This morning we sat through a three-plus hour long congregational meeting at church. The various committee chairs reported on their activities throughout the year, the budget was discussed and approved, and the new church officers were elected. Andy was elected moderator, essentially council president, for a one-year term. He's promised me that it means he'll be attending fewer meetings because he can no longer serve on standing committees; he'll only have council and the search committee. L likes the gavel.
I was a little lucky that I got to sneak out of the meeting to drive E to her friend's temple for the friend's bat mitzvah service. E was there from 9:45 a.m. till about 1:45 p.m. She rested all afternoon then went to meet seven of her friends at 6 p.m. so they could carpool downtown to the party. I had to stick around to get a pic of the girls all dolled up (below). Andy went downtown at 11 p.m. to bring a group of four girls home. E had a great time.
