Busy busy busy

Hey everyone!

So it's been a couple of days since my last update but let me tell you, we've been working NON-STOP! Of course that's how I like things even though I am a little tired today. On Sunday Nick and I taught our first class. I think it went well and I had a lot of fun teaching. Basically we just talked about ourselves, told a few funny stories, while wanting the kids to warm up to us and see what we're really about.

I got to spend some time with AJ on Sunday. We ate lunch together and it was really good. We had some great conversations and it was really good to spend some one-on-one time with her. After lunch I worked on a few things at home while Kim got ready for a pool party they were having that night. I went back to the church for worship and class. I'll be teaching the Senior High girls every week that I'm in town. They had a great teacher named Mrs.Bop and it will be hard to take over her role. We'll see how it goes!

After church we ate at CiCi's (yum...I'm so pizza-ed out). I had a good chance to hang out with everyone. These kids are hysterical! Once we were done eating a big group of us went to play LaserTag. It was SO MUCH FUN! George kept saying "I love my job." as he continued to beat everyone in the game. I came in 21st place out of 23rd. Good thing I'm not a sniper for the army...

On Monday we came into work to wrap up filming for the KickOff video. Once we were done working we went to George's parent's house in Holiday, TN. It was GREAT. Mr. Welty cooked pork stakes and Mrs. Welty made green beans (which I devoured 3 helpings of), mashed potatoes, crescent roles, and an amazing chesspie. Yum!! Courtney, George and Nick rode the 4-wheeler too. It was a great evening overall.

Yesterday I came into work around 8:20am to start editing the video. I edited all day long. I did take a break for lunch and to go hand out IcePops to the middle school right down the street from the church. That was fun and I wonder the AuburnCoC could do that for the schools in our community...or something like that. I spent the rest of the afternoon editing and well into the night. Courtney and I worked until 1:30am and I went to bed around 2am.

I'm sitting in the office right now waiting for George to come back so we can proof the video. The KickOff starts tonight at 7pm so say a little prayer that everything goes smoothly (and that I can take a nap sometime today). I'm so sleepy...well thanks for reading! Take care
