Who says I can't possibly respond!?! Me? at a loss for words? Not likely. So here's my response...in linear format.
1. You're welcome for blogging.
2. I enjoyed last Sunday as well. But my response to the "addicted to serving" bit was to sigh and think "One more thing that one has to keep in balance. There is no rest from the balancing act of life..." By the way, Jeff says the Mennonites do a really good job in the area of serving.
3. OK, I'll wait with bated breath for the website to be up to date.
4. I'm not a man so I'll feel free to forget about the Smackdown. I think it might have already happened...
5. Yeah! I'm so happy that the baby is obviously doing well! Even having gender already. And I like the name. Some of the possible nick names leave something to be desired (like: Elli) Well, I'm not into nick names, but if I was I would probably vote for "Monty". And it would be fun so see baby pics.
6. The interspersed pics of the game look good. Its really fun to have a project that allows for so much participation! Julie and I are planning to work together on various scripture card series. The first project is "sacrifice/offerings" from Genesis to Jesus. And its great to see all the artists doing cool things with the characters and game tiles! Even if the game never gets finished we are still having a great time!
7. Good luck on the floor tiling project.
8. I hope your new dishwasher comes with a good warranty!
9. Second Samuel this week. I have kids so I guess I'll take a look.
10. Can you tell us the downtown location or do you have to look at it first? Or be more sure that we're moving there? or what? If they demolish the Muse can we have some broken chuncks of our painted walls or floors or something?
11. I can't believe Derek beat me to responding! Arrrggg! And he even numbered his stuff! Arrrggg! I was going back and forth to make sure I addressed every topic and by number 9 I noticed Derek's response appearing. He's really just telepathically stealing my ideas. Well, I covered 11 points and he only has...well, I can't remember but it wasn't any where near 11!!!! I claim victory in the topic war.

He even has a name Elliott Montana. Yes, we like state names. Hopefully Sue will put up some pics of the baby. There are some great ones with him sucking his thumb. He has really long arms and legs . . . no surprise there. If you haven't already noticed, I've tried put different pics of the last week interspersed through the blog. I have been hard at work putting together a visually satisfying demo version of the game. 
I hope you like the pics. Sue and I designed a new board and I've been improving the character cards, weapons cards and Monster cards for the game. Hopefully, I will have a fully functioning game for everyone to play while we wait for the finished product to be put together. Pics of the game show the sickness blob, a human, and a weapon. Enjoy! I will be taking next week off. The Seneca house is going to spend the week tiling its floors.
If you are interested in helping, and you know something . . . anything about tiling, we would be grateful for your help. Our dishwasher died yesterday, and we decided to get a new one that was a little bit better and able to deal with our constant washing. At Vespers, we are starting the book of Second Samuel. It will be good to pickup from where we left off . . . Also, we will be moving from the Muse in June. We have a place to go, but I haven’t looked at it, so I’m not sure what it looks like, but I do know that it will be downtown.
