We're in the middle of what our church is calling #30daysofthanks.  Every day there is an opportunity or two to serve our city with one of our outreach partners.  Today, along with my eGroup, I served at a Habitat for Humanity house.  Here is a picture that I saw of us on Twitter.  It was taken by Adam Hobbs. 

 Yes, that's my group standing around (minus Jody who was at the Clemson football game).  Here we are cleaning the mud off of the floors in the house:

 

After helping, we went to Mac's Speed Shop for some awesome BBQ!  I think we giggled the whole time.  I love my eGirls so much.  If you'd like to learn more about our outreach initiative check out our Outreach blog: http://elevationoutreach.com/

The Notebook

Last night I tweeted this photo of Scott watching "The Notebook" with Greta. 

 

When I woke up this morning Scott had seen the pic and tweeted this back....

"So where's the pic of me leaving because I couldn't take any more?  Should have been a ghostly pic of me fleeing the room".  

In his defense, he did only last about 5 minutes....if that.  But my Twitter followers don't know that.....

I read that cats are the most common internet meme.  Here's mine:

Funny Story

So as I've mentioned before, I'm addicted to Twitter.  A couple of months ago, I got an email that one of the members of the David Crowder Band was following me on Twitter.  So, I followed him back.  Clearly, he became my favorite!  I have been lucky enough to tweet back and forth with him several times over the past week.  My best guess is that there is some sort of race between the band members to see who can get the most Twitter followers b/c within 3 days of tweeting with Mike, I was being "followed" by 3 more members of the DC*B. 

Fast forward to the weekend.  I got an email that Chris August was following me on Twitter...so I followed him back.  For those of you who don't know, Chris is the writer/singer of "Starry Night" (among other songs) which was named the Dove Award 2011 Song of the Year.  Chris also won "New Artist of the Year" for 2011.  Chris is currently on tour with the David Crowder Band. 

Well on Monday, Chris tweeted:

"I got yelled at by TSA for trying to walk through the scanner with pens in my shirt pocket...She was embarrassed."

So I tweeted back to Chris, "So you're saying that YOU are wearing pens in your pocket and SHE was the one embarrassed? ;-)"

And within minutes he tweeted me back:  :"@jlanford look at the pic...the Pens are printed on the shirt"  

Oops!  So I tweeted him back that I was the one embarrassed now.  :-) 

I thought it was cool that out of his 20,000+ followers I was one of 2 people that he replied to about the shirt. It definitely brightened up my Monday.

Here is a picture that Bwhack from DC*B tweeted of Mark, Mike & Chris August on the tour bus.  This is why me and so many others are getting messages from the guys.

I have to say that the David Crowder Band must be the nicest band in the world.  Too bad this is their last tour....

David Crowder Band

Tuesday, Scott and I went to see the David Crowder Band at the Fillmore in Charlotte.  It was an awesome show!

And through the magical world of Twitter....this is my new twitter "friend" Mike:  He told me that they would bring their "A game" and he was right! 

Have I mentioned that I am addicted to Twitter?  :-)
