Weekend Roundup

Friday

* We got to go celebrate a young lady's birthday...She's been my little buddy since she was a tiny little thing. She's like my baby sister & I think the world of her - but she turned 18... EIGHTEEN! 
An adult? 
Shut up
... this kind of stuff blows my mind
...  &makes me feel old



* We ate at a Japenese place
I've never ate at one before
Where they prepare the food in front of you on the hot grill, throwing eggs on their head & making onions into volcanos.
A pretty cool experience
... & YUMMY food

Saturday

*Wanted to sleep in as long as I could because I knew it was going to be a crazy, long, fun-filled weekend

* Packed up & ready to go

* BELIEVE!!!!

I will be posting a whole post about it tomorrow but I gotta upload pictures & when I got home last night, I was exhausted & ready for bed

Sunday

*BELIEVE!!!!

* Getting into my little car after driving a huge rental, extended van for 2 days feels REALLY funny. 
& my car isnt really 'little'
its a Hyundai Santa Fe
Just anything after a extended van seems little

* our van was full of 10 girls
we sang Broadway songs & songs from the Glee soundtrack the whole way
I have no voice today... but it was worth it

I'm so exhausted, I cant even tell you
But it was worth it
seeing kids worshipping God is ALWAYS worth it....
& now, my next half marathon is Saturday
so I'm praying my body recovers & gets pumped

this could be ugly

  1. Your weekend sounds WAY better than mine! Love the recap!

    Good luck on the race...is this the Derby? I have a few friends who are running in it, too! Small world :)

  2. A van of 10 kids? I can barely handle the 4 I have! I would have driven into a ditch just to end it all. You're much stronger than I am.
    Love that photo! She looks cool! Like a rockin' Joan Jet, 2012 version.
    I took some photos of the kids on Friday that I'm posting tomorrow. They've very "R.J.Vincent". I think you'll approve.

  4. Rebecca...I love the composition in your photo. Love how she's holding a quitar, too. Simply beautiful. Singing Broadway tunes would have been right up my alley! I can only imagine the fun y'all had! When kids make a connection with Christ...I can't think of anything better.

  6. Sounds like fun! I remember taking a group of teens to Nashville for International Youth Convention a few hundred years ago. Hubby was the youth pastor at that time. We drove those big vans too! We had a blast and I wouldn't trade those memories for anything!

  7. I love that photo ... beautiful.

    I do not have the patience to work with kids ... but admire those who are called to work with young people. What an awesome reward to see them connect with Christ!
