Jason Collett – Out of Time

I believe the last post on the Harrisonian was sometime in April.  April!  April?!  Are you kidding?!  I’d say we’ve just been really lazy recently…but I suppose we have a bit of an excuse.  Let’s see what the Harrison’s have been up to since the last write-up:

APRIL

* We’d been in our new house a month

* Older sister turned 28!  What a geezer!

* Played my first ever solo-show as a paid musician.  Pretty cool.

* Attended a fantastic William Fitzsimmons concert

MAY

*I spent a week in Canada sharing a bed…I mean bedroom with my Wise Counsel at an amazing Pastor’s Conference

* Amy made trip #1 to Chicago to see friends

* Visited by two of my best friends, Daniel and Zach, for an entire week!

* I played my second-ever concert.  Had my good friend Taylor Hall join me this go-around.  Much, much better this time.

* Little sister turns 20!  AHHH!!!  Oh…and on the same day…

* Find out my wife is pregnant!  AHHH!!!  What?  It was me?  Oh…Hooray!!!

* Me and Amy both turned 25

* Our church staff took a very impactful trip to the Central High School museum

JUNE

* Played third-ever show.  This time with Samuel Boultinghouse on banjo.  Good times had by all.

* Our church’s 25th anniversary!

* DCamp – where I had my first every opportunity to be a Camp Speaker…all in front of 90 Middle School kids!

* Amy trip to Chicago #2 for Willow Creek Arts Conference.  She flies home early though because her grandfather is sent to the hospital (he’s doing well now!).

* VBS at Fellowship with 100+ students throughout the week!

* Amy goes to Memphis to see “Wicked”.  Claims it is the best musical since “Les Miserables”.  She’s actually almost convincing me to take down my boycott on musicals.

* Kentucky Mission Trip Drive-In Fundraiser – we raise $3000+ for our students’ trips.  Simply an amazing night.

JULY

* Head off to Colorado with the college students for the annual backpacking trip.  One of the greatest weeks with students you could ever imagine.  Just a smooth, solid, sweet week.

PRESENT…

Whew…that catches us up.  I just got tired all over again.  While I have a breath, though, here’s a look at the future:

* Big wedding this weekend that me and Ames are both in.  Then…

* Kentucky Mission Trip all next week.

* Staying around for a few days to visit dear friends in that part of the country.

AUGUST

* Best buddy Adam Schaectherle should be visiting these parts to cover a tennis tournament for his employer, Wilson Sporting Goods.  Yeah!

SEPTEMBER

* Me and Amy hoping to actually take a vacation!!!  Maybe a late summer/early fall trip to Chicago.  Trip #3 for her to the Windy City this year, hopefully!

* Oh…and the reason for the trip:  4 year anniversary!

OCTOBER

* My Best Friend’s wedding!  Excited for him.  Very excited.  He found a good one.

* Back to Castle Bluff with Middle School and High School students to start the cycle up once again!

Life is busy, yes…but life is good.  See ya next April…
