it all :-) Yummy steaks and potatoes!
As you can see - we pretty much ate it all :-) Yummy steaks and potatoes!Sunday morning he led worship in both of their services and then we headed for home. Well actually we drove by home and went right to my aunt and uncle's house for a graduation/May family birthday celebration. It was a fun weekend all around!
This coming weekend Josh is playing Saturday night and Sunday at the Troy Church of the Nazarene - I am not going this time though as my sister-in-law and niece and nephew are coming to town and Mother's Day is Sunday and I'd like to see my mom (I'm a great daughter!).
Here are a couple more pictures of our weekend.
The church was pretty large...
And had a heart shaped pond...
:-)
I think that's what Thursdays should be called - - Thankful Thursday!
- Thankful that tomorrow is Friday
- Thankful that a long week is almost over
- Thankful for a couple days off
- Thankful for time with Josh and family!
Yep. Thankful Thursday.
We have a busy weekend coming up - Josh is playing 2 services at a church on Sunday (I guess I haven't mentioned anywhere yet that Josh is a musician) and then we are going to a graduation get together for my cousin. We will be driving on Saturday and Sunday as the church is 3 hours away...so we'll be spending some quality time (??) in the car. :-) But the church is putting us up in a hotel Saturday night so that will be nice!
I always seem to forget the camera when we travel to other churches but I'll try to remember this weekend so I can post some pictures of our weekend.
