It was fund raiser for camp day yesterday. Actually, this was the craft fair in Sea Isle that got postponed almost a month ago. Rescheduled for yesterday, then rescheduled again for today because of anticipated inclement weather, then back on for yesterday, and now on for both days. Quite the wild and crazy ride.
Cailyn
and Josiah of the Seaside Kids going to camp were there to work. Noa joined in just for fun, even though she’s
a little too young for camp just yet. A
good batch of Seasiders was there as well to help Ray with burger flipping and
hollering for customers. Even with the threat
of rain and the postponement/not postponement/tow days decisions, we received
lots of donations towards camp. Rumor
has it that we made a little over $1100.
And since the fair was extended an extra day, a few Seasiders are going
to man the grill with Ray again today. The
kids won’t be there, though. Back in
church for them, especially since Josiah and Noa are both getting baptized in the
Gulf today.
Back
at the house, Uncle Josh organized a hot and heavy game of chance at the dining
room table. Ezra and AnnaGrace took Nani
outside to do some serious swinging.
Josiah was pretty intently studying a certain video screen. I was, too.
Except I was focused on the Astros game (after I woke up).
A
street football game broke out at one point, and somewhere in there Brennan
joined the crowd. AnnaGrace took Freddy
for a walk. And finally we all enjoyed
tacos for supper. We ended the night
watching the Astros find yet another way to lose a game in the 11th
inning.
John
10:11 says, “I am the Good Shepherd.
The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.”
Father,
it is good to be home. Please touch
Josiah and Noa today as they are baptized.
Help this be something really special for them, as well as for the whole
family. Amen.
