Wow, your song leader leads you in "Days of Elijah?" That's progressive! :)

The Brady Bunch! I used to watch them a lot too. I've seen reruns and it's *so* dated, it's funny. :)

Well, we're pretty progressive, for a CoC. Eric(our SL) is always bringing in fresh music. It's great tho--nothing like singing "Days of Elijah" to really get you going at 9:00 on a Sunday morning!

Yeah, Brady Bunch is pretty dated. But so is Partridge Family. I haven't seen any episodes in a long time, but I still remember the colorful get-ups they wore for their concerts. And David Cassidy with his feathered hair and big-collared shirts that were open to his navel.

It was hard choosing which TV shows to list--so many to choose from!

Woo hoo! Emily bought an MP3 player, so I had to figure out how to put music on it. So, I have learned how to do one of the things on my list.
