Missionfuge 2011

Sunday - We left at about 2 pm to head towards Missionfuge in Charleston, SC with the youth. I drove my van so that we would have a vehicle going up in case needed and also while we were there! About an hour down the road, we heard a large pop and saw a tire from the big bus fly towards us. Luckily, it hit the road and bounced enough to get out of our way. Mr Ricky was driving the big bus and drove it slowly off the road where they proceeded to change the tire. So our first stop happened pretty quickly!

We ended up back on the road and made really good time till our overnight stop in Newport. The kids traveled so well but they were exhausted and passed out!
Monday - Paityn woke up so happy!


Britton was excited to get to ride in the bus with Papa.

Loved the view as we drove through the mountains.

We stopped for lunch at a mall so the youth could run around for a little while.
Of course, Britton had to ride the carousal!
I know he is going to have a great time with the youth this week.
Josh and Paityn had been walking holding hands and I missed it!

Run Britton!



It was Jessica's 16th birthday and Eric got her the perfect card and necklace.

We finally reached Charleston Southern University and it was hot!

All of the girls

until we realized a couple were missing and took another picture!
The boys.
Lincoln kept hiding from the camera!
Britton loves Mitchell!
Britton drank so much water!
He also loved this ball.

Silly boy!

Look at my footprints!

Even Paityn started warming up to the youth.

Tonight we started worship and what an amazing experience to see 600 youth praising God.
Watching Britton clap his hands and sing was awesome.

Love these kids and am so looking forward to this experience with them.
