Safe Safe Safe

I am happy to report that we have made it to the Wood- as in LakeWOOD.
We got here in record time, though speeding really was kept to a minimum. It was apparent that we were traveling with a several women, and fellas with small bladders, as we made bathroom stops nearly every 2 hours. Funny enough though, before we even left the church I made a public announcement that I refused to stop before Omaha. Unfortunately, Anne D was the one who had to stop in Des Moines. Way to follow instructions, CHAPERONE.

Anyway.

To the church we arrived. Within moments Fort Deemer was being assembled in the basement of Holy Shepherd Lutheran Church. For those of you parents, I'm sure it comes as no surprise, that a group of teenagers can almost completely destroy overtake a room in a matter of seconds. After setting up camp, we ventured to the land of Mindilicious and BillyH (my parents). There we were greeted with the best food EVER and a warm pool.

At this point I think it's important to mention that several of this kids asked me this: "Why would you ever leave this food and house?" Well fine children, YOU are the reason, you little jerks! I love, I love.

By about 9:00pm (10:00 WaveTown time) we were all pretty pooped and bed was clearly the best option. Until we got to the church and a second burst of energy happened. Go figure.... Oh teenage boys you never cease to surprise me. A movie was on, others went to bed, and eventually sleep happend, THANK YOU JESUS.

Overall a wonderful day. Safe travels. Good people. Wonderful hospitality. And Mindilicious. What more can you ask for!?

As for today: Church in 15 minutes, a pool party and BBQ at La Casa de Harkins this afternoon, and probably a host of sunburns to boot. Look for another post later!
