July 11th -13th

Our son, Jeremy brought his young people and college career group "The Chosen" from Hurst for a lil' R&R (not rest & relaxation! Recreation & roaring!) We all had a great time. We started off with lunch on Friday, then the motorcycle and Kawasaki mule cranked up for a day or riding, the pool filled up with people needing relief from the heat, some played a "closest to the pen competition for a cash prize, we had a tackle football game, some paddle in the lil' boat on the pond, in the evening we had a bonfire, fireworks, toasted marshmallows, then back to the pool and we chad lights out at midnight.

Saturday more bike and mule riding, more golf, we had a Special Ops Ranger as a guest to instruct all of the inexperienced gun handlers how to PROPERLY handle a firearm then we had a 4 hour skeet shoot, we made homemade ice cream and cake, we played card games, played in the pool and had a wonderful time.


Sunday we all (except 4 who FORGOT to bring Church clothes) went to Church.
It was a great time... So good to see more young people loving God.

Wow looks like you had a house full but sounds like it was a blast with lots of laughter , laughter is the best medicine for anything. Made me want to be a part of the youth group.;0)

Sister Clark, Jeremy caled Monday & said they commented that they thought they were going to a COUNTRY CHURCH! It was very high tec and they enjoyed it very much!

Darlene, we did have a good time. We tried to have plenty for them to do but not be rushed. We tried to have it set up so that they could do something if they wanted or just kick back & relax if they cared to.
