retreat highlights:
- talking w/ john, sharon, and julie in our small group bout the "ball n chain" and "never say never"
- hearing roymunds potty mouth and watching him try to get into the kayak and fall
- seeing my roomies flip over and then jumping out and going after john and huge

THANKS
for the prayers, the planning, the fun, and the learning.

that our class doesnt let the next 2 months slip by.
instead may we realize that every remaining day is an opportunity to bring glory to God.
lets finish strong.

PRAYER
not just for a fun retreat but a fruitful and meaningful one.

sumi and elise had a sleepover at elise's. they had too much energy and wore me down. i think they watched like 4 movies that night. i watched bring it on w/ em and i kept wondering how i would explain the sexual innuendos if they asked. one time sumi did ask and i just answered it very indirectly and told her to just keep watching the movie.
