The Church at Parker

We tried out the CAP. Great music from a live band with very talented singers!
The Pastor is full of fire minus the brimstone. He was passionate and had great Charisma. Graham let his presence be known by releasing his high pitched squeal. The very friendly pastor let me know through his mic that they did indeed have a nursery.
The very kind lady sitting next to us led us down the hall where we handed Mr. Noisy to the very kind lady in the room full of toys.
Once seated in the Sanctuary the Pastor let us know that children's church had been canceled due to illness. Emma immediately began flopping in the seat next to me asking when the torture would be over.
So other than my kids doing their very best to drive me nuts and deafen me it was good experience. I was under the impression it was non denominational but discovered it is indeed a baptist church. I am willing to try it out a little longer, but if they try to get me to be re-baptized I am leaving. And if I am told dancing is not allowed during music time I might jump on a table.
On a side note the Pastors name is Eddie and his wife is named Linda.

Updates

I have been terrible updating this! I am so sorry! I have been steadily working on getting my house in order. It is taking so long! I decided my kids have to many toys and my husband has to many clothes.
It snowed this past weekend and we did not brave the roads to go try The Church at Parker. Next week maybe. We did however try sledding. That was such a blast! It is also a really good work out! Graham was not a fan. He did not like the cold spray of snow in his face. He gave up after 3 trips down the hill.
I did find a sled that was for babies. It said for 2 and under only! It had little straps in it. Could you imagine strapping your poor child in that thing and send them down the hill by them selves! Graham did not like it with his parents. He would freak all alone!
Emma's school is just around the corner, a little over half a mile. Every morning she rides her bike. I follow right beside her in the car (that girl is crazy it is too cold)
Every afternoon, Graham and I either by stroller or bike go pick her and ride back home. The way to school is not bad. Coming back is all up hill! My legs should be in awesome shape!
Emma started Karate lessons and loves it! I do have to say she is becoming more polite and not as willing to argue. If you have a problem with your kids talking back, Karate! It is a change that I expect from a good Karate program but did not expect it so soon! The instructors are polite and kind but expect full attention and all rules are stated once and will be followed from that point forward.
Okay got to go fix the kids breakfast!
