Onto Round 3!

To follow-up on yesterday's post... he passed! Bobby made it through his orals last night and so that makes 2 down (written & oral), 1 to go. The final round is the Presbytery Floor Exam which will be on October 18th. If there are any (and I know there are) other wives whose husbands recently went through this, did you go to their floor exams? I was thinking about going (I think I can), but heard from someone recently that I might want to reconsider. Any thoughts?

Bobby's Big Night

Tonight is the night... Bobby will be meeting with the Candidates & Credentials Meeting for the Pittsburgh Presbytery for his oral ordination exams tonight at 6:30 pm EDT. I know I'll be going crazy waiting for his phone call telling me whether or not he will be recommended to the Presbytery for Ordination!

Meghan McCain

Some of you may have noticed the new link I have listed over on the right hand column for Meghan McCain. And maybe some of you have even clicked on it to check it out. No, Meghan is not my new friend (even though I did request her "friendship" on facebook... but she hasn't accepted me yet, probably just a little too busy right now.) She is the daughter of John McCain and she has her own blog which she updates nearly everyday (my favorite kind!) with updates, pictures, & stories of the campaign trail for her dad and her book signing. She just wrote a book titled, "My Dad, John McCain." The blog is awesome, I love seeing & reading about all the stuff that happens behind the scenes, like pictures of them all eating pizza on the bus and Piper Palin goofing off, acting like a7 year old. You should check it out: McCainBlogette.

2 out of 3 isn't bad

Football season is back and of course it is the highlight of the fall season in our household. (Although it may be taking a backseat to ordination this year.) This past weekend was really good for most of our teams. Pittsburgh (Steelers, not University) and Oklahoma totally dominated their opponents, but West Virginia, on the other hand... not so good. The only positive thing about WVU losing is that since they are the only team out of the 3 we have a real chance of getting tickets to a game for this year, maybe it will be easier if they aren't so good... Is that actually something I should hope for? Probably not.

Can you guess what this is?

















If not, I'll tell you. I found this picture on the front page of Wikipedia today. It's actually The Golden Gate Bridge (in San Francisco) seen through rain drops on the window of an automobile. Cool, huh?
