My daughter's birthday party and this and that
|
We had the birthday party. My daughter had to push the date back to yesterday. We thought we could celebrate last weekend, but of the invited 6 children only 2 were able to come. So we changed to date to the 22nd, since all the children are on school vacation. So we had 10 children to celebrate my daughters 11th birthday with and 8 children ( including my three) to sleep over. They had cake and juice, by the time they were done it was dark outside and I send them out with flashlights while I cleaned up and preped for the next activity. My dh had to work late, so I was on my own. When the kids came in I gave them white t-shirts and markers, you know the special ones that don't wash out. And they all had fun and drew very beautiful pictures on their new ' night gowns'. It was great, but it took much longer than I thought. The food almost burned. After french fries, hot dogs and jello and over a gallon of juice, we watched some movies. Flubber and Madagaskar. Shortly before midnight I turned the lights off. And the girls were giggling and talking and telling each other jokes until 2 in the morning!!!!! Well, on the upside I think that the parents had very quite children today who wanted to go to bed early -lol ! After they all got picked up I tranlated my pastors sermon outline for tomorrow into german. That was fun! After that I got my list ready to go and buy the last things tomorrow. At the spur of the moment we had decided to go to our camper and stay there for the week, right after Christmas. The camper is about 45 minutes away from the house, in the country. It is just far enough so one can go often, but too far to come back to fetch things you forgot too often. And it is very quite! I always enjoy these times in the country. On the downside of things I must admit that I didn't have any time to get to my studies  I really miss it and can't wait until I have time to get back to it!I started reading about spiritual warfare, does anybody want to share any insides about that? I read about speaking in tongues, casting out demons..... what are your thoughts on that? Have a wonderfully, blessed birthday party for Jesus! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all ! Blessings, Michaela <>< |
