This morning was début of the "Ardell Family Band".
Mainly, both the keyboardist and lead guitarist were gone this week – so Em and I had to pony up and lead worship. 
It was pretty cool acutally as I have been practicing on my 6-string at lot recently as I have been leading worship for our couples Bible study. I also recently picked up a thumb pick – which made a WORLD of differences in my playing!! Between those two things and the fact that I have been playing the bass most Sundays made today fairly painless.
The wonderful thing was that Em and I both have the same style of worship so it was really easy to flow with the Spirit. Shoot, I found myself so caught up with worshiping I forgot about the church and the music!! It was powerful.
Granted, I still have some work to do before I'm "really" good as there was a few times when I got off beat…but that is part of learning. 
where’s Emily?
Proud of y’all jumping right in there!
where’s Emily?
Who? Oh, you mean the singer?
Em is the one taking the pic as it was a “bit” staged. We didn’t the a photo of the live event. =(
