Two Days After the Day Before Yesterday

[This is me on the receiving end of the ol' fashioned "Catch-the-dirty-nasty-corn-kernal-in-yer-mouth-whilst-staring-at-the-sun" game.]

This past Saturday I went to the men's prayer breakfast at 7:00, and afterwards I went to Blake's Cider Mill with a group of friends. We ate doughnuts, drank cider, walked through a really wussy haunted house, and petted a llama, traversed endlessly through a corn maze, and raced haphazardly around a track on half-broken tricycles. It was a good time. Then we went to Cloverleaf for pizza and to Rachel Moen's house to watch Madagascar and have a bon-fire.

[It's worth pointing out in this picture that Kathryn and I were attempting to flash our "Corn Maze" gang sign for the picture. My urban visual more or less turned into a "C" with an indiscernable "M" exponent"]

Sunday was the student luncheon for families and it went really well. The students did a great job setting the tables and serving the food and the leaders did an impeccable job in the kitchen having all the food ready to go. The parents loved the video, and the students were nervous to see themselves on it but enjoyed hearing what their friends had to say.
Monday was Brooke's last basketball game of the season and her team's chance to finish 12-0! They are probably the best junior high girls basketball team I have ever watched. Brooke basically owned the first quarter scoring a couple layups and getting a couple steals. In the last quarter, she continued to get steals and rebounds and even sank a 3-pointer to cement a blowout victory. Congratulations Brooke!

While talking athletics, I want to give a shout out to Devin for being the player of the game in his football team's last game of the season. I wasn't able to be at the game, but I have gone to others this season and I'm glad he finished strong.[Danny serving his family]

This morning I taught the senior adults' Bible study because Patrick is out of town. I was able to lead the group in some singing and then preach for about 30 minutes. Afterward I was able to have a good hour-long talk with a lady who attends the group. Now I am looking forward to Oasis tonight with the middle school students. Cheers!
