Went for a bike ride with TP. The goal was to make it to Roland Olson from home. We ended up having to take a different path due to construction on the interstate and ended up near a friend's subdivision so we decided to stop in and say hello. As we were visiting we heard thunder in the direction of home. We left our friends shortly thereafter and headed home. About half way home (6 miles left to ride) it began to rain. Then we got hail. It really stung the skin. We tried to find shelter among the trees but we were still pelted. TP leaned over me so it wasnt' as bad. It hailed a good 5 minutes. After that we started again. The wind was against us pretty good. It was a struggle to go 18mph on a flat path. By the time we were about 12 minutes from home the sun came out. Once we were back in our subdivision we saw a bunch of leaves and small twigs down. But, we made it. :)
It was still a good ride. And I feel pretty good.
Now I have to go and find the garbage cans, try to straighten up the tomatoes, and dry out my i-home.

Finished a week of VBS. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed working it. Tyler had a lot of fun and is excited about attending next year as well. Tyler helped me each morning with checking in kids. He was a big help. Tyler's group consisted of all girls. Lucky boy?! Like his shirt?? He made it on Tuesday. We had some very brave counselors.




The above pictures are of the campout the girls had in the yard on the day of filming.
