This morning we went out for breakfast and went to a place where we heard the food was good. It was a small local restaurant but unfortunately it was smoked filled which made our dining experience quite unpleasant. We ate and left as quickly as possible.
We then went to Pastor Josh's house (Kiersten and Nick's youth pastor) where they were having home church. About five or six families have now moved to Texas with more on the way. Upon our arrival they began a combined church service with the people back home in California via web cam. We could see them and they could see us. The pastors on both ends gave a brief message and then they opened it up for testimony. Brandon (now in Texas) gave a tear jerking testimony and Tory (who is still in California but leaving at the end of the week) also gave a tearful testimony. It was a powerful church service using technology.
We then drove around and saw the church property, took pictures of Tory and Denise's house, visited Brandon's apartment, and stopped at the home of some friends of Kiersten and Nick's. This 4,000 square ft lakefront home is absolutely gorgeous. It was $400,000. All during our travels we were experience thunder showers.
We drove into downtown Dallas and met Kiersten's longtime friend Amie. They haven't seen each other since high school. We ate at the Spaghetti Factory and then took a horse drawn tour around Dallas. We saw the location of where Kennedy was assassinated. Alijah loved the horse. We then went up to the top of a the Reunion Tower where we saw a spectacular view of the city. The glass elevator was fun too.
The day ended with hot fudge sundaes from Sonic. It was a long day!
