May 3: Winchfield Church

Sunday May 3, Carol, Rory, Ann (John's Granny), David, John, Sophie and I went to Winchfield Church which is where Ann goes to Church, and Rory & Carol were married. The church was built in the 12th century with amazing architecture and memorials inside of it from the 16 and 17th century, and a graveyard with graves from even the 1800s. It was interesting because the service was very traditional, but nice because the words we sung and recited were the same that contemporary services use - so we were saying and expressing the same things to God but in different ways. I appreciate that.

Next we did some photos of Rory & Carol in the church, becuase they were married there almost 26 years ago, which is very special, then photos of them with their kids. It was really nice.
We also went for a walk through the woods behind the church with the English Bluebells, and Sophie made friends with some of the animals in the area.

When we got home, we cleaned out the attic and watched Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and that night John and I went out for a date to The Oatsheaf.. and the Emporium.. and the Fox and Hound - we just checked out a few places, and walked home by street light. It was a ton of fun!
