From Babbo to Lex to the Scotts!

So the baton was handed from Babbo to Lexi and the Sherwinator B&B was all a buzz. Lex braved London for 2 weeks, seeing almost everything that you could see, including 2 trips with Lyndal to the theatre to see Chicago and an amazing production of Les Miserables. And of course enjoying the fruits of St Albans!

We (Lex & Lyndal) went to a church service at Westminster Abbey one Sunday which was an interesting experience of 'church'. We were seated in with the choir boys which was pretty cool. It was an hour of feeling like you couldn't move, sniffle, cough, fart or burp which was tough. The 'sermon' could have done with a bit more juice, but the surroundings were awesome and beautiful which made up for it. We wondered what God would think of the whole thing, of what the other 'tourists' thought and why they were there, and of what the cute little blond haired choir boy was thinking when he got distracted from singing and was staring into space, and if he knew what he was singing about when he was in fact singing.

Spicer Street (our church here) has been such a blessing for us. We are so sad to think that we will soon be spending our last Sunday there, perhaps never again to see the friends we have there. God's family truely does spread all over the world. It is funny how we can be so different to people from other countries but be so similar and united because we are God's children. It is cool. And it is cool to have experienced this even if it is hard to say goodbye.


So Lex left us on Thursday and the house is feeling a little quieter which is sad....but at the last minute cousin Brendan and Kim have decided to come and see us for the weekend! No, not from Oz but from Amsterdam where Brendan has been sent for 6 weeks with work. So not to fear, the Sherwinator B&B will be buzzing once more! Not sure when all that packing we are meant to start doing will happen...but hooray for visitors!
