Church Bulletin Board

I have taken on a mission, give my church a make over. It has been a slow process, mom helps on occasion and Brian does too (he doesn't really have a choice). It started about a year ago and one aspect of this is to change up the church, make it look 'up to date'. Meaning take down the newspaper clippings that are falling apart, along with anything else that dates back over 10 years ago. You would be surprised at the amount of things I had to get rid of. Part of the upkeep involved in this plan is changing a bulletin board regularly to display a new message.

This is the board I made for the past advent/christmas season. Not my best I won't lie, but you know the holidays can get pretty crazy. I did put a little more effort into the new year board or so I thought.

This is what happens when you cut out letters while watching American Dad, you miss a few. It should spell out 'kIck off the new year WITH Jesus'. Brian will never let it go. After some painful ridicule, tracing my missing letters, and lining the 'field' Brian and I were finally done.



Finished product!

Update part 3


So this will be the last post to bring everyone kinda sorta up to date. This is Christmas 2010! I'm sorry if the pictures are weird, I just got my first camera from Brian! So hopefully I'll be keeping you all up to date more often then once every 2 years.
This little guy is my Christmas tree! I know he is tiny, but this year it was all Brian and I were gonna do, with all our rushing around to family Christmas gatherings. My mom more than made up for my tiny, but awesome, Christmas tree.

After opening presents Morgan and Brian (my boyfriend) decide to have a nerf war, which is what landed Morgan in the boxes you see below. Those boxes, buy the way, contained my camera. I had to dig through 3 boxes, all wrapped, and tons of newspaper just to get to the camera. No one should ever have to work that hard for Christmas presents. But my revenge will be so sweet =P. (we are trying to talk Morgan into keeping those boxes and being Awesome-O for halloween, if you don't know Awesome-O its a south park thing)

Christmas at mom's, always a good time.
