Our Idea Of A Youth Function

Hehehe! So here is some pictures of our latest youth function. It might look boring, but actually it was pretty fun. :) We played a little basketball (of course all I could do was dribble....I couldn't make it into the goal), we ate (of course!!!), we talked, played Leggo's, played air hockey, and the guys played the Xbox. :) Here are some picahtures...I didn't get a bunch, but SOME nonetheless. Ernjoy! :)

The Fruit Tart my mother made

Brownie Trifle I helped my mother make :)

Chocolate and White Chocolate Covered Fruit my mother also made....she got the "baking fever". :) My poor mom she hasn't been able to bake ever since we went on this diet. LoL!

Told ya we had FUN! :) Well, today is Sunday. :) And we had another person get baptized today....that makes a total of 13 baptized and 10 filled with the Holy Ghost within these few weeks! God is AWESOME!!!!!! :)

Welp, that is it for now. :)

Peace, Love, and Chicken Pieces! :)

Weekend Mania!!!!

God is doing AWESOME things in Fort Worth!!!!! It is SO incredible! First we will start with our Fun Bash on Saturday. What we did is we went to some apartment complexes right down the road from our church and set up our Mobile Stage for music and puppets. We also had free snacks, an iPod giveaway, prizes, soccer challenge, jump roping, hula hooping, a bounce house, and basketball. It was a blast!!!! And in result we had 12 new kiddos on the bus Sunday morning, and 7 new teenagers in our youth class!!!!! And, also, we had 6 baptized Sunday morning, and 5 out of the 6 received the Holy Ghost!!!!! God is MOVING in OUR CITY!!!!!!!!!! This past Sunday we also set up our Mobile Stage for church. We had a new location this time. It went over really well!!!! :) Here are some pictures for y'all. We took 549 pictures the whole weekend and there is no way I can put them all up, so I will have to pick and choose. :) ENJOY!!!!!

"A spoonful of sugar......

..helps the medicine go down in the most delightful way!". Buuuut my mommy knows how to brighten my day, and she also knows I don't like medicine and can't have real sugar! :) I LOVE my mother to death! She is my "partner in crime". :) My dad's nickname for her is "Sweet & Low" (evryone gets sooo tickled at that) but you know that saying "dynamites come in small packages"? Yeah. It's very true with my mom! You get to talking about her family or her Pastor and his family......let me just worn you. DO. NOT. DO. IT! Unless you want her to beat you to smithereens! :) My mom is hilarious! Here is a conversation we had a couple of days ago. Mom: "Chas, are you planning on having a long speech at your graduation?" Me: "Umm...yes, Mom. You know me...I love to talk.":) Mom: "Ok. Are you going to say anything about me?" Me: "Of Course!" Mom: "Okay...then I am going to go out when you give your speech." Me: "Why?!" Mom: "Because I am afraid you are going to tell everyone about me not knowing how to load the dishwasher...where plastic goes on top and glass goes on bottom!" Hahahahaha! She always catches me off guard! :) We have the funniest moments together! I am super glad, happy, ecstatic, "awesomeized", and honored to have her as my mother! She is the BEST in the WORLD! She is the GREATEST in the WWW DOT (period)!!!! :) So here are some pictures from Mother's Day. :) ERNJOY! :)

Me and my lovely "sister", Karayan, on Mother's Day

This is like the GREATEST family picture EVER! :)

Everyone is being their normal selves. :)

Dad: Egging me on

Mom: Laughing at my craziness

Me: As normal as can be

Nate: Wishing we would hurry up

Dillon: Just glad to be there :)

Mom and her 'KUDOS' :)

Nathaniel had already changed for the youth outreach we were doing later that day so that was his "reason for hiding" :)

And this is my mom's crosage from this year. One time my dad couldn't find a crosage he liked for her so for about 4 years I have made her crosages...it's our little tradition. Even when I am married I still gotta make 'em for her. :) :) :)

We had an AWESOME day Sunday! The service wasWONDERFUL! I can't wait to see what else God has in store for us! There has been atleast one to get baptized every Sunday of our Pentecost Sunday's so far! God is doing great things! :)

I will soon be posting the pictures from our Springfest this past weekend. And also we have our "Fun Bash" this Saturday. Which is a youth activity. We are going into one our of local apartment complexes and settinng up our mobile truck stage and doing a little fun thing there for the kids. It will be a great activity not only for our youth but also for the kids in the community!

Well, that is it for now! Gotta go get some shuteye. :)

"Peace, Love & Ice Cream...low carb, of course!" :)
