24/7. Dinner on Friday, dog park on Saturday, church on Sunday, and work on Monday.

Bingo. I even carry on stage when playing with our worship team.

Both Hubby and I carry on Sunday too. If you put your gun on when she is not looking and it is concealed...... :mrgreen:

As DA mentioned above, we both typically carry to church. When we embarked on this journey of having CHLs, we did it together as a lifestyle change, fully embracing the idea of 24/7 carry, except where prohibited. I know not everyone feels this same way, or does the same things we do, but I do struggle with understanding a more"relaxed" view of carrying. Since I can legally carry a potentially lethal tool that might allow me to save myself or my loved ones in unforeseen cirumstances, I don't ever want to be caught without it -- whether I am in church or anywhere else.

+1 We play with an orchestra that is part of church music program for services and special events and will be putting on a special Patriotic program this afternoon. It gets a little more difficult to carry when there is a specified "uniform" for the group but that is one of the reasons that I got the Kangroo Carry. It might take me slightly longer to get to but at least it isn't back home in the gun safe or locked in the car.
