Spring BreakAway... 2009

So I just realized I wrote this a long time ago.. and I didn't finish it so i didn't post it.. but anyway, I'm posting now, just so you can have a taste of what BreakAway was like...


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So like, Spring Breakaway was amazing... lol

We left the church like really late; we were all suppose to be there at 11:30am and leave at 12:00pm but after packing up the trailer with all the lugage we pulled out around 1:30pm. :-P

We stopped in Wadesboro, NC for lunch... It was quite delish... And then we drove another 2 hours on to Garden City, NC. We had fun in the car if you can't tell.

Our van was the first to arrive in Garden City and when we got there we found out why the other buses weren't there... my daddy's bus had blown a tire on the way down there! So shortly after we got there Ken and Christie went and got my daddy but they didn't get to Garden City till close to 11pm that night...

The service Friday night was very good though. Our Speaker was Wayne Northup and he spoke on what it really means to be a Christian. And baisically he said that we have to surrender everything we are to God in order for him to use us, we can't just be saved and then keep walking around like the rest of the world, we have to surrender our sinful lifestyles and be obediant to God. It was really good. God taught me somethings that night...

Early Saturday morning we had our Beach Devo. Good stuff.

Saturday morning we had chapel and a quick word from one of Wayne's staff, Andrew.

And then on to the games... I don't have any awesome pics this year because I was to busy getting dirty but the games we pretty awesome. We played Alphabet Slime, Tennis Slip-n-Slide, some sort of Slime Mind Field game, Crabby Duck-Duck-Goose, and you don't even want to know about the Bolonga Relay.... lol I had such a blast though!

Then we had some lunch and then free time...

Then there was a service Saturday night
