hiatus

we are moved(ing) into our new house.

i finally got internet access (high-speed now, thanks be to the cable guys).

my computer is set up on my dryer because i don't have ends on the cat5 cable routed through my house. i can only stand there in front of it for so long.

we are very busy, so please forgive my lack of postage.

in other news, things are moving ahead quite quickly for me to be helping with a church plant here in k-town. very excited. we have already purchased a building and will begin meeting there shortly. al (pastor i'll be working with) was filling out stuff today to get internship funding for me so i can begin putting time in at the plant. so it looks like i'll be doing another fm internship. good times. hope i don't have too many reports to do.

in other other news, saturday night i attended the blazing falcons iron chef competition. (blazing falcons is the name of our men's group at next church) we divided into teams, were given a pound of bacon and $20, and told to create a three course dinner (app, main, dessert) with bacon in each one. we were given 90 minutes and then judged. my team came in second out of about fifty-seven (*ahem* three) teams. the meals were surprisingly delish. every thing from budget kd with bacon to bacon-wrapped filet mignon and bacon-wrapped scallops to chocolate covered bacon and chocolate chip cookies cooked with bacon grease instead of butter. go here for pics.

mmmm....bacon.

Church plant?! Awsome news, and sounds much more interesting and much more "you" than that electrician stuff you were going on about before. Kudos my friend.
