Cruise

So, we went to the zoo in the morning and on a cruise in the evening. We were one busy family :) Tom arranged for the teen group to go on a cruise on Friday, April 30th. Actually, we didn't really "go" anywhere. Well, we went to church. But, we didn't *go* on on a cruise. However, the Fellowship Hall was transformed into a cruise ship by a few people. James and Ann Anderson and Stan and Paula Woodbury and I think Abby Joshua (sorry if I missed someone) spent quite a bit of time decorating and setting up and cooking all the food for the teen cruise. Everything turned out really nice and the food was delicious. Mr. Anderson even demonstrated the proper flotation device technique just in case we decided to make like the Titanic :) I, unfortunately, did not get any pictures of that. (You could probably see Tabitha for those!) The kids, also, dressed up in various costumes: some were wild and wacky tourists, others were dressed for a fancy evening meal, and one even looked as though she had barely survived the Titanic ;) I have a few pictures from the evening. It was a really fun night--too bad it wasn't for real!


I guess even the cruise directors are allowed to eat!

Thanks again to everyone who helped make this cruise possible. It was nice not to have to worry about food and decorations and setting up this time. Tom organized the games and did the preaching. I made sure our kids had some type of cruise-y costume. We had a really fun night :)

Next post: Nathan's 14th birthday. I have pictures, but no time. Hopefully, I'll get them on here before the baby comes, but we'll see. Please continue to pray for this baby to make an appearance before the 10th. Thanks!
