This morning was the first time we have been to a new church in 11 years. To be honest, it wasn't really that weird or awkward. It was almost like a breath of fresh air. We went to a really young church this morning. It was really nice but most likely is not the church we will call home. The pastor was awesome, 35 years old and the congregation was filled with young couples and babies. There were about 30 other friends there from our old church, so that was comforting. We're really excited to see where God is going to take us. We're learning to be open and willing to try new places. It is weird and sad when we look back at what an awesome church we had-but it was very clear that we were not supposed to be there anymore. We look back and are thankful but we're focused on the road ahead and are excited.
To be honest, I’m not a fan of the boxed pop tarts but homemade ones make me weak in the knees. Our local coffee shops here in Tennessee sell them and they’re my guilty pleasure. I decided to take a quiet Tuesday morning and make some with my sweet boy.
Here’s what I did..
