"My Life as a Youth Pastor"

So I'm thinking about writing a book. Of course, with all the extra time I have, it should be out next month. Seriously though, what do you think? It would be a book for youth pastors sharing lessons learned, blessings & challenges of youth ministry, etc. Who knows? I do think I could really get into it though. Books have been written about such topics, but I would like to write it somewhat like a journal. The real deal.

Free pour cappucino?

So last week I learned how to free pour a cappucino. Very interesting. This means you make the foam and milk as one so you can free pour it over espresso. If you have done it right, the milk and foam will separate to a half and half ratio.

Bet you can't do it!

Back in Philly.....

Well, here we are back in the city. It was great to be in our "homeland" for a couple of weeks - always a crazy whirlwind visit and never enough time to see everyone that we would like to see but always a blast nonetheless. (This is Amy, by the way, as I am sure you can tell by the "verboseness.") And now we are back in our "home away from home" until Christmas probably. Good times. We are, once again, settling back into our rhythm and routine of life - Kev is working full time at Starbucks while he is on vacation from classes, I am taking classes year round, so I am TRYING to not have a "vacation mentality" - but I can't help it -, and Kaden has grown into a "wild child" since we've returned. He is keeping us hopping - OH MY WORD! Just a couple of minutes ago, he put our car keys into an outlet, and his new favorite expression is "I WANT!...." So, presently we are really working on teaching him to say, "Please, may I have...." instead. I wouldn't say that he has entered the "terrible two's," stage quite yet, but I would definitly say that he is twice as busy as he was before we left for Maine. Maybe it was something in the water up there..... Anyhoo - nothing overly exciting to report here. Brenda McCleary may be coming to spend Saturday night with us this next week, and the entire Burt family will be staying with us when they drop Katie off in August. Fun! Fun! Open invite, by the way, to all of you fellow Maineiacs! Party at the Bookers! Hopefully, we'll have something more exciting to post later. Hey - at least we're posting!
