What else floats?

What also floats in water?
No not a duck! GO BACK TWO! There we go! Churches. That is our discussion for today.

Jennifer and I are having to change churches. Essentially St. Luke's has just pushed around to the point we don't want to be there anymore, and they finally set down the 21 ton weight that broke the camel's back.

What happened? Well, Jennifer and I booked the church on the 4th at 2 pm. Paid a $600 deposit (which we are getting back thank goodness) to ensure this. On the 16th of this month we were informed that the churches morning event had to be pushed back and that we would have to have a morning or evening wedding. What is the morning event? A practice for their Sunday Service event on the 5th. And they said there is nothing they can do about it. It would cause problems for too many people apparently. Never mind the following facts
1- 6 and 1/2 months away, people can adjust their calendars this far out to come to practice the weekend before, or Friday evening.
2- They didn't even try to do anything, just told, not asked us, but told us to choose a new time
3- We paid for the time. I wish we had signed something really, just so they'd have to try and break a contract. Bet they would have looked for alternatives then.
4- What about how it would effect all the people coming the our event? Why were we, the people who had paid and church members, we we had to essentially fight to become, and all our guests and family secondary to this?
5- Had I asked for the morning, they would have said no, we have a church event. So why when the event coordinator says they need to change to the afternoon is our wedding not a church event. We are members, and did pay. That should be set in stone.

So yeah, we are changing churches. St Luke's has definitely not made us feel welcome (they made us wait outside in the cold one day since we didn't have an appointment while they let someone else in). And then there was the membership fiasco.

ANYHOW! We are going down to All Saints at the Corner of Peachtree and North Ave.
So instead of the church looking like this
It will look more like this I imagineNotice the difference? Wow! That's right. They cooperate and make us feel welcome at All Saints. Good eye, that's hard to tell from the pictures.

I other news, our cool idea for a Germany Honeymoon was blown apart today by the Navy. Thanks anyways Jaime! We are going to have to stay in the US. I am thinking of going either here or here. That's right! Don't forget the Nuge! And the flag makes that the US right. That's how it works. Pretty sure I learned that in history class. And don't say I can't get to the moon. The picture has a guy in it. So :P

Oh and post in this webzone if you want a pizza roll. I'll mail you a pizza role. I have about 5 left. Get them while they are still hot.

  2. Is it too late for a pizza roll? As long as it doesn't have any flour in it. Or cheese.
