Snow day!

Yes, the weather men were correct...it did snow! I was prepared though. Since I have so much to do to get ready for our next two events for the kids, I brought home plenty of work to keep me busy. Plus I got to talk to many of our church family to reschedule our Olan Mills directory pictures. Oh, and I forgot, I got to talk with Dan Bacon and talk him though the great set up of computers and printers in my office. It was quite an experience for him...i think???

Kid Nation is coming quickly. Right now I have 40 kids signed up! Can you imagine it??? 40 kids in control??? It will be soooo much fun and I am sooo looking forward to it. I have been preparing our schedule for the night and letters to give to the parents on what their children should bring with them. It is always great fun for us all! Special thanks to the adults that come and help me all night. Chip and Jen Baxter, and Angi Gardner. Another adult to be named later will also be there, and our band will be playing before all the kindergarteners and 1st graders leave for the evening. If you didn't get your child signed up...this Sunday is the last chance for all!!!

SuperStart is coming for our 4th & 5th graders! The first weekend of March you will find us having a great night and all day Saturday with many other pre-teens from all over. Last year there were kids from Ky, Ind, Ill, Mich, and W. Vir besides Ohio! This year we will be joined with a group from Michigan. Mel Conover used to go to their church and they will stay with us at our church. It will be a great experience for our kids to meet up with them. Please be in prayer for their group's safty while traveling here for this event!

This weekend our Jr. Highers are heading to Believe. William is going this year and I'm not...I'm sad, since I have been for the past 4 years and love to go but I am excited for William to experience CIY with our group. This year I needed more girls to sign up so that I could go, but that didn't happen...so...hey you 6, 7 & 8th graders...next year sign up!!! Didi...I will miss getting to spend time with you too!!! Please find a few minutes this week to pray for this group. It is an awesome program for our teens and we are very blessed to have Dan and Didi give their time for our kids! THANK YOU BOTH...SO MUCH!

Well, that's it for tonight. I gotta get back to my Kid Nation schedule...woooo hooo!! Type to you later!
