Church went good this morning! The kids and I were really tired. The front page to the Sunday paper was pretty late so we didn't get done delivering the Sunday papers until 6:00 today. We are normally done about 4:30-4:45. So we didn't really get rest before it was time to get ready for church.
We did have an interesting experience delivering the paper today. One of our apartment building had the fire alarm going all throughout the building. All the residents stated coming out....some stood outside and others went and waited in their cars. The fire fighters got there and went through the building. I guess they found out it was from some burnt toast. I am sure that all the people that were outside at 4:30 in the morning in the rain was so glad that someone was making toast that early! This made it really hard to deliver the papers. They have those doors that close when the alarms go off so not all of them were opening so that we could get through to deliver the papers. It was funny because some of the ladies were asking if they could have a paper and the kids asked what apartment number they were.... then they would mention that they don't normally get one. They said I know.... the kids let them know that they had to pay for the paper in order to get it.....so funny!! I was glad to get that building done and get on the road to finish the rest of the route.
When we came home from church we spent a some time to eat lunch and then we all took a nice long nap to catch up on some lost sleep....wow that nap was great. I think that I slept a little to late because I am still up and should be headed to bed so that we are ready to deliver the papers in the morning :)
We are gearing up for another great week with school. At the end of this coming week we will be celebrating Yom Kippur and then the following week is Sukkoth. This week and next we will start to study pyramids and do some fun science experiments....should be a great week!!
