One of the highlights of my week was when one of the high school students came over to help me pack. Anna was at our house from 10am until after 5pm and she was a slavedriver. And by that I mean, everytime we finished a bookshelf, cupboard, or room, she would say, "What next?" right as I was heading to the couch to sit down and take a break! She was awesome, and we had a great time.
The other highlight was on Wednesday night at our going away party at BOB.
Of course we had to start with singing. It is essential.
Ava gets in on the act.
Jim and Frank, two of the BOB leaders, decided to "roast" Neil. It was hilarious.
We love these kids so much, and are going to miss them like crazy!
Ava with Megs. She was stuffing her face with pretzels, can you tell?
Becca and some of her BFF's. They have been friends since Kindergarten.
Evan with the Frankster.
Me with one of our fearless leaders, Holly.
Neil with a good friend, BOB leader, mentor . . . Jim. Jim has been in middle school ministry since, well, a very long time! His experience shows, and we will miss him so much!
Anyway. A couple girls made us videos that basically made everyone cry. There were much tears, hugs, and love given. I am so thankful for BOB and our experiences here. It has changed us, and made us better, and for that we will be forever grateful.
