This is Sam taking a nap in the camper on Friday. No, I didn't leave the lights on and I even pulled the shades down...my Grandma made the quilt, isn't it pretty?
So, Sam was pretty dirty most of the weekend...just like this!
We made homemade ice cream on Saturday night. We went thru 11 gallons!
We had a group come and sing. They sounded great and we had a good turnout.
This is church this morning. It was so nice outside. We met at 9am for breakfast and then enjoyed our worship service by the lake. We had plenty of shade and a great message.
We spent this weekend camping for our annual church campout. We did have the luxury of a camper and that was great. It was a hot weekend, but overall, it went great! We have been on the social committee at church for 2 years. This committee plans and mans most of the big church events. Christmas Dinner, New Years Eve, Valentines, Easter, Mother and Fathers Day, the church campout. We have really enjoyed the social committee and even more the couples we have grown to know better thru the committee. This weekend our church participated so well. We had great attendance for all the events, so the planning was well worth it! Our time with the social commmitee is thru, and now we move onto something that will take even more energy!
We have been elected (by the youth) as youth sponsors. We have talked about it and prayed about it and we are both ready for the 2 year challenge! We will attend bible study on most Wednesdays, gatherings on Saturday and sometime Sunday night (in fact Dan is at softball practice as I type). This is a great group of kids and we cannot wait to have a small part in helping them find/continue their relationship with God. Now, for this challenge I am reading a book titled "Holy Wow" It is aimed boosting youth ministry. We have a great youth minister and another energetic couple to work with, and as I mentioned before a supportive church ----so with that said and God's guidance---we are up for the challenge! So, we move from social committee to youth sponsors.
