"You're gonna be po-pu-u-lar!"

We haven't posted for too long now, so here are some Fink happenings from the past two weeks. First, two weekends ago I made Randy stand in line at the Wicked ticket lottery to see if we could get tickets to the show. They sell 20 tickets by lottery for $25 each before each show, and I figured we had nothing to loose standing in line. After not winning for the Saturday matinee, we recruited my mom, Chris and Marty to put their names in the drawing along with us, and WE WON! TWICE!! Chris was the first name drawn, and Randy was fourth or fifth. I could not believe it. I have wanted to see this show for FOREVER, and it was absolutely wonderful. Not to mention that our seats were 4th row-- partly obstructed but still great. So thanks Metzls and Mom for standing in line with us (and to Mom for babysitting).

This past weekend we went to our All-Church Retreat and really had a great time. I did not appreciate how popular having a baby makes you, and we were followed by a horde of 8 year old girls every time Vivy was out an about. As Glenda would say, "You're gonna be popular!"


The last bit of news is only exciting for me: I'm going to resume my classes at Gordon-Conwell this summer. After doing this motherhood thing for a few months (six to be exact), I think I'm ready to tackle school again. I'm also fully aware that I may be eating these words in about six more months. Only time will tell...

That's the news from Lake Wobegon. Hope everyone is having a good week.
