Woah, It's been awhile.

Now that I have totally neglected my blog, let me update you on my busyness. Kris and I are in a Christmas play at our church and have had to be at practice a ton. Also the Armory Youth Center is having some difficulties so I have had to sit through many a board meeting. Right now I should be working on my IPS homework, since it is due Friday and I am leaving for thanksgiving tomorrow.
Radio wise I am hard at work. My play by play guy Ed Conley, and I went around trying to drum up some sponsorship for the upcoming basketball season today. Had some success. Coming up next Monday is Old Fashioned Christmas in London. We plan to play lots of Christmas music and I have some roving reporters that will be hitting streets (pictured). In January we are also planning to have a technical seminar for pastors, to help them understand powerpoint and to explain how they can get their messages played on WCYC-LP. I must get to my homework now. Hopefully it wont take me two more weeks to blog again.

Kalvary's first emergency room visit

Kalvary had her first emergency room visit on Friday night. She did a dive off the couch and hit her head on the coffee table. Fortunately, even though it was deep, the doctor was able to avoid stitches by using glue. You would think that she would have stopped climbing on things since, but nope. Yesterday at church she got up to the front before anyone could catch her and climbed up on the piano chair. She would pound on the keyboard, then lean over and pretend to sing in the mike. It was very cute, although it looked a little dangerous.

Change of Plans

Well, I had planned to work at the station all day today, but Kris caught a flu bug last night. You , know, the kind were she was throwing up every half hour. We're pretty sure it is a bug and not the fact that she is pregnant, since she seemed almost over the morning sickness thing. Anyway, all that to say that I got up at five, went in to the station and worked 2-3 hours. I basically made sure that it would run until tommorrow night and that it would sound like someone was there live until tommorrow noon. Then I rushed back to take care of Kalvary today, so that Kris could rest. Oh, yeah, and I get to take care of Kris too. :)

I did have a couple of projects that I wanted to get done at home, so it is working out ok. I cleaned the fish tank with the help of Kalvary-poo. She is such a big help ;). She mostly got in the way, and had fun watching the fish jump out of its bucket. One of the pictures I am including is of our fish. Their names are Beans and Rice. We used to have a Pleco named Lizano, after our favorite Costa Rican sauce, but he kicked the bucket when I forgot to turn the heater on this winter. Beans and Rice are Koi, which means that they will eventually get to be 3-4 feet long. That is, if I don't manage to kill them first. They have already grown several inches since we bought them and we will eventually move them into my parents pond.

The next thing I did was put Kalvary down for a nap. Then I made a batch of soap. One of my hobbies is soap making and I want to have a batch of bars to sell at the Freed thanksgiving auction. The extended Freed family started having an auction last year to help cover some of the costs of everyone traveling to, and renting a location to hang out. If anyone wants some soap, let me know.

Kalvary's Costume

I still plan to do a more radio oriented post at some point, but who can focus on radio when your daughter is as cute as this?

We weren't going to take her tricker treating at all, but grandma Freed had this little strawberry outfit squirreled away, so we let her take Kalvary around to a few select houses. Kris stayed at the house and gave out candy to the few neighbor kids who stopped by, and I had an armory board meeting. While you're thinking about it, say a prayer for the armory. We are going through a trying time as an organization.
This past weekend was a fun one. Kris and I are in the Church Christmas program so we had a practice Saturday morning. Then I had to preach on Sunday. My theme was fellowship, and it seem to go rather well. Sunday Evening was our church's annual Harvest Party, which was the usual blast, if you don't count me getting my new jeans dirty, trying to two hand touch Rob.
