Love Fest

On Saturday our family worked for something called Love Fest. It is an outreach that has games, groceries, free food, horse rides, and baptisms. I worked as a runner so I just had to make sure that the workers stayed hydrated and everything. Most of the time I actually marked peoples bracelets for the lunch cause they were only allowed to go up two times. My sister, Kathryn, took over that job for me for a little bit so I could ride the horse. Thank you Kathryn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About 100 people got saved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's about it for Love Fest.

Yesterday we started painting decorations for VBS (read post below). We just did the backgrounds for the murals yesterday and today we painted the people and everything else on them today. One of the murals has a picture of two barrel racers and a guy riding a bull, for worship. Another has water, sky, ground, trees, and buffalo, for the "Bible Buffalo Trail". It's really pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Two more are the insides of a farmhouse, both have windows on them and it's really cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That ones for the "Saddle-up Science Lab".  And we're putting a gate around the "Craft Corral", which is where I'm working. And then the last place is the "Snack Stampede", we painted a stampede of horses on the window for that one.

I am really excited about this VBS cause, like I mentioned in the last post, I am turning 13 on the first day but it is also my first time playing with a band. I will be singing and playing the keyboard.

That's pretty much it.

Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School is coming up at our church. I'm to old to do the games and crafts and everything but I do work there. My aunt and I do the craft section. Our theme this year is going to be Rattlesnake Roundup.  It starts June 28 and ends July 1st. I am especially excited because my birthday is also coming up. It actually starts on the first day of VBS (Vacation Bible School). I am going to be thirteen and I can't wait. I will be working on my birthday but that's okay because I love kids. Well, that's pretty much it.
