Our Day

This morning were awakened way to early by a certain little boy. After breakfast, we tried to get Alexa to nap, but it didn't work. So we hung out in the hotel until church time. We left about 50 minutes before church started, and we still were late. We turned around a few times, got lost, and then Alexa threw up everywhere. Finally, Phillip (who knew where the church was) came to rescue us, and we arrived a few minutes after church started. Alexa and I sat in the lobby in case of more sickies. Every one else sat in the overflow room upstairs and watched the service on a screen.

After church, we headed to Chattanooga. Fortunately, Alexa didn't throw up again. In fact, she slept for an hour and a half, so we just ate our sandwiches in the car instead of stopping at a rest area to avoid waking her. She woke up about 20 miles out of Chattanooga, so we pulled over at the next rest stop. She ran around outside and ate some lunch like nothing had ever happened.

We arrived at Covenant and settled in to our room. Dave wedged the pack and play in the bathroom somehow, and we tried again to get Alexa to sleep. I'm not sure if she did, but at least she was in a better mood when she got up. Meanwhile, I took the car seat apart and cleaned all the throw up off of it. Fun, fun. I also rinsed the clothes she had been wearing.

We visited Reformed Presbyterian church tonight, which is the church we attended while in college. It is always good to worship with other believers.

We headed back to the room for some dinner and very quickly put Alexa in bed. And now I need to head that way, too.

Tomorrow, we plan to tour the new buildings on campus, do some sightseeing in Chattanooga, and then head home.
