School is in session!!!
Well the first day of school has come and gone and both Kayleigh and Liam seemed to enjoy the experience. Kayliegh was a bit anxious about what her teacher would be like. I think she was expecting Jezebel or theWitch of Endor or something but she came out of school today and couldn't wait to tell us how nice her teacher was. Liam, though somewhat quiet and reserved, as he is known to be, had nothing but good things to say as well. This was Liam's first full school day experience so this was a big day for him. We'll see how he feels after a couple more days. I think he'll be great, he's very adaptable.
Back to Church
We had our first day back in church the other day and it was great to see some of our friends for the first time in almost two months. After church we ended up packing some sandwiches and heading off for a picnic at Inchmahome Priory with Dave, Louis and Lilly. They're the family that lived in San Diego for ten years and moved back here about two years ago. Dave is from the States, Louis is from Scotland, and Lilly is the American born daughter that has a Scottish accent. Inchmahome Priory is an old church and place of refuge for the Queen during times of war that dates back about 800 years. It's located on an island on the Lake of Menteith (the only lake in Scotland) so we had to take a boat out to it. This is all free since we have 'Historic Scotland' memberships. The weather was great (cool and sunny) and we had a great time taking in the sights. So sorry to hear it's still so hot back in Pa. The weather here has been amazing.
The last couple of days have been spent trying to get our office things back in order and setting up appointments. We are scheduled to have a steering committee meeting in Kilmarnock next Thursday evening the 25th. Pray this will go well.
More later,
Marc
