Today was our "day off" and almost everyone agreed that we should sleep in, have pancakes and bacon, hang out and then go to a mall. Everyone was woken up by one of the adults cell phone alarms (I will leave out the culprit) around 7 and then we fell back asleep until the boys were woken up by a crazy barking dog-outside of course-around 8am. We got up, ate, debriefed our time with Cindy--who laughed at times and used her "surprised" voice saying, "shut the front door!!" aaaahhhh, I can here her saying it now. We got ready and went to the mall of all places just to get out a bit. That was not too exciting, but on the whole, we did not want to do anything too organized. We got back to set up for the kids club, which I have not said includes carrying for around 100 or so feet 2 inflatable bounce houses that together probably weigh 500 lbs. When we were about 30 minutes before the start of the kids club, we realized we did not have the keys to the trailer all of the stuff resides in. After some craziness, we decided to use bolt cutters to cut the 5 locks off and just replace them with new ones. We set the stuff up in record time tonight. The gospel was shared, and we were able to share individually with 2 kids who were really listening and interested, but God still needs some time to work on them. We had a great day and the teenagers got together to buy Tammy Starr something nice for doing all the cooking (very nice coffee mug and super good local coffee). There were some other crazy events that happened that I will let your own kids tell you. When all was wound down tonight, we were treated to what has been affectionately called "Creamy Brooley" which is American for Creme Brulee which Alex took lots of time to prepare for us today (we used coffee mugs). It was very good and after the creme brulee we ate buffalo chicken dip and coke. Our stomachs are full and now I, Brett, have take a shower and get to bed. Its 11:40.
12:05am: I, Luke, got bored and fixed the HTML so the text is no longer one giant link :) Night all!
Creme Brulee
Vietnamese food from yesterday
barking dogs& alarms would be "endangered" if I had been there!! Glad you all had sometime to chill.

ReplyDeleteAlexander did it! Congrats on pulling creme brulee off in less than optimal conditions. Now you all know why we keep him around! It's his cooking!
