6-16-2008 - An Explanation For My Absence...

No, I haven't forgotten y'all, and no, I'm not sick... Let me explain!

Last week (June 9-14) was choir camp. I was a *special helper* and I got to be in the show. Without me and the two other *special helpers* the camp couldn't have happened. =^) It was titled Truth Works and we had to learn it in 4 days. But we learned it in 3... Pardon my bragging. ;-) It was very fun, and time consuming, so I wasn't able to blog much! Or reply to comments... *honestly sorry*

Last night (June 15) was amazing! Our church held a family comedy night at the local Performing Arts Center, that was open and free to the public! There was a Hawaiin Shirt Contest, and we hired a comedian-- Brad Stine. He was wonderful! Please note-- He was a Christian comedian!!! Even better! He was so funny... Here's the schedule of events from last night--

5:00pm-6:00pm--event started, with a dunking booth, target practice, bouncy thing-a-ma-gig, and horse rides! We also ate dinner. (sandwhiches, cookies and drinks; free to everyone!)

6:00pm--childcare opened! My mom and I helped get kids signed in. They had this neat system where the parent would write their kid's name, their name & location, and their cell phone number on a tag that was stuck on the kid's back. Then the parents had a tag with the same number as the one on the kids back. Only with this tag could the parents pick up the kids! It was really cool!

6:30pm--the show began with our church band BOOM-Chick! BOOM-Chick means *Bunch Of Old Men and One Chick*! They played for about 15 minutes. Then the announcer guy person got up and told us 10 things that your dad would never say. =P It was really funny! Then Mrs. R stood up and announced the winner of the Hawaiin Shirt Contest! The second place winner was a good friend of our's dad-- he has nine kids and they all signed his shirt! (by the way, he homeschools all nine) I thought that was cool.

There was a man and his daughter who performed "Who's On First?" Here's a video of the inventors...

It was really funny! And after that a different band sang three songs that were really pretty, then it was the grand finale--Mr. Stine! Here's a link to his website-- http://www.bradstine.com/

Overall, it was an AMAZING night! I just wish y'all could've been there!

Sadly, I won't be able to get on for the next 3 days, because I'll be at horse camp! Hopefully I can get tons of pictures to share with y'all!

Addios for now, amigos,

I don't know how much help I can be, since it's been awhile since I created mine. BookLover might be better at this, so if I don't do well helping you, ask her. LOL

Here is the page:
http://www.widgetbox.com/create/create_widget.jsp

I think you choose the "HTML" option, and then you just follow the instructions from there. I don't remember having trouble personalizing it.

Hope that helps, and when and if you get it up, let me know and I'll add it to the sidebar!

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Quotes...

Only the truly strong and great can be truly tender. Tenderness is a mark of nobility, not of weakness.

James Phillip

Christ uncrowned himself to crown us, and put off his robes to put on our rags, and came down from heaven to keep us out of hell. He fasted forty days that he might feast us to all eternity; he came from heave to earth that he might send us from earth to heaven.

W. Dyer

Jesus Christ did not say, "Go into the world and tell the world that it is quite right.

C.S. Lewis

If God forgives us, we must forgive others. Otherwise it is almost like setting up ourselves as a higher tribunal than him.

C.S. Lewis

We ought to give thanks for all fortune: if it is good, because it is good, if bad, because it works in us patience, humility and the contempt of this world and the hope of our eternal country.

C.S. Lewis
