Saturday-a day of fun sightseeing!!!

above are some fun pics from sightseeing. we took the group of 42 young teenagers into the heart of manhattan for some serious sightseeing. some of the sights we saw include the statue of liberty, ellis island(home of the immigrants), grand central station, and finally time square. the group was really tired that day, so they kinda got crabby toward the end of the day, however, assinging myself to the troop moral officer, i managed to give a bunch of my girls a good time by taking them where a kid can be a kid, toys r us! inside the store they had a full size ferris wheel. after the toy store i took them to mcdonald's for some ice cream and coke. the girls seemed to have a better time and the over all attitude seemed to improve. sunday was fun and full of church and service. we fed all the congregation of about 120 people brats and cheese curds. i was originally supposed to go into the regular church serivice, but they needed someone for a "special" job. little did i know i was going to watch 15 kids from the ages of 2-15 for three hours in an 80 degree room. so, needless to say, we sang lots of songs and played thumbs up seven up for hours. that evening i got to spend some really special time with the girls in my room and we talked about everything under the sun, just quality girl talk. it was awesome. that night we also kicked off our vacation bible school. sorry if this was a long post, but they were some really fun days!!!! luv ya
