wow, where did the day go?
Today the Sublett Clan celebrated the birth of Levi, our eldest, the new teenager. It’s hard to believe that we have a 13 year old son…He wanted to hit the Texas Roadhouse for some grub tonight. Kim and I decided to surprise him with a cellular telephone to celebrate his arrival into the teenage years. We have been debating it for a while, so we pulled the trigger today.
We also upgraded our own phones so that we can txt our new small group! Last year we had the 12th graders, and they knew to call, since we didn’t have texting on our ancient phones. Kim’s also going to be creating a facebook account so that she can stay in touch with her 9th grade girls. Now we just have to figure out how these phones work. I’m guessing that Levi will his (and ours) figured out first!
Over the weekend we took our senior high students on the annual Destination Unknown! We loaded up 7 vans around 6 Saturday morning and headed off for Darien Lake and Niagara Falls. We had a blast! It was such a good trip for connecting with students and all the new leaders who have joined us. The weather was cool, and the Falls were simply stunning! We did the Cave of the Winds tour and rode the Maid of the Mist. The place was packed with tourists, which was a little surprising. We got behind schedule, and didn’t leave NY as early as we wanted. The ride home was brutal. There’s really no place to stop for the potty break between Holiday Valley and Clearfield. 60 people, 1 bathroom. Not 1 for boys, 1 for girls…just 1. Oh well, we had lots of time in the parking lot to bond together.
I’ll post some pics from the weekend later this week.
It’s late, I’m still bushed, and I’m off to bed…
