Sunday Slam

The weekend craziness continued into Sunday! Luckily I was able to sleep a little longer in the morning but was still pretty tired out from being up in the night with Lovey. With no showers to do other than my own, we were ready at a decent time and picked up Tulip and we were off!

It was our minister's last day so it was a special service, with lots of special presentations. The choir did a rollicking good hymn, the kids sang to him, Lovey played a violin piece for him and here was a reception after church. The kids sang again at the reception and also gave him a matted sketch of the church that they'd all signed. The organizers had asked if "the triplets" would present his wife with a bouquet of flowers. I wasn't sure if the kids would be in to that or not want to do the triplet thing. They loved it! They dug out matching dresses, argued over how to all do their hair the same way and made sure they were in full triplet mode!




Something he'd mentioned during his time with us a few times was that he really missed seeing ladies wear hats to church. Word was sent around earlier in the week to find some headgear for Sunday and many people complied! I loved my hat and wish I had one for every week! so much fun!

It was sad to say goodbye to Peter and the kids don't think he should leave at all! He will be missed by everyone but he did mention that we'd see him again in the fall so hopefully he'll be popping in! Our new minister starts in July so we're looking forward to meeting her and getting some new things going with the young families for 2012-2013!
